Elizabeth Olsen Names the Marvel Villain Who Could Revive Scarlet Witch in MCU
Elizabeth Olsen, renowned for her role as Scarlet Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), recently shared insights on a potential return to the franchise. Despite her character’s dramatic demise in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” Olsen continues to express interest in reprising her role. She specifically mentioned that Aubrey Plaza’s character, Lady Death, could be the key to Scarlet Witch’s revival.
Potential Marvel Return with Lady Death
Since 2014, Olsen has brought Wanda Maximoff to life. However, her last significant appearance left fans uncertain about her future after the events at Mount Wundagore. In a recent conversation at Spacecon San Antonio, Olsen revealed her desire to work again with Aubrey Plaza, whom she starred alongside in the 2017 film “Ingrid Goes West.” Following this, Plaza made her MCU debut as Rio Vidal, also known as Lady Death, in the streaming series “Agatha All Along,” which is adjacent to Scarlet Witch’s storyline.

As of now, Scarlet Witch and Lady Death have not interacted in the MCU. However, Olsen’s enthusiasm for this collaboration hints at exciting possibilities for both characters. She has remarked on wanting to portray a more aged and rugged version of her character upon her return, showcasing her ongoing commitment to the role.
Speculations on Scarlet Witch’s Future
While Olsen’s Scarlet Witch briefly appeared in “Marvel Zombies,” it was in an alternate universe context. There are circulating rumors of her possible return in the upcoming “Avengers: Doomsday,” although no official announcements have been made. Should she return, it could create an interesting narrative where Scarlet Witch makes a deal with Death to return to the living.
