Elizabeth Olsen Hints at Scarlet Witch Return with Lady Death Team-Up

San Antonio, Texas — Elizabeth Olsen, known for her role as Scarlet Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), may be on the verge of a surprising comeback after three years. Fans are eager for her return following her character’s dramatic arc in the Disney+ series WandaVision and her subsequent demise in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

During a recent appearance at Spacecon San Antonio, Olsen expressed her willingness to reprise her iconic role, sparking hopes among fans. Though she did not confirm her involvement in future projects, she mentioned a desire to collaborate with Aubrey Plaza, who portrays Lady Death in the MCU.

“I would love to return to Marvel and work with Aubrey,” Olsen said, referencing their previous collaboration in the 2017 film Ingrid Goes West. Their established friendship adds an appealing dimension to the potential of a team-up.

Plaza’s character, Lady Death, has unique powers linked to life and death, making her a formidable counterpart for Scarlet Witch. Their dynamic could either lead to a thrilling rivalry or a powerful alliance, raising the stakes for forthcoming MCU stories.

Upcoming projects such as Vision Quest, set to release in 2026, could provide the perfect stage for Scarlet Witch’s redemption after her villainous turn. In Vision Quest, she may reconnect with the Vision, creating opportunities to redefine her character following her perceived fall from grace.

Meanwhile, Avengers: Doomsday, scheduled for a December 2026 release, is expected to bring back several iconic characters. Fans are particularly excited about the possibility of interactions between Scarlet Witch and Magneto, her father in the comics. Such a storyline could offer deeper insights into Wanda’s character and her family ties.

As the Multiverse Saga approaches its conclusion, the return of Olsen’s Scarlet Witch remains uncertain. Although the prospects are thrilling, time is of the essence for Marvel Studios to make these potential collaborations happen.
