WANDAVISION Star Elizabeth Olsen Teases MCU Return: "I Think I Would Maybe Be Spoiling Something..."

Avengers: Endgame star Elizabeth Olsen was recently asked about which Scarlet Witch storylines she'd like to adapt in the MCU and grabbed the attention of fans by saying her answer could be a spoiler...

After Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, we still don't know what's next for the Scarlet Witch in the MCU. The character may have died beneath Mount Wundagore, but her story surely isn't over and there are plenty of places Wanda Maximoff can still go following that rampage through the Multiverse. 

If online scoopers are to be believed, a Scarlet Witch movie is on the horizon. Agatha All Along, meanwhile, established that Wanda is "gone" and deliberately avoided using the word "dead." 

During a recent convention Q&A, Elizabeth Olsen was asked if there are any particular storylines she'd like to adapt in the MCU. However, her answer has grabbed the attention of fans on social media. 

"Well, honestly, if I were to tell you exactly what I would want I think I would maybe be spoiling something," the actor teased. "Kevin Feige genuinely asks us what we want to do with the character and then he does it [Laughs] so I don't know if I can share...I just want to come back."

This is arguably Olsen's biggest hint yet at a return and we'd imagine she'll show up in the next Avengers movies before taking centre stage in a project likely featuring appearances from Vision, Agatha Harkness, Wiccan, and Speed. 

Wanda's knowledge of the Multiverse could be crucial to how Doomsday and Secret Wars play out and there are already rumblings online about her falling into Doctor Doom's clutches. 

"It's a character I love going back to when there's a way to use her well and I think I've been lucky when I started I was used well," Olsen said earlier this year of a possible MCU return, "and they kind of didn't know what to do with me for a second there! If there's a good way to use her, I'm always happy to come back."

"I think so. I assume as much," she added when asked if the Avenger is still alive. "Yeah, and there was a red light of explosive energy. I think I'm dead. I would beg to leave a window open. I had so much fun doing these movies. I would like to figure out how to cleverly be undead."

"We need to find the smartest writers to figure out how to make this all make sense. I'm open to ideas," Olsen noted.

Marvel Studios must be cognizant of how unhappy fans were with how the Scarlet Witch's story played out in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, so the sooner she returns and redeems herself, the better. 

You can hear Olsen's comments in the video below.

Slow new days? She said this in February….. 2023. This is passed the point of being classified as news.

@MikeyL - Good catch.

@MikeyL - @natebest can something be done about moving this to a different section since it’s not news?

@MikeyL - I wouldn't consider having someone report on a theory that she'll return, as was done in the link you shared, and a video from a convention that was shared *yesterday* with Olsen responding to a fan question the same thing.

@NateBest - the convention wasn’t from yesterday, as shown here https://x.com/agentsfandom/status/1629130343771955201?s=46

@NateBest - further to that, the exact same quote that Josh is saying is new is used in the older article that I’ve linked. They very much are the same thing

@MikeyL - Good catch! I actually didn't see the quote when I skimmed through it.

I think I'll just go and push the date back to when this actually happened.

@NateBest - no worries, man. Absolutely fair compromise. Out of sheer curiosity, have you put any further thought into trialling a QA system for submitted articles so things like this don’t happen?
NateBest
NateBest - 11/4/2024, 10:44 AM
@MikeyL - I have, but currently there aren't extra resources available to institute something like that, and I think it would really slow down the process for news content (which is usually a bad thing). Even with something in place, things like this (old/covered news with newly uploaded videos/social media, etc.) would probably have a good chance of slipping through.

If it becomes a frequent thing, I'll probably dig into it deeper. As of now it seems to be a pretty rare occurrence, especially if the sheer volume of content that's posted is taken into account...

I'm looking forward to seeing here again as Wanda (and I believe 100% that this will happen).

I don’t have a problem with this. She is an extremely powerful force in the MCU and it would make sense she would be important.

Somehow I knew she would be sayin this in between chuckles. She’s a very chucklish person

The festering remains of the MCU are [frick]ing exhausting.

Nobody gives a tug about the Young Avengers or the Gay Witch Squadron or the Formerly Dead Avengers.

None of the shit they are 'developing' is going to sell tickets or turn a profit.

Her character arc has been great so far. Highly doubt Feige is gonna leave that on the table.

I decided to stay away from this site mainly due to its lack of any basic journalistic standards and it's hilarious how 3 years paternal nothing changed.

This recent q a happened in February 2023.... You cant even do basic research before you put up an article
