Wayne’s 4 x 2: WandaVision, Allen v Farrow, and more!
Legends speak of a wanderer. One who treks across the vast plains of the world of entertainment gathering the finest fruits from the brambled bushes of film, TV and music. They say this wandered emerges from the wilds to share four of these fruits – no more, no less – with all who would listen and ask for nothing in return. In lore, this wanderer goes by many names.
We know him as Wayne.
