Marvel Studios star Elizabeth Olsen swears she doesn’t know anything about Avengers: Doomsday (and says it’s better that way)

Elizabeth Olsen is in the dark about the future of the MCU, and that’s just the way she likes it

If you looking to Elizabeth Olsen for hints about the future of the MCU, then look elsewhere. The actress, who played Scarlet Witch, is just as in the dark as we are.

“I know nothing. I know about VisionQuest because I’ve seen Paul [Bettany, star of the series] in the last six months, and I know nothing about any of [the next Avengers movies],” Elizabeth Olsen promised during her spotlight panel at C2E2 2026.

Even if Marvel offered to clue her in, Olsen prefers not knowing. This way she doesn’t have to be on guard every time she appears at a convention or does an interview. “Honestly, I just don’t know what’s going on. It’s safer for me to not know anything, because then I can’t make a mistake in a situation like this,” she explained. “So I know nothing. And I rather know nothing, to be honest, because I do say things.”

It’s possible that she’s pulling an Andrew Garfield and keeping things close to the vest, but either way, don’t look to Olsen for Avengers: Doomsday spoilers. The Scarlet Witch’s lips are sealed.  

Avengers: Doomsday will be released December 18, 2026. We'll see if Elizabeth Olsen was pretending or not then, if nothing else.
