Teyonah Parris’s resume on both screen and stage is extensive, but that doesn’t mean the actor wasn’t a little trepidatious about taking on her most iconic role to date, suiting up as Monica Rambeau in Marvel’s “WandaVision” on Disney Plus.

“They are very big shoes to fill and I have truly been enjoying every moment of it,” Parris tells Variety. “It’s been such a collaborative process with the creative team figuring her out.”

In the series’ second and third episodes, audiences begin to learn that Parris’ character may not be what she appears to be. She was first introduced in the series as a woman named Geraldine, but after Wanda (Elizabeth Olsen) sends her flying through time and space, the actor’s role in the series seems more mysterious than ever.
