Marvel has found its new 'Iron Man' to lead the MCU going forward

When the MCU was first created, it was Iron Man who led the charge.

Although the character wasn’t in every project developed, Marvel had found its face to front the entire campaign.

But with Iron Man’s time now over, a new face needs to be chosen.

It would appear that Marvel has found its new “Iron Man” lead.

Take a look at Marvel Studios' plans for the future

Phase 5 is almost over. There’s a lot of interesting irons in the fire for that finale, but ultimately its end will mark the beginning of a new MCU era.

A distinctive character needs to head that change.

Scarlet Witch is exactly the type of leader the MCU needs.

“Can we just accept that Scarlet Witch has become the new face of the MCU?” posted Twitter user CovenofChaoss, “She’s easily the most talked-about and anticipated character right now, and her impact is undeniable!”

They’re not wrong.

The number of times Wanda was mentioned in Agatha All Along alone was enough to have fans doubling down on their belief that she’s not dead.

Despite no surprise cameo, all roads seem to lead to Scarlet Witch.

Marvel Studios is aware of this why they are making 3 spinoffs to her show plus a Scarlet Witch movie and give her a major role in the Avengers movies https://t.co/DeDfdsKtRe

In case we had any doubts about this, @MyTimeToShineH said, “Marvel Studios is aware of this, [that’s] why they are making three spinoffs to her show plus a Scarlet Witch movie and give her a major role in the Avengers movies.”

“Clearly, Marvel knows Wanda is a fan favorite. With all these spinoffs and a solo movie, she’s becoming the centrepiece of the MCU!” continued @Varunreddy_208.

With how Agatha All Along ended, the WandaVision sequel we want has been teased for Phase 6.

Not to mention a Phase 6 MCU movie we’ve been begging for.

If Scarlet Witch isn’t the new “Iron Man” of the MCU, we won’t just be surprised, we’ll be livid.

Your move, Marvel.
