Matt Shakman, the director behind WandaVision, has now commented on the prospect of the Scarlet Witch’s possible comeback in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. His work on the popular Disney+ show earned him two Emmy nominations, one for Outstanding Directing and another for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series.
After more than three years since it appeared Elizabeth Olsen’s beloved character met her end in Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Marvel Studios has kept mum about their plans for Scarlet Witch. This silence has left fans speculating that perhaps Wanda Maximoff is truly gone from the MCU.

During a recent conversation with ScreenRant, when asked if Olsen’s Scarlet Witch is truly deceased, Shakman offered a hopeful reply suggesting that “Wanda remains present” possibly indicating her potential reappearance in upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe productions.
Furthermore, Shakman additionally discussed the likenesses he found between his work on WandaVision and his forthcoming directing role for Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps. He elaborated that he enjoyed the opportunity to explore and innovate with both projects’ aesthetic and thematic elements as a director.

He shared that they were both incredibly joyful, and he considers them as the pinnacle of his directing journey. He found working on WandaVision exceptional, with a captivating world and an outstanding cast, including Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Kathryn Hahn, among others. The experience was filled with enjoyment, and it required extensive rehearsals to ensure everyone grasped the sitcom realities, tone, and style we were aiming for.
Shakman elaborated, “The process here (The Fantastic Four: First Steps) was quite comparable. We spent three weeks in rehearsals before commencing shooting since we were constructing a distinct universe. Our goal was to create a family that appeared genuine and inhabited, as well as a ’60s setting that maintained a consistent aesthetic, but also style, mood, and filmmaking approach. Consequently, both projects served as stylistic and tonal explorations, which I find fascinating as a director. Despite their differences, there were valuable lessons gleaned from one to the other.
