The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallontook onWandaVisionon Wednesday night with a new parody featuring Elizabeth Olsen. DubbedFallonVision, the segment begins with aTonight Showintro that’s reminiscent of the 1950s as Fallon introduces Olsen as his guest. As the interview progresses, Jimmy and Elizabeth traverse through different time periods ofThe Tonight Showwith their looks changing accordingly. You can watch the parody below.
During the sketch, Olsen catches on that she’s in some kind of time warp that Jimmy is somehow orchestrating. The 90s version of Elizabeth surmises that Fallon is doing all this because he wants to return to when things were normal, before the pandemic. After getting a pep talk from theWandaVisionstar about how it’s necessary to just let it go, Fallon’sTonight Showreturns to its 2021 format… only for it to be revealed that a certain someone else by the name ofKathryn Hahnwas behind the whole fiasco.
“What can I say? TV just isn’t what it used to be,” Hahn says with a wink.
TheWandaVisionparody arrives shortly before the show’s final episode. After eight episodes have previously been released, the series will culminate with what’s likely to be the heaviest episode of them all. It could also end up becoming theseriesfinale as director Matt Shakman recently confirmed that there are currently no plans for Marvel Studios to produce a second season.
Fortunately, Wanda’s story will continue to be told in the MCU onceWandaVisionis over. Olsen will star alongside Benedict Cumberbatch in the upcoming sequelDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which is due to release next year. Shakman has also said that he’s consulted directly withDoctor Strange 2director Sam Raimi about Wanda’s story arc, so it is expected that her role in that movie will pick up soon afterWandaVisionleaves off.
