It seems as though the Scarlet Witch may be returning to the big screen! A new rumor suggests Marvel Studios is planning to give Elizabeth Olsen her own film.
Many fans were disappointed with the direction Marvel Studios has taken the Scarlet Witch in recent years. Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff was one of the most beloved heroes in the MCU, and it broke many fans’ hearts to see their favorite Avenger make a heel turn. However, it seems she may be getting redemption sooner than expected, with scooper MyTimeToShineHello revealing that Marvel wants to release a new film starring the character between or after the next Avengers films.
There have been a lot of rumors about how Marvel Studios could continue Wanda Maximoff’s journey in the MCU, from the seemingly doomed Vision Quest series to a Young Avengers Children’s Crusade project. Regardless of what form the project takes, Marvel fans are likely going to be happy just to see Elizabeth Olsen back as the Scarlet Witch given how things left off last time!
Marvel’s Vision Quest
The folks at GiantFreakingRobot were the first to say that Vision is getting a television series back in 2021, following the final episode of the Disney Plus series WandaVision. Developed by Matt Shakman, WandaVision followed Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff and Paul Bettany’s Vision living in an imaginary town known as Westview. It ended with the creation of White Vision, with his fate being one of the show’s unresolved plot threads.
While Paul Bettany’s Vision has been missing for more than a year now, Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff was featured in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which was released this past May. The movie earned $955.7 million at the worldwide box office, making it one of the highest-grossing features of the year.
