New Reports Tease More Details Regarding Scarlet Witch’s Connection To Doctor Doom in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’

Scarlet Witch is one of the most popular former Avengers, mainly because of her powerful character journey, which ended in a tragic way. She went from villain to hero, then back to villain, and her MCU story ended with her making a self-sacrifice.
However, no one really thinks she’s gone for good—it’s hard to believe someone as powerful as her would be defeated by falling debris from a collapsing temple. Especially in light of events that happened during ‘Agatha All Along.’
Wanda now has more reasons than ever to be returned to the MCU, and if the recent rumors are to be believed, this will happen sooner rather than later. Previously we’ve covered rumors that Scarlet Witch will have a spotlight in both upcoming ‘Avengers’ movies and that she will supposedly have a romantic connection to Doctor Doom.
We’ve also explained that it makes sense considering her and Doom’s storyline in ‘The Children’s Crusade. In this story, the Young Avengers, particularly Wanda’s son Wiccan, search for her after the events of ‘House of M,’ where she had wiped out most of the mutant population.
During the story, Doom helps Wanda regain her memories and powers, and there’s a moment where it’s implied that Doom has a manipulative interest in her.
At one point, it is revealed that Wanda and Doom were working together, with Doom claiming to have romantic feelings for her. However, this was more about Doom’s personal ambitions and his desire for power than a genuine, healthy romantic connection.
They form a brief alliance, and Doom uses Wanda’s powers in his bid to gain control of immense magical energy. This results in disastrous consequences, as Doom’s quest for power leads to more chaos.
Now it’s been heavily rumored that the MCU will adapt ‘The Children’s Crusade’ once again, the events of ‘Agatha All Along’ lending credence to that rumor.
Now popular insider channel Beyond the Trailer reveals new information regarding Wanda’s role and connection to Doom in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’
Reports suggest that Elizabeth Olsen will return as Earth-616’s Wanda Maximoff in ‘Avengers: Doomsday,’ meaning she survived the events of ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.’
Her actions in the Multiverse, especially destroying the Darkhold, may bring her to Doctor Doom’s attention. While fans rejected the idea of Wanda being a villain, Doom is likely to manipulate or take advantage of her.
The reports also mention potential solo films for Scarlet Witch and Wiccan, as well as the possibility of a ‘Young Avengers’ project, which is also something we’ve covered extensively in the last several months. Additionally, Aubrey Plaza is rumored to play Death across multiple Marvel projects.
It’s clear that ‘Agatha All Along’ kickstarted great things for Scarlet Witch, and considering the popularity of all projects that feature her, it’s not surprising that the MCU will deal with that magical and occult side of the MCU in more depth.
