Elizabeth Olsen has been portraying the iconic and powerful Wanda Maximoff for nearly 10 years, and although she has participated in multiple Marvel Cinematic Universe projects, she has never had a solo movie.
This has been widely discussed, and fans believe we might be very close to hearing the long-awaited announcement that will indicate the future of Scarlet Witch, as well as the anticipated return of the talented actress.
Jac Schaeffer, showrunner of WandaVision and Agatha All Along, spoke with Variety and expressed her deep love for the character, saying that she has high hopes that she will finally get her own standalone movie.
