The Scarlet Witch’s future in the Marvel Cinematic Universe remains a mystery, leaving fans eager for answers. Elizabeth Olsen, the actress behind Wanda Maximoff, has expressed her enthusiasm to reprise her role, but she’s also keeping expectations in check regarding Avengers: Doomsday. This news comes directly from an interview with The Playlist, where Olsen discussed her uncertainty about when she’ll return as the Scarlet Witch, despite her fondness for the character’s journey. She is proud of her time as Maximoff. But, when will we see her again? That’s the million-dollar question!**
Olsen’s comments echo a sentiment of not knowing when or how Wanda will reappear. Considering the character’s fate in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where she seemingly sacrificed herself, the ambiguity surrounding her future is understandable. Although, her corpse appeared in the first episode of WandaVision spin-off series Agatha All Along.
But here’s where it gets controversial… Fans have been speculating about Wanda’s return for years, fueled by the many unresolved plot threads related to her character. Many are hoping to see Wanda use her powers for good, especially after the events of WandaVision and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
And this is the part most people miss… The fate of Wanda and Vision’s children, Billy and Tommy, remains uncertain, with Billy playing a key role in Agatha All Along. With VisionQuest expected to delve deeper into this plotline, could this pave the way for Wanda’s reunion with her children?
Furthermore, what about Magneto? With Ian McKellen set to reprise his X-Men role in Avengers: Doomsday, could Marvel bring Magneto and his daughter together?
It’s also worth noting that Olsen might be playing it coy. She could be following the trend of other actors, like Andrew Garfield, who have remained tight-lipped about their involvement in upcoming projects. Other actors, such as Famke Janssen and Charlie Cox, have also denied their involvement in Avengers: Doomsday.
