Elizabeth Olsen wants to return as Scarlet Witch in the MCU: “There are still character through lines that have happened in the comics that I'd love to do that I think fans also want to.”
And I will stroke out in happiness if that happens
Flight_3162025-10-04 23:14
I have a dirty mind.
hyzus2025-10-04 23:18
Don't worry friend, my mind went to exactly the same place reading that
BosPaladinSix2025-10-04 23:21
I'll be stroking too, but for different reasons.
ChaoticCaptain1772025-10-05 01:45
I would stroke too
The_River_Is_Still2025-10-05 04:50
So will I, since I’ll probably be like 80 when it comes out.
Sentz120002025-10-04 23:18
It’s going to happen but I’ll say after Secret Wars. It might even be the X-Men sequel or Avengers 7.
CynicalRaps2025-10-05 02:08
We haven’t had any XMen (barely any mutants) and we want house of M that soon? Nah
rizgutgak2025-10-04 23:27
If they give Jac Schaffer House of M I think ill pass out. She's the only one behind the camera who has shown they understand Wanda
RellenD2025-10-04 23:49
Multiverse of Madness understood the character just fine.
rizgutgak2025-10-05 00:02
...
Bendythenightfury2025-10-05 00:59
Ah yes the manipulated Wanda is the most understood of the character
RellenD2025-10-05 01:10
Wanda is regularly manipulated into doing bad things and then isolating herself in guilt and being brought out of guilt to save people and then back into the cycle.
She's the Knuckles of the Marvel Universe
TobioOkuma12025-10-05 22:59
Hey nowadays she’s just doing good things to atone for her mistakes and hasn’t been manipulated in a while
Poku1152025-10-05 01:15
You can never convince mcu wanda fans that shes a villain lol, even though 90 percent of her screentime is as the villain
rizgutgak2025-10-05 01:41
True, but I want to see that progression. I needed to experience how she got from Wandavision to MoM without just being told "the Darkhold made her do it"...that is not narratively safisying with a character we have followed for almost a decade and gotten very attached to.
Poku1152025-10-05 01:45
We've always seen her progression. She's just not a hero, heroes use their trauma to fuel themselves to do the right thing, villains use theirs to enable their selfish desires, the whole stark ressentment thing, the unconscious origin of her hex, and her in MoM.
She was only playing hero to fit in the place vision and hawkeye offered to her cause she has literally nothing else.
Edit: gotta clarify before the stans get here.
This has nothing to do with her comics self, that wanda is an actual victim gone villain then hero.
Mcu wanda and the way the narrative treats her is, first and foremost, a villain.
TobioOkuma12025-10-05 23:06
No? What? Stark didn’t use his trauma in a constructive way. The unconscious origin is specifically what makes her less of a villain in wandavision.
She was content to settle down and have nothing to do with herodom until she was dragged back in and traumatized again. Woman lost her parents, then her brother, then her lover, then her family. She is a victim through and through, and you can’t really blame someone for snapping under those circumstances.
Having her fall fully victim to the dark hold was pure character assassination by writers who hadn’t thought through the story they were telling. (And hadn’t watched wandavision).
And even after all that she destroys every darkhold in every universe, ending herself and its legacy of terror.
OnlinePosterPerson2025-10-05 01:49
Wym? She was mega evil in wandavision, ended with her getting an evil book, and then she’s more evil in multiverse of madness. What specifically was the part you needed more expansion on?
rizgutgak2025-10-05 01:51
I think "mega evil" is a very shallow reading of the events of Wandavision. but tbh i don't really feel like getting in another discussion with the "Wanda is the worst person in the mcu" crowd again
OnlinePosterPerson2025-10-06 01:25
Wanda enslaved like 40 people to a comprehensive extent. It’s probably the most horrific thing we’ve witnessed in the mcu
VaishakhD2025-10-05 01:48
Wanda stans are the absolute worst since the bubonic plague
Edit: ok worst is a bit exaggerated, how about second worst after snyder stans?
OnlinePosterPerson2025-10-05 01:48
Ong. She was sooo evil in wandavision
Kittens4Brunch2025-10-05 20:16
No villain would listen to those kids sing that terrible ice cream song and pretend to like it.
Poku1152025-10-05 20:25
I mean even mother gothel can pretend to deal with rapunzel sometimes lol.
Adorable-Fact43782025-10-05 01:26
Really didn't considering the writers didn't even watch or read the script of WandaVision.
pkjoan2025-10-05 03:45
Not it didn't
WlTCH2025-10-05 01:21
but the opposite: "no, more mutants"
Uncanny--2025-10-05 01:26
I don’t think so. She wants to play a hero
kurt2002025-10-05 09:02
Nah she said in an [interview](https://youtube.com/shorts/Ib6KNWjIahg?si=G8L1gZFGAtoZ3w_5) last week that she wanted to do House of M
Uncanny--2025-10-05 15:23
i stand corrected
dacalpha2025-10-05 19:53
I wonder why. House of M isn't a story about Wanda, she's a prop that sits on a shelf until the very end where she has a mental breakdown. It's not a good story for the character, at all
ShadesOfTheDead2025-10-05 01:38
Seems like she’ll get that in the second season of Marvel Zombies.
ChaoticCaptain1772025-10-05 01:46
Yes I need her to say "no more mutants"
CynicalRaps2025-10-05 02:08
I really hope not. I’d rather they go the Krakoa route now. The House of M would’ve been done had XMen been here at least the last 10 years. They’ve had XMen for 6 years and have done virtually nothing.
BrotherBodhi2025-10-05 16:04
Yeah extremely disappointing. I definitely need more X-Men movies in my life
Grayx_28872025-10-05 02:43
It's too late for that.
dmreif2025-10-06 13:52
They already did that with *WandaVision*. House of M also isn't really a Scarlet Witch story but a Wolverine story that uses her as a plot device.
christopher13932025-10-06 15:24
I think a reverse House of M would work well. Maybe the cliffhanger at the end of Doomsday or if they create a new universe at the end of Secret Wars.
For her to say “More Mutants” or something like that.
Currycel78912025-10-04 23:08
House of M in the next saga.
But first, "Brotherhood of Evil Mutants".
n_mcrae_19822025-10-04 23:12
I do feel like Wanda’s story isn’t finished yet.
solehan5116012025-10-05 03:51
Which is why, I would love to see Wanda reappear as a full hero and remain so, and not to die again and continue the journey as an Avenger/healer.
pkjoan2025-10-04 23:19
Yes, but she wants to return as Hero Wanda. She didn't like doing villain Wanda.
TomClancy58732025-10-04 23:54
No one liked villain Wanda,
ladyfangirl92025-10-05 00:00
Right? It was such a bad writing decision.
al3438062025-10-05 00:16
At least Agatha All Along has shown that someone corrupted by the Darkhold can recover once they’ve been separated from it.
slicer4ever2025-10-05 03:59
it was such a weird decision after everything she did in wandavision.
ladyfangirl92025-10-05 07:18
Right? They walked back so much character development.
tharkus_2025-10-06 01:13
Not really. She didn’t even fully realize it was happening for most of it. If you think about it , shes basically has been screwed with by the darkhold this entire time with only a moment of her getting some relief before it really took hold of her mind first hand. She didn’t even understand the potential of her powers till Agatha manipulated her with darkhold.
Regenitor_2025-10-05 00:34
I liked villain Wanda. I just wish they telegraphed it a little more.
Poku1152025-10-05 01:16
You mean 90 percent of her screen time?
She was a hero for like 20 minutes on screen
TomClancy58732025-10-05 03:41
You mean, near the end?
Poku1152025-10-05 03:43
? Age of ultron end, civil war 4 scenes, infinity war and the one scene of endgame.
Thats how much she spent as a hero versus her whole show, most of age of ultorn and all of mom
ChaoticCaptain1772025-10-05 01:47
I mean some people did but I personally didn't. I want hero Wanda back
DSmooth4252025-10-05 03:18
I enjoyed villain Wanda. The journey to get there in MoM wasn’t an A+ script on that storyline but Olsen did a superb acting job with what she was given. You get a longer time with WandaVision but that was better. Be great to see a redemption arc from someone/ a team who was watched both tho.
tharkus_2025-10-06 01:06
I loved it. And what’s wrong with having ups downs. The nature of her power and how powerful she is plus going through everything she had to deal with. She says good bye to her family again.She acquires a magic book that not only manipulates her , but also has the power to bring Wanda to her children. Sam Rami makes a banger horror esk movie about that. “Omggg why”. Not to mention she crushed that evil Wanda. DS2 kicks ass.
FriendlyDrummers2025-10-05 10:14
WandaVision is one of my favorite shows ever.
That dr strange movie was awful. I liked America, but no offense, the young actress had some spots where the acting was very bad.
Mizerous2025-10-05 14:24
Reddit: Make her Doom's wife!!!
Sir__Will2025-10-06 02:27
Then she feels exactly as I do.
KeyLime0442025-10-06 12:51
Comics Wanda would probably be a good fit. Basically she can't control her immense power, which ends up destroying a lot of things and killing a lot of people, but she never does it intentionally like she does in MoM
DonquixoteDFlamingo2025-10-04 23:28
I feel like she needed time off and now she’s had it and is ready
New-Cardiologist-1582025-10-04 23:38
Yeah she wasn’t exactly shy about how disappointed she was with what they did with Wanda in MOM, but it seems like she’s had enough of a break that she’s not as upset about that.
thecricketnerd2025-10-04 23:49
The writing may not have been the best but she got to put in an excellent villain performance and the ending left the door open for a return
rizgutgak2025-10-05 00:06
Yeah, MoM could have been so much better if we were allowed to really see her descent as the Darkhold corrupted her.
thecricketnerd2025-10-05 00:09
True, I think only Agents of Shield watchers fully understood how much damage that book can do
No_Imagination_24902025-10-05 13:59
Yeah, she'd basically filmed Infinity War, Endgame, WandaVision and Multiverse of Madness back to back to back to back over three years so it was only natural that she wanted some time to do something else for a while. But if she did come back I suspect that she'd prefer something similar to WandaVision rather than another Avengers movie.
homiej4202025-10-04 23:28
Scarlet Witch movie?
MiaMaximoff2025-10-05 18:33
YES!
Wooden_Passage_26122025-10-04 23:39
We need Doom and Wanda together
Jet-Let46062025-10-05 00:13
Instead of Doomsday, they should be letting Shakman adapt Childrens Crusade as FF 2 guest starring the Young and New Avengers.
Wooden_Passage_26122025-10-05 00:14
Yes.
Cool_Science_6032025-10-05 01:32
Assuming the concept art is real, we might get a Children’s Crusade adaptation in Secret Wars
Mizerous2025-10-05 14:25
Literally the opposite of what Elizabeth wants
Wooden_Passage_26122025-10-05 14:28
Ok
MasterAnnatar2025-10-04 23:39
This just in: Actor wants to act
TDStarchild2025-10-04 23:47
Till she’s 90!
Soggy-University-5242025-10-04 23:48
Thank god cus she’s had me worried for a while and we need more Wanda.
RellenD2025-10-04 23:48
Yes! Let's do it!
TonyMontana5462025-10-05 00:03
I saw a video of her at the comic con and the look she had while Paul Bethany was talking about the MCU told me she’s back.
addicted_cats14122025-10-05 00:09
Good! we need more Wanda actually
InflationLeft2025-10-05 00:33
Stop the presses! Actor seeking work is open to doing actor role!
upfromashes2025-10-05 00:45
She is correct.
VaishakhD2025-10-05 00:57
Actress wants a high paying gig, water is wet
powerCreed2025-10-05 01:01
Disney Mcu suck without her and I keep losing viewer
ChaoticCaptain1772025-10-05 01:48
I would love to see Wanda in the MCU again!
Vizard152025-10-05 02:57
Yes, please.
MasterWinston2025-10-05 03:39
That’s good to hear. It feels like theirs been some drama or tension behind the scenes. She should’ve been one of the main characters of Doomsday and Secret Wars
MuNansen2025-10-05 04:10
Get her and Jac Shaffer together, STAT!!!
mialovz2025-10-05 06:56
Give me Children's Crusade, House of M and Sorceror Supreme Wanda!
FriendlyDrummers2025-10-05 10:15
I don't see how Vision and their two kids could be in the MCU alive but not Wanda. Especially since her "death" was pretty lackluster
d-o_oI2025-10-05 11:46
I don't know how people think Liz of all people doesn't care about her character when she's out there referencing her character stories straight from the comics…
Aromatic-Cupcake48022025-10-05 13:31
Elizabeth Olsen has been waiting from the moment she was cast to finally be able to interact with mutants. I hope the next saga really pays it off.
hercarmstrong2025-10-05 15:54
She wants some more money. No judgment; suckle that teat, girl. That milk is good.
EmeraldEmp2025-10-05 18:42
There's no way they don't do a version of Children's Crusade, right? Billy, Tommy, and Agatha are clearly being set up to meet Wanda again.
IntrovertedandStuff2025-10-05 19:48
This is the only character from the MCU I will watch and never tire of.
WatchingInSilence2025-10-06 06:15
HISHE did it best with Magneto appearing in Age of Ultron.
"Those are my children! AND WE'RE CALLED MUTANTS!!!"
