"'''We Interrupt This Program'''" is the fourth episode of the American television [[miniseries]] ''[[WandaVision]]'', based on [[Marvel Comics]] featuring the characters [[Scarlet Witch|Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch]] and [[Vision (Marvel Comics)|Vision]]. It follows an investigation of the idyllic [[sitcom]] life that Maximoff and Vision are living in the town of Westview, New Jersey. The episode is set in the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]] (MCU), sharing continuity with [[List of Marvel Cinematic Universe films|the films of the franchise]]. It was written by Bobak Esfarjani and [[Megan McDonnell]], and directed by [[Matt Shakman]].

[[Paul Bettany]] and [[Elizabeth Olsen]] reprise their respective roles as [[Vision (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Vision]] and [[Wanda Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Wanda Maximoff]] from the film series, starring alongside [[Teyonah Parris]], [[Randall Park]], [[Kat Dennings]], and [[Kathryn Hahn]]. Shakman joined the series in August 2019. The episode is the first to depict the events of the series from the 'real world' of the MCU rather than from inside Maximoff's sitcom reality. It opens with [[Monica Rambeau (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Monica Rambeau]] (Parris) returning from [[the Blip]], which is depicted in a darker way than the comedic version of the event previously seen in the MCU. Filming took place in the [[Atlanta metropolitan area]], including at [[Pinewood Atlanta Studios]], and in Los Angeles.
