WandaVision Interview: Teyonah Parris on Monica’s Powers, Advice from Anthony Mackie and More!

Scoring a role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe was a long time coming for Teyonah Parris. While on Collider Ladies Night, Parris revealed that WandaVision wasn’t the first MCU project she put herself on tape for. In fact, she’s been making tapes for Marvel for roughly a decade now. But perhaps one could say snagging the role of Monica Rambeau was well worth the wait. Not only did Parris wind up playing a character who shines in Marvel’s very first Disney+ series, but Monica also appears to have a mighty bright future in the franchise. On top of that? Pre-WandaVision, Parris was still busy wracking up one impressive credit after the next including Chi-Raq, Survivor’s Remorse and so much more!We did get the chance to touch on a whole bunch of those non-MCU titles in this episode of Collider Ladies Night but, of course, we had to put a good deal of the spotlight on Parris’ work as Monica in WandaVision, beginning with her audition for the role. Check out what she had to say about that, some of Monica’s biggest scenes in WandaVision and so much more in this edition of Collider Ladies Night! Learn more about your ad choices.
