Elizabeth Olsen Hesitant To Discuss Potential Scarlet Witch Return For Fear Of "Spoiling Something"

Elizabeth Olsen will almost certainly return as Wanda Maximoff, aka Scarlet Witch, at some point, but the actress is hesitant to discuss the possibility for fear of "spoiling something."

After a brush with villainy (depending on your perspective) in the season finale of WandaVision, the Scarlet Witch became the full-blown antagonist of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Wanda committed some pretty heinous acts under the influence of the Darkhold, including the massacre of the entire Illuminati in an alternate reality. In the end, she took responsibility for her actions, destroying every copy of the Darkhold and burying herself under the crumbling Mount Wundagore.

Though she appeared to perish, it'd take more than some rubble to finish off one of the most powerful characters in the MCU, and we will almost certainly see the Scarlet Witch again at some point.

During a recent appearance at Kuwait’s Comfest Con, Elizabeth Olsen was asked what storylines she'd like to be a part of if and when Wanda returns.

“Well, honestly, if I were to tell you exactly what I would want, I think I would be spoiling something. Because Kevin Feige genuinely asks us what we want to do with the character and then he does it. So… I don’t know if I can share, but I just want to come back!”

It sounds like she's definitely had some discussions about her big comeback, but that's probably all we'll have to go on for a while.

Olsen has previously indicated that she'd like to be involved with the infamous "No More Mutants" arc, but it's hard to imagine that story is already being discussed when mutants haven't even officially debuted yet.

Wanda is expected to have a role in the upcoming Vision Quest Disney+ series, and may also show up in Agatha: Coven of Chaos. The character is also sure to factor into Avengers: Secret Wars.
