🚨 There are MASSIVE — and I MEAN MASSIVE — spoilers ahead for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness! 🚨
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness finally hit theaters this weekend. The Sam Raimi–directed movie starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Elizabeth Olsen marked the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first dive into the low-key horror genre.
Following the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home and WandaVision, the film finds Doctor Strange (Cumberbatch) now dealing with the multiverse as he meets America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez), a young superhero who can travel the multiverse.
And while the movie was in fact a Doctor Strange film, it's pretty hard to not leave the theater talking about Elizabeth Olsen's work as Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff.
Fresh off her Emmy-nominated work on WandaVision, Elizabeth Olsen brought Wanda into her long-awaited Scarlet Witch era with this movie. Wanda has been overtaken by the Darkhold and is hellbent on finding a universe where she can be with her sons, Billy and Tommy.
It's a gut-punch of a performance from Lizzie, who proves once again she can easily lead any movie or TV show, as Scarlet Witch embraces her powers and becomes the central villain of the movie.
While there are some critiques of the film (and Wanda's character arc), what everyone seems to be in agreement on is that Elizabeth Olsen delivers one of the best MCU performances to date during every scene she's in:
1.
Elizabeth Olsen was MENACING as the #ScarletWitch
2.
best performance the mcu has ever gotten and we all know it’s true.#MultiverseOfMadness #ElizabethOlsen
3.
the way elizabeth olsen as scarlet witch served in every scenes, sorry but SHE CARRIED THE WHOLE MOVIE #MultiverseOfMadness #Wanda
4.
i honestly didn't think it was possible but this scarlet witch/wanda moment in #multiverseofmadness was somehow even more heartbreaking in context and might be one of the best performances in the MCU. elizabeth olsen is really out here making me sob all the damn time
5.
The fact that this #Wanda variant was able to easily forgive the Scarlet Witch because she lived her life in her dreams and she knows everything she's been through.
6.

I just want to take a moment to praise Elizabeth Olsen’s acting through the duration of the “Illuminati” scene. She managed to make me see the Scarlet Witch and not Wanda. Her expressions, voice and everything about her reflected that personality #MultiverseOfMadness
11.
Settled. Wanda Maximoff is the most powerful avenger.#MultiverseOfMadness #WandaMaximoff
12.
Elizabeth Olsen fully embraced herself as the Scarlet Witch in Multiverse of Madness.Just an insanely show-stopping performance.
13.
Also, this is Elizabeth Olsen's best performance yet. From her brutal, violent role to a caring mother and to a vulnerable, devastated witch. She put on an acting masterclass from start to finish. Give her all the awards SHE DESERVES!!! #MultiverseOfMadness #ScarletWitch

“People are allowed to dislike fictional characters” INCORRECT!! Nobody is allowed to dislike Wanda Maximoff / The Scarlet Witch
