Warning! Spoilers ahead for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
Elizabeth Olsen passes the lie detector test after claiming that she has never met John Krasinski despite working together in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Playing Wanda Maximoff, aka Scarlet Witch in the MCU, the actress recently appeared in the Sam Raimi-directed sequel starring Benedict Cumberbatch.

The last one delivers on one of the most-clamored castings in MCU Phase 4.
