Is the Scarlet Witch Dead?

Published in MCU Character Status 1 min read

Yes, the Scarlet Witch, also known as Wanda Maximoff, is officially considered dead in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

The Fate of Wanda Maximoff

Wanda Maximoff's demise occurred at the climactic conclusion of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. In a profound act of self-sacrifice, she collapsed the Darkhold Castle upon herself. Her ultimate goal was to destroy every version of the corrupting Darkhold in every universe, preventing its evil influence from spreading further.

This sacrificial act seemingly ended her journey within the MCU. While her death was depicted with some ambiguity, a subtle detail revealed in the Disney+ series Agatha All Along has further confirmed her deceased status within the official Marvel canon. This reinforces that her heroic final moments in the Darkhold Castle indeed led to her permanent demise in the current continuity.
