Elizabeth Olsen Addresses Wanda’s MCU Future & Enjoying Her Break
starred in both the 2021 Disney+ series WandaVision and the 2022 movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, yet Wanda’s MCU future is up in air. While Olsen is happy to return whenever Marvel asks, Olsen recently said she doesn’t miss the Marvel Cinematic Universe just yet.
Speaking to Variety, Olsen was asked about Wanda’s MCU future, specifically whether or not she would be in the upcoming Agatha: Coven of Chaos. Olsen amended a previous answer about “returning” and said she has no plans to return, but that’s only because Marvel hasn’t asked.
“I think I answered a question wrong. Someone asked me if I would be ‘returning,’ and they said, for instance, ‘are we going to see you in ‘this thing.” And I said, ‘Well, I hope I’m returning.’ I’m not ‘returning’ to anything right now,” said Olsen of Wanda’s MCU future. “I’m not doing anything for Marvel. Nothing, and it’s not that I’m trying to be cheeky. They’ll let me know when they’ll let me know.”
Olsen was also asked if she misses the world of Marvel, to which she said no, but only because she had just recently done “two years straight” of work as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch and was interested in doing other things at the moment.
“And do I miss it? I don’t miss it,” Olsen said. “I just did two years straight of it. I think the break’s been good for me. I need to build other characters. It’s important for me. I’m grateful for this show [Love & Death] because it came at a great time — after playing Wanda for two years straight, and then I had to talk about it for another year. So it’s nice having something else to focus on and highlight.”
