'We Are on Doom's Side': Scarlet Witch's Reported Return Sparks Rumours of Doctor Doom's Team

Doctor Doom revives Wanda Maximoff, setting up Scarlet Witch as one of his lieutenants in Avengers: Doomsday, Marvel said.

  • The VisionQuest finale, released on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, revealed that Scarlet Witch, aka Wanda Maximoff, survived being buried under Mount Wundagore at the end of the 2022 movie Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
  • While audiences believed Wanda died after collapsing a temple onto herself, Doctor Doom arrived in the post-credits scene to revive her, saying, "Scarlet Witch, awaken; your power will be mine."
  • This sequence establishes Wanda as one of Doom's lieutenants for the upcoming film Avengers: Doomsday, while Doom has also collected other ex-Avengers, including Bruce Banner, aka the Hulk, for reasons yet to be explained.
  • Avengers: Doomsday, the fifth Avengers movie and the 39th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is scheduled for release on December 18, already generating more than $125m in advanced ticket sales.
  • Following the finale, Marvel Studios teased a reunion on X, referencing a quote from the WandaVision finale: "We could never leave each other, even if we tried," suggesting emotional stakes for the upcoming crossover.
