Scarlett Witch: Marvel is reportedly preparing a film about Wanda Maximoff with this iconic villain

Are we close to a return of The Scarlet Witch in the MCU? It is indeed rumored that Wanda Maximoff could make her return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in her own film. A Scarlet Witch film that could also bring back this iconic villain.

Where is the Scarlet Witch?

We haven't seen The Scarlet Witch since Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022). The character played by Elizabeth Olsen since the post-credits scene of Captain America: The Winter Soldier has had a somewhat unusual trajectory. She starts out in the MCU as an ally of Ultron,before changing her mind and supporting the Avengers. Then, the events of Captain America: Civil War make her doubt herself. She is perceived as a threat by some of her teammates. Then, the death of Vision in Infinity War makes her fall into a deep depression and madness. In WandaVision, she decides to change reality to live an idyllic life with Vision and his two children: Bill and Tommy.

Finally, in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnessshe becomes a threat to the time continuum and the multiverse itself. It is Dr. Strange who is forced to stop the Scarlet Witch's actions. The latter makes amends at the very end of the film when she decides to sacrifice herself to destroy the Darkhold. Since then, The Scarlet Witch is officially dead in the MCU. But many fans have a hard time accepting such a reality, and many believe that she is still alive, hidden somewhere, far from all the hustle and bustle of the supers.

A Scarlet Witch movie?

Many rumors about a Scarlet Witch movie regularly come out on the net. Many fans would like the Scarlet Witch to return in her own movie. And, it is rumored that such a project would be in the works at Marvel Studios. According to the scooper MTTSH, the project would already be in talks, and could be released in 2026. The screenplay would have been entrusted to Jac Schaeffer and Megan McDonnell, the screenwriters of WandaVision and Agatha All Along.

Still according to MTTSH, this film Scarlet Witchwould also allow for a return of Agatha Harkness. The character played by Kathryn Hahn is currently at the center of the series Agatha All Along. A show that makes many references to Wanda without including her in the plot. The film Scarlet Witch would therefore allow for the return match between the two witches to be staged. If the film Scarlet Witch were to actually be produced, the plot would surely integrate Billy and Tommy, Wanda's two children. Especially since Billy, aka Wiccan, plays a central role in Agatha All Along. All this is still rumor. But if the project were to be made official, do you think a Scarlet Witch movie is a good idea?
