Elizabeth Olsen teases Scarlet Witch’s MCU future following the events of Doctor Strange 2 and wants to know where fans want Wanda’s story to go next.
Elizabeth Olsen teases Scarlet Witch’s future in the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Since joining the MCU during Phase 2, Wanda Maximoff has seen her role continue to increase. She played a prominent role in the conclusion of the Infinity Saga, returned to star in WandaVision on Disney+, and now stars opposite Benedict Cumberbatch’s Stephen Strange in Doctor Strange 2. The latter marks her seventh MCU appearance (including post-credits scenes) and gives Scarlet Witch a truly villainous turn.
The plot of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness follows Doctor Strange as he attempts to protect America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) – a teenager with multiverse-traveling powers – from Scarlet Witch. Following the events of WandaVision, where Scarlet Witch loses her kids and acquires the Darkhold, she wants to take Chavez’s powers for herself, so she can travel the multiverse and be reunited with Billy and Tommy. This story puts Wanda Maximoff front and center for much of the multiverse sequel, but her MCU future is much more unclear.
