Marvel Studios reportedly wants Scarlet Witch to have her own movie. 

Jac Schaeffer is being eyed to write and direct the movie.

Olsen’s performance as Wanda Maximoff has not only earned her love and appreciation from the people but also an Emmy and a Golden Globe nomination as well. Apart from the MCU, Olsen has appeared in movies including Ingrid Goes West, Wind River, Oldboy, Liberal Arts, Silent House, etc., and was well-received by the audience and critics for her acting skills. Fans have always wondered about Olsen’s Scarlet Witch having its solo movie and now there has been an update on the same. Let’s find out.

The MCU’s Wanda Maximoff has had quite the journey thus far. The fan-favorite character, played by Elizabeth Olsen, has been an ally of Ultron, a full-fledged Avenger, and the dangerous force of nature known as The Scarlet Witch.

In her most recent appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, she took a turn for the villainous after being corrupted by the dark magic tome known as the Darkhold. Wanda is extremely popular with the fanbase, so much so, that a large contingent of die-hards want nothing more from the MCU than a Scarlet Witch solo series or film. And while nothing concrete has been announced by Marvel Studios, the publishing arm of the company announced something that may satisfy fans for a while.

According to industry insider Daniel Richtman, Marvel Studios are reportedly working on having Elizabeth Olsen’s character Scarlet Witch have her solo movie just like all the characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe have. An X account (@HollywoodHandle) shared that Jac Schaeffer is being eyed to direct and write the movie for Scarlet Witch. The closest her character to having a solo project was with Disney+’s WandaVision, which gave the audience a deeper look into her character.
