Elizabeth Olsen is ‘happy’ to return to Marvel, but only ‘if there’s a good way to use’ Scarlet Witch

Elizabeth Olsen is still open to putting on her super suit and returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Assessment actress has portrayed Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch, in the Marvel universe since 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, including in her own TV series, WandaVision, in 2021. Her most recent appearance as the superhero was in 2022’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

“It’s a character that I love going back to when there’s a way to use her well, and I think I have been lucky that when I started I was used well within Age of Ultron,” Olsen said of the role during a recent interview with a Dublin radio outlet. “And then, I think people didn’t know what to do with me for a second there.” However, she said they eventually “were able to utilise the character well in interesting ways of telling stories in ways they hadn’t yet,” specifically with WandaVision, which scored her an Emmy nomination for best lead actress in a limited or anthology series or movie. “So if there’s a good way to use her I’m always happy to come back, however they can make that make sense,” Olsen admitted.
