Elizabeth Olsen has seemingly confirmed the future of the Scarlet Witch in the MCU with a recent statement at a South By Southwest event interview. Her comments come in light of the MCU's upcoming WandaVision spinoff, Agatha: Coven of Chaos.
Loosely based on the character from Marvel Comics and created as a spinoff of the MCU Disney Plus show WandaVision,Agatha: Coven of Chaos will follow its eponymous character after the events of the original show and her defeat at the hands of the Scarlet Witch. With WandaVision and its stars nominated for Emmys, Kathryn Hahn's Agatha Harkness was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie.

After offering a short disclaimer proclaiming that she “never knows how to answer" to such questions, she answered, “I think I’ll be back.”
While not a promise, the answer is enough to ostensibly confirm the character will return, especially when taken in conjunction with Olsen's assertion that giving her ideas for a future Scarlet Witch MCU appearance might be a spoiler. The superhero genre rarely sees any character gone for good, especially when magic is conveniently at play and a corpse is conveniently absent from the character’s final scene. This was Wanda's case at the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
There’s no shortage of interest in seeing Olsen reprise her now iconic role as the powerful sorceress.
