Remember, the last time we saw Wanda Maximoff was at the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Apparently, the character from The Scarlet Witch would have died at the end of Sam Raimi's film. It seems that the series Agatha All Along will teach us more about Wanda's fate.
What happened to the Scarlet Witch?
In Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, The Scarlet Witch decides to go to the dark side after the disappearance of her children. She travels the multiverse to find the trace of her sons, to the detriment of the balance of the temporal continuum. At the end of the story, she is stopped by Dr Strange and America Chavez. In a hint of redemption, Wanda sacrifices herself to destroy the Darkhold, this grimoire of black magic.
The spectators have therefore left Wanda for dead. Since then, the character has still not reappeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Basically, we don't yet know if Wanda is really dead or not. But it seems that the series Agatha All Along has just confirmed the information.
A first trailer, but without images
Developed by Jac Schaeffer, Agatha All Along is a spin-off series WandaVision. The show, expected on September 18 on Disney+, will focus on Agatha Harkness, the l’ antagonist of WandaVision, played by Kathryn Hahn. The story will develop after WandaVision and in particular focus on the way in which Agatha will free herself from Wanda's prison. Obviously, the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will also have an impact on Agatha All Along.
Indeed, Disney and Marvel have revealed afirst trailer to be released an audience of investors. If this teaser hasn't been released, published online, there is however a description (via IGN). These first images will apparently feature Agatha in the role of a detective. She would have in her hands a document which lists the deaths of wizards and witches. And Wanda's name would be on it. There would indeed be a mention which would mention the death of The Red Witch on October 13.
Just after, Agatha would then cross paths with another witch played by Aubrey Plaza. The latter would then ask for an order. Agatha:
“Is this really how you see yourself? That witch is gone, trapping you in a twisted spell. Make your way.”
Agatha re ;would then answer:
“- She took every bit of my power. But now, I can become the witch I was again.”
Wanda's death would therefore explain why Agatha succeeded in escape from his magical prison, and recovered his powers. The death of The Scarlet Witch will undoubtedly disintegrate the magical barriers put in place by the latter.
Already ;, in 2023, a Marvel chronological book confirmed; the death of The Scarlet Witch in Doctor Strange 2. Yet, fans still have a hard time believing it. Her death wasn't overly heroic, nor touching, and clearly lacked emotional impact. Likewise, given the character's power, audiences still wonder how she could die in a simple landslide.
However, since the MCU is currently exploring the door to the multiverse, anything is ultimately possible. With the multiverse, Wanda (or one of her variants) could easily return in a future MCU production. But officially, the character is indeed dead!
It was Agatha All Along
