Literally the devil. Ghost rider sold his soul to him.

Wait, Ghost Rider? Aside from the questionable connection between MCU/AoS, is mephisto already in the MCU? We saw the "Rider" (the demon thing who actually possessed people to make them the Ghost Rider) in Agents of Shield.

So I'm looking at pictures of Mephisto on the web. Is this character supposed to be a devil, something like that? Like many of the Marvel characters, Mephisto is a name I've heard of but know nothing about.
He is "a" devil; not necessarily "THE" Devil.

Depends on the author and story, but for the vast part of his history he has been presented as "a" devil who takes advantage, among other things, Christian and other religions and mythologies.

the various ghost riders are imbued with power from different demons/angels/fallen angels.

I thought Marvel came out a couple years ago with him being the literal devil as in biblical as well as the comic book devil?

But is he the robot devil?

They heavily implied it in the Mother of Demons story, but it is not "confirmed" as he was never officially named as such.

The Marvel website makes it clear that Mephisto is "not the devil of the Bible."

But he claims to be, for his own purposes.

More convinced than ever that Wanda "made a deal."

One normal life with Vision. Marriage, kids, the American dream.

But the devil turned the dream into a sitcom. A fake American dream. And the clock is ticking fast. Those kids will be grown before you can say Arrested Development.

The big bad is Mephisto. Agnes is in on it.

Then why did she have that moment where she said the pale, exploded head Vision

Never saw that movie, as that one came out during the time that I had decided I was no longer seeing comic based movies (as a result of turds like all of the original Batman sequels, as well as Spider-Man 3 and the original version of The Hulk). Missed seeing Iron Man in theaters because of that.

Shes doing some of it. Mephisto brought Viz back. That's the bargain.

Have the announced what the future of this show is? Is this a one and done limited series or is there a possibility of a season 2? Or does it just function as a set up for Dr Strange 2?

I don't know anything official, but I can't see how this carries into a 2nd season.

Yeah, surely this is just a mini-series.

I kind of hope that's how all of the live action MCU shows are unless they're going to set some outside of where we are in the main MCU timeline.

It depends on how well the Disney+ streaming service is doing and whether they will make more money with a box office release??

I have to assume this is setting up movies.

That way, you have to buy the streaming service AND buy the theater tickets.

I'd think it would be part that and part the difficulty of trying to map out shows and movies whose events are all supposedly happening at the same time.

It was announced that it's only one season.

I could see something like Falcon and Winter Soldier being multiple seasons if the are going on different missions etc. WandaVision can't go too long because of the setup.

Need a full season of hilarious outtakes from these sitcoms.

These "seasons" are effectively 3 hour movies, which in today's world is a genius move. I know they were planning this well before COVID but its worked out to be a great move.

Shows like Hawkeye, She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel, etc. will get multiple seasons.

Shows like Wandavision, Secret Wars, and Armor Wars won't.

Shows like Falcon and the Winter Soldier could go either way.

Am I the only one that hopes it isn't a Mephisto character? Just seems really weird and a rather dark direction for Disney... maybe a wink and and a nod but I don't know that you need that in order to explain this plot.

I actually thought the Gollum split personality take was pretty believable but also agree there has to be someone pulling the strings. Who knows, maybe it is Mephisto but I know I'd have a harder time explaining that one to my 8 & 6 yr old who've loved MCU and WV to date. I dunno.

season 2 could all be reality TV tropes.

Start off funny/lighthearted
  • Candid Camera
  • Dick Clarks Bloopers and Practical Jokes
  • Westview's funniest home videos (complete with Bob Saget cameo)

Start getting more serious
  • MTVs Real World
  • Survivor
  • Joe Millionaire
  • Jersey Shore
  • Real Housewives of Westview
  • Trading Spouses (maybe finally meet Agnes' husband)
  • Keeping up with the Maximoffs
  • Naked and Afraid

Bob Saget in the MCU with an Olsen would be epic.

i want Dave Coulier to walk into the 90s episode this season and say "Wanda, Cut it out." but in an ominous sort of way. Maybe they need to send something in from the 90s so it doesn't change, so they bring in Dave Coulier, lol. Dave shows up in a suit or something, and when he walks through the wall, it turns into an ugly sweater.

Forgot about Loki. That show could probably go a few seasons if Hiddleston wants it. Lots of things you can do with his storyline now.

Late to the party, but that was awesome... This show is like Marvel does Lost and I'm loving all the little meta details and puzzles.


Count me in the camp of Agness is the bad guy... but not really. And will end up helping Wanda in the end. I think Mephisto or Nightmare is behind this, but they will be some kind of post-credits/big reveal to lead into Dr Strange 2, in which Wanda will be the team-up.

I think it's going to be a big name actor, although hard to imagine Marvel has been able to keep it under wraps. My guess is either Ethan Hawke or Keanu. The final scene will be Vision talking with them (before Vision dies again for good) and tells them they will lose or something like that...

Paul Bettany is on record saying he gets to work with someone he's always wanted to and was super excited about it. Evan Peters is amazing, but I doubt that's who he was referring to.
