Wanda Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

Wanda Maximoff is a character portrayed by Elizabeth Olsen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise. Based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name, she is depicted as a Sokovian orphan who, alongside her twin brother Pietro Maximoff, volunteers to undergo Hydra's experiments with the Mind Stone, which awaken Wanda's latent mythical ability to harness chaos magic and imbue her with psionic and telekinetic powers. Wanda and Pietro join Ultron to seek revenge against Tony Stark for the death of their parents, but defect to the Avengers upon learning of Ultron's plan to cause human extinction, during which Pietro is killed. Wanda becomes one of the Avengers' most powerful members and develops a romantic relationship with team member Vision until he is killed by Thanos and she falls victim to the Blip.

After collapsing the "Hex" reality, Wanda is corrupted by the Darkhold and attempts to take teenager America Chavez's multiverse-traveling abilities to reunite with alternate versions of her children.
