Predicting Marvel's MCU TV Shows

4. Scarlet Witch: Fugitive

Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff was one of two characters mooted to get their own limited series in Variety's report, and given the time-gap between Civil War and Infinity War, it makes a whole lot of sense.

Scarlet Witch goes on the run after being broken out of the off-land supermax, and it's established that she and Vision secretly meet while she travels Europe, before eventually settling in Edinburgh.

With that premise in mind, it's easy to see how Marvel could make a compelling series all about Wanda having to reconcile her fugitive status with wanting to help those in need. It's unclear as of yet how this'll impact Olsen's commitments to the films, but it's easy to see how a Scarlet Witch show could work - especially with the lore of the X-Men to utilise in just a few months' time.
