Goodbye Wanda: Elizabeth Olsen’s Marvel Journey Ends

Elizabeth Olsen will not return as Scarlet Witch, marking the end of her journey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Her last appearance was in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022).

Elizabeth first appeared as Wanda Maximoff in 2014’s Avengers: Age of Ultron and quickly became one of the most loved Marvel characters. Over the years, she amazed fans with her powerful acting and emotional story, especially in WandaVision.

Many fans are sad to say goodbye to her character, but her time as the Scarlet Witch will always be remembered as one of the best performances in Marvel history.

Earlier, MCU star Elizabeth Olsen finally broke her silence regarding VisionQuest and the end of the WandaVision trilogy. Since 2015, Olsen has brought to life the Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff in Marvel Studios’ super-powered world.

While she has played a part in many MCU projects over the years, she most notably kicked off Marvel’s streaming era with the release of WandaVision in 2021.

While her character is still technically dead in the MCU, that has not stopped her fingerprints from being felt all over the on-screen canon. The story set up by Olsen’s WandaVision will come to a close with the release of 2026’s VisionQuest.

Although the new Paul Bettany-led streaming series has been in development for years, Olsen has yet to comment on the project publicly. That recently changed, as she was asked about VisionQuest during a new interview with Inverse.

Olsen posited that she “I didn’t know anything about it,” but had recently spent time with Bettany and is now very excited. She said that the Vision actor is “so proud of it,” and that it will form a solid “trifecta” with WandaVision and Agatha All Along:

“I didn’t know anything about it until he and I spent time with each other just the other week, and it he so proud of it. It really sounds like a trifecta between ‘Agatha All Along,’ his show, ‘VisionQuest,’ and what we made with ‘WandVision.’ So, I’m excited to see that.”

The new Vision-centric series will focus on Bettany’s synthezoid, picking up the pieces of his life following the events of WandaVision. After being revived as the blank slate known as White Vision, Bettany’s MCU character will have to uncover who he is while dealing with a new threat in the form of several evil A.I.s.

Bettany leads VisionQuest with James Spader, Todd Stashwick, Ruaridh Mollica, and T’Nia Miller rounding out the Disney+ ensemble. VisionQuest is scheduled for release on Disney+ sometime in 2026.
