Marvel Studios may be continuing to follow the lead of the comics, albeit with its own twists along the way, just as WandaVision. However, Joe Locke's Teen certainly looks the part of Billy Maximoff/Kaplan reincarnated and Agatha Along feels like the perfect project to confirm his return.
It seems likely that some form of reincarnation would be The Scarlet Witch's son bringing back the MCU.
It should also be noted that Mephisto himself has finally been confirmed to exist in the MCU. Agatha Along. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that the MCU's Billy and Tommy will emerge as dismembered pieces of Mephisto's soul like they did in the comics. Additionally, the comics themselves have since retconned this part of his origin, with Mephisto simply seeing his lost souls as his own, rather than claiming them as his own. In any case, it's likely that some form of reincarnation will have the son of the Red Witch bring back the MCU.
