With Avengers: Doomsday set to arrive in theatres next month, fan theories surrounding the Marvel film are gaining momentum. The finale of VisionQuest has given fans a major reason to revisit one of the biggest questions surrounding the upcoming film: Is Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch, returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
For months, fans have speculated about Elizabeth Olsen’s possible return, particularly after the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. In the 2022 film, Wanda embraces her darker side as she sets out to find America Chavez and harness her ability to travel across the multiverse. After realising the destruction she has caused, Wanda decides to destroy the Darkhold and bring down Mount Wundagore, the place where it was created. The mountain collapses on her, seemingly killing her in the process.
However, the film never shows her body or explicitly confirms her death, leaving room for speculation about her eventual return.
Now, VisionQuest has seemingly confirmed that Wanda is alive. The series finale features two post-credits scenes, with the second establishing a significant connection to Avengers: Doomsday.
The scene revisits the destruction of Mount Wundagore before introducing Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom. He is seen lifting the rubble surrounding Wanda and commanding her to awaken, adding that he intends to claim her powers.
He says, “Scarlet Witch, awaken. Your power will be mine.” Wanda then opens her eyes, confirming that she is alive.

The timing of Wanda’s return also raises questions about what Doctor Doom has planned for her. Played by Downey Jr., Doom is set to be the central threat in Avengers: Doomsday.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and written by Stephen McFeely, Avengers: Doomsday will bring together heroes from three distinct universes as they face an existential threat. The cast includes Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Florence Pugh, Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Paul Rudd, Letitia Wright, Chris Evans, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen and James Marsden, among several others.
Avengers: Doomsday will be released in India on December 17.
