When and how will the Scarlet Witch return in the MCU?

Wanda Maximoff's "death" at the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness felt conclusive, yet, as we know in the MCU, a pile of rubble and a flash of red light rarely mean goodbye forever. Given her immense power and the upcoming Multiverse Saga events, her return is definitely indicative. The question is when and how will she make her grand re-entry? Thoughts or theories?

I thought it was confirmed she died.

No body, no death 👀

Currycel78912025-11-29 04:39

That's complete nonsense. The official timeline which Kevin Feige signed confirmed her death. Then Agatha All Along reiterated it.

Also, 2014 Thanos died with no body. Kang died with no body. Hela died with no body.

At some point, we have to accept it.

Now, this IS a CBM franchise so there are an infinite number of ways to bring her back *(Franklin Richards, Mephisto, Chthon, Doom's Time Platform, Loki's intervention, Lady Death, etc.*). But to insist that she still 100% HAD to survive, going into Doomsday which takes place 6 years after MoM, is delusional.

As Magneto's daughter and mutant, when the X Men finally get fully introduced into the MCU.

A different version from the "created by science and magic" Scarlet Witch of the Avengers.

Creative_Economics472025-11-28 22:37

Interesting theory. Care to elaborate?

JOBBYNUTS2025-11-28 23:09

In the MCU, (since mutants and Magneto were off limits), Wanda Maximoff was a war orphan that HYDRA "gave" powers to using experimentation and the Mind Stone.

In the comics, she is Magneto's daughter and, as a mutant, she was just born with her powers.

Some multiverse versions of Scarlett Witch can access the memories of all versions of her, and it's possible to have this new multiverse version of Scarlett Witch be able to remember and recall all the events that happened with the MCU Scarlett Witch, (who may or may not have perished). This could allow her to be her own new character while still being able to slot right back in with MCU characters, or help with unanswered questions about her from the MCU, if needed.

Could also be massively confusing too. lmao

I don't think they'll revive this Wanda, rather we'll get a new Wanda from worlds merging or a soft reboot.

Not as a full on return but I do think we may see her on Visionquest in some form, probably just flashback/memories. It'd be odd not to touch the subject on that show.

Creative_Economics472025-11-28 22:46

Ugh I don’t wanna believe this especially how they edged us in Agatha

Unpaulfessional2025-11-28 22:49

“Somehow”

Creative_Economics472025-11-28 22:56

I WAS JUST THINKING THIS!

Candid_Language88222025-11-28 22:56

i hope they do a 'house of m' story line

CaleBoi252025-11-28 23:12

The one with "No more mutants"?

Candid_Language88222025-11-28 23:20

yes as a tv show that'll be cool

krlozdac2025-11-28 22:57

I think we’ll most definitely see a variant at least in one of the upcoming Avengers movies. Leaning towards Secret Wars since I think they might look for her to solve Battleworld.

Creative_Economics472025-11-28 23:01

I was thinking that too. Like her in place of the Beyonder

Currycel78912025-11-29 04:40

The Beyonder as a character is the complete opposite of Scarlet Witch. It can't be her.

Loki makes more sense IF they're even including 1984 Secret Wars elements at all. Or they could skip that and just do 2015 Secret Wars, in which case it is all Doom.

Creative_Economics472025-11-29 05:08

I’m saying like the creating a new rebooted universe type deal

Currycel78912025-11-29 05:38

I highly doubt that. Wanda's powers just aren't tailored to large-scale universal creation, **unlike Franklin who creates universes on a whim.**

The truth is that Wanda just isn't massively important anymore. **The Darkhold prophecy remained in force as long as the Darkholds remained in existence, just like in comics.** But now, all of them are gone. That story is over, and a new one has begun.

Most likely it will be Franklin Richards with Loki's help.

Franklin has the same powers as Molecule Man; Loki has a similar personality. Those 2 together fulfill the role exactly.

I think they will use the Children's Crusade storyline through her children to bring her back.

legion_XXX2025-11-28 23:33

She isnt guys.

Creative_Economics472025-11-28 23:33

Incorrect

Currycel78912025-11-29 04:41

It's more an explosion than a red flash, and it could well be her immense power dissipating into her multiversal variants.
