WandaVision’s most iconic line, “What is grief, if not love persevering?” was actually written during the filming of the scene. The line, delivered by Vision during a flashback in the episode “Previously On,” was immediately grabbed onto by fans as being emblematic of the MCU show’s big overarching themes of love and loss. It’s quickly solidified itself as one of the most recognizable and beloved lines in the entire franchise.
The story of WandaVision is a story of grief. After years of tragedy push Scarlet Witch to a breaking point – losing her brother, lover, and even her own life before being brought back in the Blip – she unintentionally casts a massive spell over the town of Westview, resurrecting Vision and turning the entire town into puppet show of classic TV sitcom tropes. Inevitably, Wanda must face the illusion at the end of the show, accepting her grief and bidding farewell to Vision as the hex crumbles around her.
It’s a poignant and immensely powerful story and one that’s beautifully summed up in Vision’s line about the nature of grief. But according to screenwriter Laura Donney, who penned “Previously On,” the line didn’t reach its final form until the scene was actually being filmed. In an interview with A.V. Club, Donney revealed that the original line in the script, which she refused to share, had a similar purpose but wasn’t quite the same. Read her full quote below.
“The way Jac Schaeffer tells it, they were all inspired to distill it down to the truth of what was being felt in the moment. So, it became a combination of the line on the page and what they magically cobbled together on set. To get all that attention alone, as an anxious person, it was overwhelming. It was also because I was getting all the credit when I felt it should be shared. At one point, I was like ‘Doesn’t everyone understand how writers rooms work?’. But what matters is the sentiment, and clearly that line struck a chord.”
Given that the grief line has become the calling card of the entire series, it’s fun to know that the words were ultimately a collaborative product, contributed to by the cast and crew as well as the writers themselves. WandaVision’s personal narrative and deeply emotional storyline pushed it into the upper echelon of the MCU, and that kind of success doesn’t come from just one source. But of course, special acknowledgement must be given to Donney, who’s been nominated for an Emmy for her work on “Previously On.”
Though she comes to terms with her grief by the end of WandaVision, Scarlet Witch’s journey of self-realization is far from over. She’ll return in 2022’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness alongside the eponymous Sorcerer Supreme, where she may be undertaking a journey to rescue her vanished children, Wiccan and Speed. Grief may be love persevering, but Wanda’s love for her children may persevere far beyond grief and into some new adventures after WandaVision.
