Elizabeth Olsen's Vision Return Might Not Be The End of The Story

Key Takeaways

  • Vision series focused on Paul Bettany’s character to build up for next Avengers title, possibly involving Ultron’s return.
  • Elizabeth Olsen to reprise role as Scarlet Witch in Vision, with potential for solo project development in MCU.
  • MCU possibly aiming for solo Scarlet Witch film in 2026 to provide character arc closure and setup for future Avengers threats.

As a die-hard Marvel fan who’s been following the MCU since its inception, I can’t help but feel a thrill of excitement upon hearing about the upcoming Vision series and potential solo Scarlet Witch project. The thought of Paul Bettany’s Vision getting his own spinoff is long overdue, and the prospect of James Spader reprising his role as Ultron has my heart racing like never before!


The highly anticipated Marvel Cinematic Universe series focused on Vision for Disney+, which has been speculated to reunite Scarlet Witch within the franchise and provide a resolution to storylines initiated in WandaVision, may not be the only time we see her. However, recent updates indicate there could be more to come.

For some time now, discussions about Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) “Vision” project have been ongoing. Initially conceived as a spin-off from the popular Disney+ series “WandaVision,” it served as a stepping stone for the MCU on streaming platforms. The show is planned to delve into the post-events life of Paul Bettany’s character, Vision, and it appears to be gearing up for another prominent role in the limelight as the MCU prepares for its next “Avengers” installment. Moreover, there’s excitement surrounding the possibility of James Spader reprising his role as a significantly altered Ultron in the upcoming series. This not only appeals to fans who adore the famous MCU villain but also presents an opportunity for the franchise to flourish through character growth and intriguing plotlines.

Enthusiasts are keen on the Vision series, but it’s the involvement of other Marvel Cinematic Universe characters that has drawn more attention than other aspects. Alongside Spader, there have been frequent mentions that Elizabeth Olsen will reappear as Wanda Maximoff in Vision. More intriguingly, a fresh report hints at additional developments for her character following her Disney+ return. According to Production Weekly’s recent update, Marvel Studios is currently planning a standalone Scarlet Witch project with Olsen returning to her signature role. However, this information is still in its infancy, so fans are advised to approach the news cautiously for now.

Delving deeper into the buzz surrounding the Wanda-focused movie, I’ve heard whispers that Jac Schaeffer and Megan McDonnell, the masterminds behind the Agatha All Along miniseries, will be on board for scripting this project. As we wrap up 2021 with Agatha All Along, this film is rumored to hit the big screen in 2026, coinciding with the release of the Vision series. This might mean that the storylines of both productions could intertwine, much like how Wandavision’s events set the stage for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. This film may also serve as a significant stepping stone in Elizabeth Olsen’s character progression, a role she’s been eagerly anticipating.

Many supporters argue that the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) should grant the Scarlet Witch a standalone film following her impressive portrayals throughout the MCU, particularly post-“Endgame.” Olsen has significantly contributed to the MCU’s success after “Endgame,” and a solo project for the Scarlet Witch could provide closure to her character arc beyond her quick self-sacrificing act of redemption at the end of “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.” If she is to continue as a character in the MCU, this project could also help establish her mindset, powers, and motivations ahead of the next major Avengers-level threat in the upcoming phase of the MCU.

Although the idea of an Elizabeth Olsen solo project is intriguing, there are whispers suggesting that her grand MCU comeback may not be as the Scarlet Witch. If these rumors prove true, it could significantly alter the trajectory of a potential standalone movie. Fans will simply have to stay tuned and observe how the events of the “Vision” series unfold.

The MCU’s Vision series is currently set for a 2026 release on Disney+.
