AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Rumor Claims To Reveal More About Plans For Doctor Doom And The Scarlet Witch - SPOILERS

The latest Avengers: Doomsday rumour claims to reveal more about plans for Doctor Doom and the Scarlet Witch, including which version of Wanda Maximoff we'll see Elizabeth Olsen play. Check it out...

Last month, there were rumblings online about Avengers: Doomsday exploring a potential romance between Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom and Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch. 

Now, Beyond The Trailer is also claiming that we'll see these two team up in the movie; the biggest new detail, though, is the fact Olsen is returning to play Earth-616's Wanda Maximoff, not a Variant. 

This means she survived the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and it's easy enough to see how her rampage through the Multiverse - which ended with the destruction of every copy of the Darkhold - might put her on Doom's radar.

Fans rejected the notion of Wanda being a villain, so Doom is surely either manipulating the Scarlet Witch or taking advantage of her confused state. Whatever the case may be, these Avengers movies may end up setting the stage for her long-rumoured solo outing. 

The channel also claims Scarlet Witch and Wiccan movies are both under consideration at Marvel Studios, while Young Avengers is looking increasingly likely. As for Aubrey Plaza, she's now expected to play Death across multiple film and television projects.

With Billy Maximoff and Agatha Harkness on the hunt for Tommy after Agatha All Along, we'd bet on them being absent from Doomsday

In the comics, Avengers: The Children's Crusade saw Wiccan and Speed attempt to find their mother, the Scarlet Witch. In the wake of House of M, she'd lost her memory and was finally found living alongside Victor in Latveria's Castle Doom. 

They were very much in love and legitimately happy (the former Avenger had come to him for help; he never forced her to love him), but when Wanda regained her memories, it quickly became clear their relationship was - no pun intended - doomed. 

From there, it was revealed that Wanda is a Nexus Being, "a living focal point for Earth's mystical energies," and Doom's attempt to help her get the power she needed to resurrect her children is what really led to her going mad years earlier. 

In the present, Doom took the Scarlet Witch's reality-altering powers and refused to give them up even for her. Despite his promise to reshape the world, it didn't pan out for the villain, and we're sure you can see how this could be combined with what we saw in Jonathan Hickman's Secret Wars series (where, using the powers of The Beyonders, he created a new Battleworld when the Multiverse was destroyed). 

Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released in May 2026, with Avengers: Secret Wars scheduled to arrive in May 2027.

Doomsday will be a loose adaptation of Children's Crusade and the sight of Wiccan and Sped will set her on the righteous path...

Why do people have a problem with her being a bad guy? She started out as a villain in the comics AND the Mcu, it was clear from the start that she was unstable

@Gambito - I think she makes a great villain.

@Gambito - I have not watched the Agatha show yet so idk what happens on that story, but iirc in Wandavision she used her powers to create her two kids with fake Vision, so why couldn't she just do the same thing again to bring them back instead of becoming a multiversal murdering machine that had to steal their kids from other Wanda variants?

I mean with Doom becoming the Sorcerer Supreme in the comics it could be possible this version of Doom will have that title as well. It would make sense for Wanda to seek some mentorship from a familiar face, since I doubt RDJ will be masked the entire time. The inevitable betrayal from Doom ala the comics could make for an interesting battle if Doctor Strange decides to come to Wanda's aid.

"Fans rejected the notion of Wanda being a villain"

Huh? When did that happen? She's one of my favorite MCU villains. Having a sympathetic backstory and understandable motivation for her horrific behavior makes her a better villain...and at this point, I don't think she is redeemable.

@Izaizaiza - I personally hated the way they handle that in MoM.

It was like... "Remember all what the character grow in Wandavision? Hope you do because the writers don't"

@BabyLasagna - Well the series literally ended with her reading the Darkhold so we had to assume she was about to be evil even if she didn't intend it.
Izaizaiza
Izaizaiza - 11/7/2024, 1:49 PM
@TheCredibleHulk @BabyLasagna - I understand your point, but agree with TheCredibleHulk. Wanda was a complex character in Wandavision, and very sympathetic (her conversation with Vision on the bed talking about grief was beautiful and devastating), but she DID imprison an entire town and she DID end the series reading the book of ultimate evil!

@Izaizaiza - yeah, I don't buy the "all her character development is nullified because of a 30 second post credit scene "

Think it'd be pretty interesting if Doom saved Wanda, only to betray her and use her as a puppet in his plans to become God Emperor. Could see him use her like the Molecule Man-bomb in the comics.

“Fans rejected the notion of Wanda being a villain”

That’s nice. But the fact of the matter is that she is a villain, a pretty big one. Murdered lots of people and heroes. No way to redeem that.

This sounds awful and if true it means Feige doesn't get it. There's a reason Olsen spoke out against where her character ended up. Wandavision concluded with her learning her lesson and exiling herself all for Waldron to complete botch and fumble that arc. This would be a repeat of MoM with her as a villain and most likely finding some faux form of redemption in the end probably from her children. Olsen and Wanda deserve better. So does Doctor Strange the real Sorcerer Supreme not the baby sitter turned reality destroyer, so does not so courageous Hulk, so does fat drunk comedian Thor, so do most of the powerful characters within this cinematic universe. And don't get me started on Winter Soldier. Feige needs to do better.

I could see Wanda in a hibernation state within the Nexus of all Realities, This is where Nexus beings gets resurrected and regenerate. But since she is in a slumber she has no idea she has been reborn and recharging. In here is where Man-Thing finds her in her slumber and awakens her. Wanda has no memories or recollection of what happens and Man-Thing guides her to a doorway out of the Nexus of all Realities leading her to an alternate earth where Dr. Doom is the savior. Doom explains to her what an Incursion is and what's destined to happen and with her help the two can forge Battleworld.
