We know her as Wanda Maximoff or the Scarlet Witch from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. She is also famous for being the younger sister of the fashion designers Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen.

We got to know the twin sisters when they appeared in Full House. Elizabeth also appeared in other shows with her older sisters when she was much younger.

But where is Elizabeth now, and what happened to her? Is she still part of the Marvel Universe? Let’s find out more about Elizabeth Olsen after her Marvel movie journey.

Will She Be Back?

Elizabeth Olsen’s fans often ask whether she will return to the Marvel Universe as the Scarlet Witch after she dies in Dr. Strange 2. After all, she has been part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2015 as half of the Maximoff twins in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

But after nearly a decade of playing as Wanda Maximoff, Elizabeth Olsen was looking for something else than just being the Scarlet Witch. Despite being rewarded with Emmy nominations, Elizabeth Olsen is ready to move on from the Marvel Universe. She is drawn to different challenges and loves playing fascinating and non-hero characters.

Elizabeth is a fun-loving person, loved by moviegoers and her fans and known for occasional break to play live blackjack or something entirely different. Here, Olsen was seen playing the tables. After all, a bit of downtime between projects is sometimes necessary for a great actress such as her to clear the mind and consider the future.

What’s Next

Elizabeth explained that the desire to look in other directions is more about what she needs as an actor. The fact that she is not returning to the Marvel Universe has nothing to do with the Scarlet Witch or the MCU.

She built her career around playing strange and unusual female characters that are not cast in a traditional role. Olsen believed it was because she didn’t feel right with other roles, so it was a deliberate choice.

According to her, she doesn’t know how to be an innocent or righteous person, so she will not fit in with this cast.

Two Movies in 2017

Elizabeth Olsen played in two movies in 2017 while still involved with the Marvel Universe. These movies were much different from the characters she played for many years. Olsen says that she wants more of these roles, which brings greater variation to her acting career.

This film is about a young woman, Ingrid, who became obsessed with a social media influencer, Tayler Sloan. Ingrid moves to New York and tries everything she can to win the favor of the social media influencer.

It is an American Black Comedy drama film, and Elizabeth Olsen plays the role of the narcissistic influencer. Ingrid, played by Aubrey Plaza, is a mentally unstable person obsessed with social media and has attachment issues.

Wind River

The movie is a humanistic crime story set on a Native American reservation in Wyoming. Elizabeth Olsen is the FBI agent in this Neo-Western crime film teaming up with a wildlife officer to solve a murder.

Elizabeth Olsen plays the role of a rookie FBI agent, Jane Banner, who is plunged into a strange murder investigation. The investigation is about the death of a young woman that turned out to be a homicide.
