The blockbuster hit 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' introduced two new Marvel heroes, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, who seemed like promising additions to the Initiative. Unfortunately, Pietro Maximoff (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) was unexpectedly killed off, leaving his twin Wanda to join the Avengers on her own.
Elizabeth Olsen, who will reprise her role as Scarlet Witch in 'Captain America: Civil War,' revealed to MTV that her character has moved on after the death of her brother.
"She's OK," Olsen said. "She's doing alright. She's confused, she's conflicted. She's found some people she thinks she connects with, but she's doing alright."
The 'I Saw the Light' star also commented on the fact that Scarlet Witch is not featured in the 'Captain America: Civil War' promo images, hinting that she could be in either team.
"They released images of Team Cap and Team Iron Man. She wasn't there," Olsen said. "She's always the wild card."
She coyly added, "I like being the wild card."

It is most likely that Scarlet Witch would join Team Captain America, since Elizabeth Olsen has been spotted filming scenes with Chris Evans. However, there is still a possibility that fans would get blindsided and Wanda Maximoff could get over her issues against Tony Stark by joining Team Iron Man.
Whether she chooses to be in Team Captain America or Team Iron Man, Scarlet Witch is sure to be a changed woman in 'Civil War.' Elizabeth Olsen reveals that she worked with her 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' movement coach Jennifer White to create new techniques for Wanda Maximoff.
"It's not a new hand technique per say," Olsen said. "We're trying to grow her movement as a whole... Jenny and I have great pride in trying to make this a huge transformation - the next time we see her - of her abilities."
