Our thoughts on Elizabeth Olsen’s 2025 MCU return
This bodes well for Marvel’s future plans
Appear in Marvel Zombies It might not be the Marvel Cinematic Universe return that I or other Scarlet Witch fans had been hoping for, but it does show that Marvel considers her character important to the larger franchise. In light of Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige’s recent comments about Scarlet Witch, he said: “We’re excited to find out when and how Scarlet Witch will return,” Olsen is even more hopeful that he will one day return to the Marvel Universe in live-action form. How that happens remains to be seen, but until then, I’m excited to have Elizabeth Olsen on board Marvel Zombies next year.
