Now that Netflix’s Marvel shows.

First in line in this new era in the MCU is WandaVision, a TV series focused on Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany). Set after the events of Ant-Man the Wasp’s Jimmy Woo (Randall Park).

The latter’s appearance in WandaVision was made possible thanks to the FBI’s intervention in the investigation of a missing witness and Westview in general, and thanks to the combined efforts of Jimmy, Darcy, and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), S.W.O.R.D.’s acting director Tyler Hayward (Josh Stamberg) was arrested and the FBI took over. While many viewers were happy to see Jimmy Woo again and in a more relevant role than in Ant-Man and the Wasp, others feel his appearance was a bit suspicious, coming up with a theory on how Wandavision is actually secret FBI propaganda, as suggested by The Guardian. It all starts with the use of the FBI logo, which The Guardian explains requires approval from the agency, and WandaVision had Jimmy and other agents wearing their FBI jackets.

Another piece of evidence they provide is the special thanks to the Department of Defense in Captain Marvel, and in order for the collaboration to happen, they have to give the Pentagon “total script approval rights”, so having a “special thanks” to the Pentagon in the end credits of WandaVision would point at the government having a final say on the script, thus validating the theory of the show being FBI propaganda.

Of course, the MCU’s examples are not the first collaborations between Hollywood and the US government in film history. The biggest example, as also pointed out by The Guardian, is The Silence of the Lambs, as according to producer Ed Saxon, the FBI tried to turn the movie into propaganda for the recruitment of female agents.

While the involvement of the FBI and the US government in WandaVision wouldn’t be surprising, it seems unlikely that the series, through the addition of Jimmy Woo, is secret FBI propaganda. Jimmy Woo’s appearance was necessary as he’s the link between the FBI, S.W.O.R.D., and the rest of the MCU, and is a character that viewers were left wanting more of after his brief but fun debut in Ant-Man and the Wasp.
