Recently, Elizabeth Olsen starred as the Scarlet Witch in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Sami Raimi directed this film, where Olsen played the villain of the story. The Scarlet Witch was determined to have her children back, and nothing could get in the way of this. In order to see her children, Wanda Maximoff tried to capture Xochitl Gomez’s character, America Chavez.
This was one of the few times we saw the dark side of Wanda Maximoff and learned about the awful journey she has been through. So, it makes sense that fans are eager to see a Scarlet Witch movie where we learn more about this interesting character. The Scarlet Witch has been a challenging character throughout her time in the MCU. It’s unclear whether she’s a villain or a hero, and her gray morality makes her a truly compelling character.
Given how much she has featured in the MCU since Avengers: Age of Ultron in 2015, it figures that a solo film is on the way. After all, she has her own TV series with WandaVision and was the main villain of Doctor Strange. The second Doctor Strange film put the character in a strange position. All the signs seem to be pointing to an eventual Scarlet Witch movie!
Is there a Scarlet Witch movie?

Olsen appeared on Good Morning America to help promote the Doctor Strange movie. Naturally, the interviewers got to asking about her time as Wanda Maximoff. They asked if there were any plans for a Scarlet Witch movie, as well as the rumors of her appearing in Agatha: House of Harkness. This is what she said:
“I would love to be a part of both of those. No one tells me anything, and I’m not even hiding a secret because I’m bad at that. I know nothing about my future.”
Unfortunately, it’s not the news fans were hoping for! However, Olsen may have been told to keep any Scarlet Witch movie news under wraps. After all, we already know how secretive Disney is with talking about future movies.
At the end of Doctor Strange, Maximoff finally gets what she wants – her children back. She manages to defeat Chavez, alongside Benedict’s character Wong and Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange. Sadly, her children are terrified of who their mother has become. This forces Wanda to come to her senses and realize the damage she’s caused. The movie ends with Wanda destroying herself in a flash of bright red light.
