Should Scarlet Witch have a standalone movie, too?
The “Avengers: Age of Ultron” movie introduced us to new characters, including the Scarlet Witch, played by Elizabeth Olsen.
At the end of the movie, it was revealed that our Scarlet Witch became an Avenger and that she will appear in the Captain America: Civil War movie. Business Insider had the chance to talk a little bit with the actress at the Toronto International Film Festival where the actress was promoting her new movie, I Saw the Light. She was asked if she’d like to have a standalone movie as some of the other Avengers had. She replied by saying that a standalone movie would not be “necessary” in the MCU. “I’m not sure, honestly. I love my character, I just don’t know how that would fit in the whole Marvel universe or if it would even be necessary. The pressure of a tent pole movie on my shoulders doesn’t feel comfortable”, she said. However, if they decide to make a movie all about the Scarlet Witch, I do hope that firstly they would make a movie all about Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson).
After wrapping up the productions for the Marvel movie The Avengers: Age of Ultron, Elizabeth started productions on another project, very different from the Marvel one. She played in “I Saw The Light” with another MCU actor, Tom Hiddleston. Elizabeth Olsen reveals that she is very excited to play in Marvel movies or other productions as well. “The good thing about Marvel is they have so many other things going on that they have to plan their year so specifically. I already know my block of time for them for the next year, and I have a lot of time until then, so I’m in a position right now where I’m trying to find another film like ‘I Saw The Light'”, she said.
Collider successfully had an interview with her, where Elizabeth Olsen revealed more interesting things about the upcoming Marvel movie, Captain America: Civil War. “I was only there for five weeks of it, but we were all super stoked about it… Even though the Ultron robots are so intensely human because of its mind, we’re actually dealing with humans this time through and through. There’s nothing scarier than something that’s like you being dangerous, so I think it’s darker and it’s fun. It’s really fun, it was so hard to shoot, but I think it’s gonna be a really interesting film. I’m excited to see how they’re gonna end it. I wanna see what the ending shots look like because I wanna know what the ellipses is at the end of the film (laughs). ”
Scarlet Witch will soon become one of my favorite Marvel characters.

New PS5 Patch Introduces Rare 40FPS Mode for Avatar Game
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has received an exciting update that introduces a new graphical mode, elevating the game’s visual experience. With a smooth frame rate of 40 frames per second and enhanced resolutions, players can now immerse themselves in even more stunning and detailed environments. Now downloadable on PS5 with the latest patch 3.2, this mode is compatible with 4K TVs that can handle up to 120 Hz. Before this update, Avatar PS5 only offered quality and performance modes. However, with this new option, players can now enjoy the benefits of both modes after downloading the 2.4GB update.
Throughout the PS5 era, 40fps modes have been a rarity, much to the disappointment of the hardcore community. Insomniac Games first introduced them in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and later added the feature to Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. They also included it in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Other PS5 titles, such as Hogwarts Legacy, Lies of P, and God of War Ragnarok, also offer 40fps modes.
In addition to that, Patch 3.2 for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora brings along the following:
Worldwide:
- Research Station Alpha now features a convenient Fast Travel option
- The issue of controller re-mapping and resetting on game restart has been resolved
- Addressed multiple instances of crashes
- I corrected a few spelling errors
- Addressed the issue of voice lines overlapping during dialogue
Primary Objectives & Optional Objectives:
- [Main Quest: Shadows of the Past] This main quest is an intriguing journey into the depths of history. Addressed a bug that previously hindered quest progression in co-op mode
More bug fixes have been implemented.
- [Available on all platforms] The rescued human characters no longer return to the Resistance HQ wearing masks
- Available on all platforms. There is a noticeable improvement in the visibility of NPCs when they are at the edge of the Player’s vision
