Mad Men” and “If Beale Street Could Talk” actress Teyonah Parris has been cast in Disney Plus’s “Wanda Vision” series. She will play an adult version of Monica Rambeau, a child character introduced in “Captain Marvel.” The announcement was made at Marvel’s Comic-Con presentation. The forthcoming Disney+ series about Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and Vision (Paul Bettany) will be set in the 1950s. Parris is also known for her roles in films like Spike Lee’s “Chiraq” and Justin Simien’s “Dear White People.

The series joins other Marvel Studios content set for Disney’s new subscription streaming service, such as a show centering on Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye, “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier” with Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan, and Loki” starring Tom Hiddleston.
There are quite a few other comic books that we’re pulling from, and it’s going to be Wanda and the Vision, and I think at the Disney Plus launch chat, they showed a photo of us in the ’50s,” Olsen told Variety. “Paul [Bettany] and I are excited. They have a great group of writers. I think it’s going to be a total of six hours.” Chief Executive Hyunjun Park and Chief Technology Innovation Officer Nathaniel Roquet founded Catalog in 2016.

The Catalog uses an addressing system,whic means customers can use large data sets. And even though DNA stores data in long sequences, Catalog can read information stored anywhere using molecular probes. In other words, it’s a form of random-access memory like a hard drive, not sequential access like the spools of magnetic tape you might remember from the heyday of mainframe computers a half-century ago. Although cosmic rays can disrupt DNA data, Catalog argues it’s a more stable medium than the alternatives. After all, we’ve got DNA from animals that went extinct thousands of years ago. How much do you want to bet that the USB thumb drive in your desk drawer will still be useful even 25 years from now?
