The MCU entered the world of streaming television with a splash thanks to WandaVision, a show about how TV can help us deal with — or escape from — the tragedies of our lives. But while the series changed the MCU, it didn’t deliver everything that hardcore fans wanted. A popular theory speculated that Mephisto would appear, but that didn’t happen until Ironheart four years later. Others wanted Nightmare to emerge, but that didn’t happen either.
In other words, WandaVision was a great show, but one that left a lot of the Scarlet Witch’s comic book stories in the closet. Now, years after her last live-action appearance, actor Elizabeth Olsen still wants to dive into something neither WandaVision nor its spiritual sequel, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, had the bandwidth for.
