    Scarlet Witch Could Be Back! Elizabeth Olsen Open to Reprise Role

    Elizabeth Olsen is one of the most beloved superheroes, which colloquially goes by the name Scarlet Witch, and her future return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe has left many fans excited and curious. The fact that she has been missing in action since her appearance in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” has made many wonder whether we shall ever see her don that iconic red suit.

    During a recent chat with FM104, Olsen dropped her take on the character’s future, and it does look like a glimmer of hope for die-hard fans of the franchise. Here, Olsen mentioned she was open to returning to the role but had no current deal with Marvel. “There’s no contract,” she said, understandably leaving a bittersweet feeling for many fans. Well, she is not quite out the door yet. Olsen had said it would take a “perfect situation” to lure her away, and such a situation could help illustrate “her investment” in the character and franchise.

    It all started in 2014 when Olsen played the Scarlet Witch in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Since then, the actress has charmed viewers in mega-hits such as Age of Ultron, Civil War, and Endgame. Her character really shined in a series on Disney+, WandaVision, where Wanda had to deal with her emotional turmoil and grief after everything that took place in Endgame. No wonder people fell in love with such an ambiguous character.

    In the interview, Olsen said that she loves playing the Scarlet Witch, but she was firm about one thing: she will return based on a good story. “If there’s a good way to use her, I’m always happy to come back,” she said. That means she would love to come back; all she would want is a good story that respects the character and their journey.

    The rumor mill does have a few possibilities for Olsen’s return, and one of the most discussed projects is the forthcoming “Vision Quest” series. Some reports suggest she might appear in the spinoff, although possibly in the form of a new character named Virginia Vision. If the series is about what happens post-“WandaVision,” then that’s a clean plate on which her character could be revisited, shown from a different perspective.

    There have also been rumors of her appearance in the animated series “What If.?”, which allows her character to return for an alternate storyline. This has been a trend with Marvel ever since it tried to explore multiverse stories, giving different ends and interpretations of her character.

    Olsen reflected on her path and how it often felt that while she was well-utilized at certain moments, Marvel was slightly unsure how her character should fit. More so, after “WandaVision,” the potential that could have been brought with the character wasn’t.

    The Scarlet Witch polarizes opinions among fans: some people are very disappointed with her character arc, while others believe that her character has been lagged behind in comparison to other heroes. On the occasion, one Reddit user highlighted the fact that she is supposedly one of the most powerful Avengers and hasn’t received anywhere near the character development/study, as well as standalone projects, that many would like.

    However, many fans love the depth “WandaVision” brought out in her character. It really allowed for an in-depth excavation of her grief regarding her powers and presented an appropriate and complex understanding of her plights. Be that as it may, since “WandaVision” and “Doctor Strange in Multiverse of Madness”, opinions have divided, with some feeling she has taken a morally wrong direction and others sympathetic to her tragic backstory.

    While fans sit tight, waiting to hear about the next time Elizabeth Olsen will appear as Scarlet Witch, one thing is sure: her character has indelibly left a mark on the MCU. With discussions of what’s to come and storylines in the works for her very much alive, we are holding our breath to see her again, be it with a new series, an animated project, or even a solo film. Whatever Wanda Maximoff’s future is, it is ready for consumption.

    Many fans appreciate the depth that “WandaVision” brought to her character. The series allowed for a deeper exploration of her grief and powers, leading to a more nuanced understanding of her struggles. However, her actions in “WandaVision” and “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” have led to polarized opinions. Some criticize her for the moral implications of her actions, while others sympathize with her tragic backstory.
