Elizabeth Olsen REALLY Wants to Return to the MCU as Wanda Maximoff

by

For actors, landing a consistent role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a huge opportunity. It’s a well-paying job where they play exciting characters, and they’re expected to keep plot details secret. Plus, it leads to appearances at countless fan conventions, offering even more income through autographs and photos with enthusiastic fans. If they’re fortunate, they can even step away and return later to delight audiences. That’s why it’s no surprise Elizabeth Olsen, known for playing Wanda Maximoff (The Scarlet Witch), would be eager to reprise her role in the MCU.

Fans last saw Wanda Maximoff in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, where her fate appeared sealed beneath the ruins of a building. While it wasn’t explicitly shown, she hasn’t appeared in any subsequent Marvel Cinematic Universe projects, and other characters believe she is deceased. Elizabeth Olsen, who plays Wanda, has stated she doesn’t know if the Scarlet Witch is truly dead, but recently reflected on her time within the MCU during an interview with InStyle magazine.

Olsen described filming as playful and fun, comparing the cast to kids on a playground. She enjoyed the fantastical elements – like flying and using powers – and expressed a strong connection to the character she’s played for over a decade. While she’s happy to finish a project, she quickly misses the role and would eagerly reprise it if given the chance.

She was honest about the benefits of being a well-known actor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She explained that it provides financial stability, allowing her to choose projects she’s passionate about, and also gives her resources to support her independent film work.

Even though she works on highly acclaimed projects, Elizabeth Olsen finds playing Wanda Maximoff in the Marvel Cinematic Universe just as rewarding and challenging as any other role. She feels deeply connected to the character and prioritizes delivering a strong performance, as does everyone involved.

We’re thrilled with the positive response and are happy Wanda will return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe when the time is right. It’s definitely possible we’ll see her again soon, perhaps to reconnect with her son and even a spectral Agatha Harkness.
