Scarlet Witch Solo Movie Reportedly Progresses with Significant Update: “We’ve Waited Years”
Wanda’s journey in the MCU is deeply tragic. She endured immense loss during the Novi Grad Bombings and, alongside her brother Pietro, sought power to avenge their suffering, even aligning with Ultron briefly. Pietro sacrificed himself, but Wanda pressed on, finding love with Vision and confronting Thanos.
Despite her victories, she suffered further losses, including Vision, her imagined children, and her sanity. However, amidst the turmoil, she discovered her true power as the Scarlet Witch.
In the last year, there have been increasing rumors about a standalone Scarlet Witch movie. Now, a usually reliable leaker and scooper, MyTimeToShineHello, reports that the studio is actively searching for a director for the project.
This isn’t the first time rumors have circulated about a potential sequel to Wanda’s story. Several months ago, Cryptic HD Quality hinted online that Marvel Studios was considering giving Elizabeth Olsen her own movie in the near future.
The ending of “MoM” left Wanda’s fate uncertain for a reason. She’s too popular (and powerful) for the studio to let go of without giving her a chance to star in her own film. There were also hopes that she might appear in two spinoffs of “WandaVision” – “Agatha All Along,” slated for release in 2024, and the recently confirmed “Vision Quest.” However, those hopes were ultimately dashed.
