Elizabeth Olsen learned the wicked turn of the scarlet witch three weeks before shooting
Doctor Strange in the multiverse of madness is another MCU film which has undergone constant changes during production. Neither the director Sam Raimi nor the writer Michael Waldron had watched Wandavision When the work on the suite began, which led to a vision of the scarlet witch who disappointed many fans.
The last time we saw Wanda Maximoff by Elizabeth Olsen, she had taken a nasty turn but had made a slightly heroic sacrifice when she was crushed under Mount Wundagore. The wait is that she will come back Avengers: DoomsdayAnd rumors continue to swirl on what it will arise exactly.
In the meantime, the Doctor Strange The continuation continues to divide opinions. Although Olsen is not against the place where the story of the scarlet witch took place in 2022, she recently revealed that the character’s turn towards the dark side was a surprise for her … a few weeks before the start of filming!
“I thought I was in an overall distribution, and I thought I was one of the vouchers,” THE Avengers: end of game said in a recent appearance of the Comic Con. “And then three weeks before being sent to London, they said:” You are our main bad guy! “And I had no idea.”
“And I finished filming Wandavision, I said to myself: ‘Huh, it would have been useful to know that,” just so that I could have pulled a little “” Olsen explained. “But I think the story has been told, and I was able to somehow massage things in Doctor Strange to, hope so, tell a different story for her.”
The right hand not knowing what the left does was a major problem in the multiverse saga, with several projects that have not connected in a way that makes sense. This has changed in the past two years, largely because Marvel Studios changes its development towards quality compared to quantity.
In March, Olsen shared his reflections on the place where the story of Wanda could go afterwards and confirmed that it was an idea that she had taken directly to the president of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige.
“You know, when I think of my dream version [of Wanda]It’s like 50 years later, and I have white hair – such a large massive white wig – and a knotty face of wrinkles doing like a tracy ullman thing, “ The actor said. “And I’m like a creature they find. And that’s how I imagine Wanda’s next trip.”
“This is something that I literally launched,” Olsen added. “Because it would be so fun to do that to me.
The scarlet witch will likely come back in Avengers: Doomsdayalthough the wait is that it will have a much more important role in Avengers: secret wars. Whether it is like the bride of Doctor Doom, a variant of the X-Men universe, or even a multifiverse macguffin remains to be seen.
