WandaVision: Will Pietro Maximoff Make an Appearance?

Geraldine/Monica seems somewhat disturbed by Wanda’s reaction to the memory, and it leads to her being summarily dismissed from the equation, but Marvel fans are wondering now more than ever if Pietro could turn up in future episodes of WandaVision. After all, Wanda watched Vision die twice and he appears to be very much alive, at least in this reality. Will Wanda – or whoever else is involved in creating the weird sitcom universe of Westview – bring Pietro back from the dead as part of her comforting family bubble? Chances are actually fairly high!

At a 2015 screening and Q&A for Avengers: Age of Ultron, Marvel boss Kevin Feige vehemently denied that Quicksilver would rise from the grave, but clearly chose his words carefully even as this information was relayed to fans on the Marvel Studios subreddit:

“Quiksilver(sic) is DEAD. 100%, he’s not coming back any time soon, there are no plans. No LMD, no escaping bullets, no retcon. Kevin Feige said he is dead and wanted to make sure people understood that.”

Director Joss Whedon explained that, in killing Pietro during the climax of Age of Ultron, “the intent was to earn this, and then you have to stand by it” but the actor who played Pietro in the MCU, Kick Ass star Aaron Taylor-Johnson, has said he would “absolutely” reprise the role given the opportunity.

There have also been reports swirling for almost a year around the possible WandaVision appearance of Evan Peters, who served as the X-Men’s version of Pietro Maximoff. These reports were recently refuelled by a now-deleted tweet from Peters’ Spanish X-Men voice actor, Rodri Martin, which seemed to confirm that Peters had a role in the series.
