The first three episodes of WandaVision are now available to watch on Disney + and feature an exciting cast. A big name who joined the Marvel cinematic universe for the new series is Debra Jo Rupp, best known for playing Kitty Forman in This 70’s program. ComicBook.com recently talked to Rupp about his sitcom days, and she revealed that she didn’t mind missing the ’70s episode of WandaVision. We also asked Rupp if she was familiar with the Marvel cinematic universe before entering it, and she explained how she went from not knowing anything to being too attached to certain characters to watch Avengers: Endgame.
“I didn’t know anything,” said Rupp of the MCU. “I thought it was a cartoon, I thought, well, I knew that comics were involved, but I never was … science fiction is not my thing. It just needs to be real, in front of me. I felt the same way with geometry. There’s nothing real about geometry. They are points on planes that are, I don’t care. So I didn’t know anything. I didn’t know anything. I just knew, you know, my great-nephew said : ‘Aunt Debbie, if you don’t,’ then I did it for him. And then I got there, got involved and I’m impressed with how big the world is. I’m impressed with the fans and what they separate and the that they, you know, I mean, I don’t blame them because nothing is what it seems in the Marvel world, but it took me a while to figure it out. “
“We had the luxury of a week of rehearsal, which is how sitcoms are made. I mean, we did everything, it was the way it was done. We did it. So we had a week of rehearsal before filming. I learned a lot from the paul [Bettany] and Lizzie [Olsen]. And then they told me which movies to watch. And then I ended up watching a lot of people who didn’t even send me over because I got involved. I can’t watch the last one, the Endgame thing, because I feel like the people I care about die. And so I don’t want to leave, no, this is my age now. I just want happy things. I don’t want to think about it. I just want happy things. So, I can’t watch this. I am very happy to be part of this world. It makes me very happy. “
We also asked Rupp whether keeping spoilers from Marvel has been difficult, as his usual projects usually don’t involve so much secrecy.
“No, because few people knew I was in it, so no one asked me. I said, ‘Hello?’ And honestly, with secrecy, I know what I did. I mean, I never had a complete script, I know what I did. So, I created a story around that. Yes. Then we’ll see. “
