Geraldine has become a huge mystery on the new Marvel series WandaVision, which is streaming now on Disney+.

The third episode of the nine-episode limited series just premiered and Teyonah Parris‘ character Geraldine played a huge role. We’re so fascinated by what happened in the last few moments of the episode specifically!

In 2019, it was announced that Teyonah would be taking the role of Monica Rambeau.

In the comics Monica Rambeau was born in New Orleans, Louisiana and gained powers after being hit with extra-dimensional energy. Initially she would be also called Captain Marvel. She would then change her name to Pulsar, and then eventually become Spectrum which she is known in the comic books today.

Teyonah Parris is introduced in WandaVision‘s second episode as a woman named Geraldine, but fans who have been paying attention to the show’s development know that she’s really someone else.

It was announced back in July 2019 that Teyonah was cast as the adult version of Monica Rambeau and that the events in WandaVision take place after the events in Avengers: Endgame.

For now, the first two episodes of WandaVision have us trapped in a sitcom starring Elizabeth Olsen‘s Wanda Maximoff and Paul Bettany‘s Vision. It seems there is more to the story and we’ll have to wait and see what’s really going on!

On her role in the series, Teyonah told ComicBook.com, “I can say that you do meet Geraldine, in the first couple of episodes. And so trying to figure out how this connects to Wanda and Vision, and yes, is part of the fun of the show. And is that Monica or is, she said her name’s Geraldine? Who is this? I think that’s part of the excitement that you’ll get to try to figure out as you watch the show.”

The role of Monica Rambeau was introduced as a young girl in Captain Marvel, which took place in 1995.

Jordan Peele‘s new horror Candyman is getting a brand new release date due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

The reboot of the classic 1992 slasher film was supposed to be released on June 12 and will now hit theaters on Sept. 25, 2020.

Jordan Peele co-wrote the Candyman remake with Win Rosenfeld and DaCosta. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Teyonah Parris star in the movie from Universal Pictures and MGM.

Universal’s film Praise This, previously set for release on Sept. 25, is now without a release date and will be scheduled at a later time (Variety reports).

Universal has already pushed three major movies, including Minions: Rise of Gru, Fast & Furious entry F9 and Sing 2, in addition removing Wicked from the release calendar.

It looks like Jordan Peele is going to deliver ANOTHER hit horror film! The trailer for Candyman just debuted and it does not disappoint! He wrote the film alongside Win Rosenfeld and Nia DaCosta. Nia directed the movie.

Here’s a synopsis: For as long as residents can remember, the housing projects of Chicago’s Cabrini Green neighborhood were terrorized by a word-of-mouth ghost story about a supernatural killer with a hook for a hand, easily summoned by those daring to repeat his name five times into a mirror. In present day, a decade after the last of the Cabrini towers were torn down, visual artist Anthony McCoy (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) and his girlfriend, gallery director Brianna Cartwright (Teyonah Parris), move into a luxury loft condo in Cabrini, now gentrified beyond recognition and inhabited by upwardly mobile millennials.

With Anthony’s painting career on the brink of stalling, a chance encounter with a Cabrini Green old-timer (Colman Domingo) exposes Anthony to the tragically horrific nature of the true story behind Candyman. Anxious to maintain his status in the Chicago art world, Anthony begins to explore these macabre details in his studio as fresh grist for paintings, unknowingly opening a door to a complex past that unravels his own sanity and unleashes a terrifyingly viral wave of violence that puts him on a collision course with destiny.

The film will hit theaters on June 12!
