Elizabeth Olsen has said she has no knowledge of upcoming Marvel projects, Avengers Doomsday and Avengers Secret Wars, following renewed speculation about her role in the franchise.

The discussion gained attention after a photo of Olsen posing with Doctor Doom’s helmet at C2E2 circulated widely on social media. The image led to speculation about a possible connection between her character, Wanda Maximoff, and the upcoming films.

Speaking at the event, Olsen addressed questions about her involvement in future Marvel Cinematic Universe projects. “I know nothing. I know about VisionQuest, because I've seen Paul in the last six months. I know nothing about any of it,” she said. “Is [Secret Wars] what happens after? I'm not kidding. Why did I think there were two Secret Wars? Are there not?”

She added, “I thought there was an umbrella. They've been talking about these movies for a while, and it shifted.”

Olsen’s comments come amid ongoing speculation regarding Wanda Maximoff’s future following the events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

While some reports have suggested a possible connection between the character and Doctor Doom, no official confirmation has been provided.

The Russo Brothers are set to direct both Doomsday and Secret Wars, with scripts from Stephen McFeely and contributions from Michael Waldron.

Avengers Doomsday is scheduled for release on December 18, while Avengers Secret Wars is expected to follow on December 17, 2027.
