Welcome back, everyone
It's Charlie.
This will be my new Scarlet Witch video.
Elizabeth Olsen talking about the return of the character to the MCU.
We all believe that she was still alive.
So explain what's going on.
Is a bunch of Easter eggs here, and they do have
a bunch of plans for her in future MCU movies and Disney Plus series.
If you're brand new to the channel, be sure to subscribe to get all the videos
is a bunch of really big stuff coming up in a couple really big wandavision spin
offs of all the Disney Plus shows so far is the only one that has two
spinoffs already.
You may have seen the clip of Elizabeth Olsen
talking about coming back as Scarlet Witch.
This is her at a convention explaining what's going on,
What we see a storyline for one done.
Do you want.
Well, honestly, if I were to tell you exactly what I would want,
I think I would maybe be spoiling something because
just heaven.
Kevin Feige genuinely asks us
what we want to do with the character, and then he does it.
So I think what
I don't know if I can share, but I just want to come back.
Oh, the funny thing about that clip is you try not to give away spoilers
in the way that she says it. If I were to say anything, they would be.
Spoilers is just the fact that Kevin Feige listens to the actors
and will do pretty much whatever they want to do within certain limits.
Elizabeth Olsen In the past has talked about how she wants redemption
for Scarlet Witch.
That's what she'll be focused on when she comes back
with a bunch of other stuff happening too at the same time.
They always had the plan for her to turn evil
during Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness,
but they changed the way that they did that a couple of different times
in some versions of the movie.
She waited till later in the film before she was revealed as a villain.
So that felt like something was missing between Wandavision in Doctor Strange
Multiverse of Madness that explained why she'd gone so evil.
That's mostly a result of all the reshoots during Doctor Strange Multiverse
of Madness, these kind of yada yada yada over a lot of stuff during that movie.
But at the end of that film she destroys the Darkhold Temple,
which is meant to be the only one in the entire multiverse.
Like there were many copies of the Darkhold that had spread
across the multiverse in different universes, but only one Darkhold temple.
All the books had been copied from the writings inside that one temple.
The way they explain it in the movie is that when she destroyed
the temple, it automatically destroyed all the other copies of the book.
When she brings down the top of one door and you see this flash of hex energy
in that set, essentially what happened during
that is her own powers protected her the same way that she used her powers
to create the hex in Wandavision without really understanding how she did it.
Like her grief manifested physically.
And it was so powerful that the hex is what came out.
So the already established the idea that her body
can automatically use her powers without it.
Her brain really thinking about it actively.
The other funny example here too,
is that if you're big Avatar, the Last Airbender fan,
if you remember the boy in the Ice Age got stuck in the ice for over 100 years.
That's because when he fell into the water,
a hundred plus years ago, his body automatically went into the Avatar state
and protected him in that bubble for a hundred plus years,
like he was in the Avatar state for over 100 years.
So you have to imagine Scarlet Witch stuck in the Avatar state in this protective
bubble for a couple years until they bring her back.
She won't be stuck in there for over 100 years like ING was.
Right now, Marvel
does plan to bring the character back during Avengers Kang Dynasty,
but also she's supposed to have a cameo during the Agatha Coven of Chaos series.
I don't know if that's going to be a flashback, though.
She will be back in present day
like regular Scarlet Witch Back by Avengers Kang Dynasty.
There's only a couple of years away.
Now there are the other Wandavision spinoffs.
Like I just mentioned, Agatha Coven of Chaos.
The Vision Quest TV series
is also meant to be a Wandavision spinoff with a White Vision character.
She might have some kind of cameo during that,
but it could also be a flashback or just a hallucination of someone.
It could just be white vision Remembering her.
One of the reasons why she's so important to Agatha
Coven of Chaos, though, is because her power, her spell literally
trapped Agatha in the spell inside Westview.
The minute the Scarlet Witch went unconscious during this moment here,
like she's not absolutely conscious while this is happening,
that's when her spell in West went down and Agatha was freed.
A lot of the characters from Wandavision
are coming back during Agatha Coven of Chaos.
Are introducing a couple more ones too.
But during the series, Scarlet Witch
is a big character on the tip of everyone's tongues.
Everybody's talking about what happened to her,
what happened with her during Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness.
They're also supposed to bring back an adult version, a resurrected
version of her son, Billy Kaplan, who's played by Joe Long.
Now, that's a bit of a rumor.
It could be another character, but it does seem like he's
playing the older version of Billy.
During the series, Agatha is trying to protect him and his power
from this other coven of witches played by Aubrey Plaza.
Right now, the report is that she's playing a version of Morgan Lafe,
who's just one of the more evil magic users inside the MCU,
because we know they're doing a version of Young Avengers.
They started to tease that
during Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania with Cassie Lang's character,
and there were some deleted scenes that I talked about
where they more literally try to set up Young Avengers.
Of course, they plan on using adult versions of Billy
and Tommy during that, like they did during the comics.
But we don't know where adult Tommy is going to appear during the MCU next.
He might have a cameo during Agatha Coven of Chaos.
He might cameo during the Vision Quest series.
They haven't said absolutely when the young Avengers
team will come together formally for the first time.
There's still a couple of characters they haven't introduced yet,
but most of the young Avengers characters you've seen in Marvel Phase four series,
The Vision Quest series, is supposed to be tied more directly to young Avengers.
But the really cool thing a lot of people have been asking about
because one of the big things about Scarlet Witch is history is her connection
to the mutants in X-Men characters, the X-Men comics.
Elizabeth Olsen has talked about this.
The Marvel people have talked about this.
They would love long term to have her crossover
with the new version of the X-Men, be in those new solo movies
in whatever the Disney Plus series they have based on X-Men characters.
After Secret Wars.
Right now, it just seems like Marvel is waiting to release
that X-Men solo movie until After Secret Wars,
and that'll be the beginning of a huge X-Men focus saga.
Like we have the multiverse saga right now.
You're seeing a few X-Men characters, like Hugh Jackman's
characters coming back in Deadpool three.
We've seen Professor X cameos with Patrick Stewart.
They'll be some more of that during Secret wars, maybe even before that.
There's supposed to be a bunch of Fox Marvel
characters cameo ing in Deadpool three
because they're kind of doing a version of Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe.
So is this the opportunity
for a bunch of different cameos from different, quote unquote, universes?
But that's all meant to set up secret wars
where they have a bunch of legacy characters come back
and they do some multiverse Avengers action.
Then I think after they use that as a big swansong
for a lot of these legacy X-Men characters,
then they're going to do way more core MCU rebooted versions of the characters
with new actors,
and that's what we'll start seeing Scarlet Witch crossover with more X-Men movies.
If you don't remember,
Marvel is actually doing new seasons of X-Men, the Animated Series, the first
season of that will premiere later this year.
Of course, I'll do episode videos for that,
but Scarlet Witch is actually canon to that series.
She actually showed up during X-Men, the animated series,
obviously not played by Elizabeth Olsen,
where I would have come before you if I had known you were alive.
We'll never know, will we?
But still, it's another good example of Scarlet
Witch is tied to the X-Men stories.
One of the reasons why they were able to use her
in Avengers Age of Ultron with Quicksilver is is because little loopholes,
because they both shown up in Avengers comics and X-Men comics.
So there was like a weird rights issue where
both Fox and Marvel were able to use the characters for a little while.
Obviously, that's all moot now.
Marvel got the rights to all the characters back.
There's reports about there being some weird contractual issues,
preventing them from recasting some of the major X-Men characters,
and that's the reason why they're waiting until after Secret Wars.
So there might be some practical things
behind the scenes going on with all the new versions of the X-Men.
But either way, long term, we will see new versions of the characters.
We will see Scarlet Witch crossover with them, has some cool stories.
What I'm really hoping is that once we get to Secret Wars and we see like some
real full blown crossover with Fox X-Men characters and MCU characters,
we see Scarlet Witch
with the different versions of Magneto like Michael Fassbender, Magneto and also
Ian McKellen, Magneto, where she starts talking about her parentage.
I'm going to go with Sir Ian McKellen.
And for those of you asking about Quicksilver coming back in Secret Wars
or a crossover movie like that, Aaron Taylor-Johnson is now in the Sony
Marvel movies playing a version of Kraven for Sinister Six spin offs in the future.
He looks super swole right now, so there's always the chance that he comes back.
But I think that he's mostly focused on what's going on in the Sony Marvel movies
with all the Spider-Man spin offs right now,
who would say, okay,
hey, give it another try?
There's just just a bit too close to the kneecap.
So if we get a version of Quicksilver coming back,
I think it'll probably be the Evan Peters version of Quicksilver
and not the Ralph Bohner version of Quicksilver,
like the actual Fox Marvel version of Quicksilver.
What will probably happen, though, is we see more Agatha
Coven of chaos footage and they start releasing teasers.
For that.
We'll get more Easter eggs for Scarlet Witch coming back.
There's a lot of other stuff going on in there.
They're supposedly incorporating more aspects of actual Mephisto in the MCU.
There have been some Easter eggs
in the past and reportedly Sacha Baron Cohen is actually playing a version
of the character in a couple different upcoming Disney Plus series.
But I'm really hoping, you know, long term she's going to have some crossovers
with Doctor Doom as well, like Doctor Strange, Dr.
Doom crossovers in Scarlet Witch, Doctor Doom crossovers, just because
there's so many new magic based characters coming into the MCU.
And Doctor Doom works well in pretty much all those different stories.
There are also some really cool Dr.
Doom, Scarlet Witch based comic book stories, too, but have no fear.
A long time ago, Kevin Feige said that Scarlet Witch
was just really critical to the future of the MCU, so
they always had plans for her to be a big character going forward.
That's one of the reasons why she's joking about revealing things about the future.
Revealing spoilers.
Oh, if I said anything, it would be a spoiler
because they're definitely planning on bringing me back.
Big reminder that The Mandalorian Season three starts releasing episodes next week.
Of course I'll do videos for all those episodes.
