Spoiler warning: this story describes the ending and the post-credits scene of the VisionQuest finale, now streaming on Disney+.
Wanda Maximoff is not finished with the Marvel Cinematic Universe after all. The VisionQuest series finale, which arrived on Disney+ Tuesday night, Nov. 10, ends with a post-credits scene in which Doctor Doom pulls Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch out of the ruins of Mount Wundagore and wakes her up. TheWrap reported that Marvel held the scene back from the screeners it sent to critics, so most viewers met it cold.
The featured image shows Elizabeth Olsen at Los Angeles Comic Con in September 2025. It is not a still from the episode.
The Lowdown
Wanda appeared to die at the end of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in 2022, and Marvel has spent four years letting fans wonder. This coda answers the “is she alive” question, and it ties a Disney+ series directly to the next big Avengers movie, which opens in about five weeks. What it does not answer is how she will be used. Doom is taking her power in the scene, which suggests she may not be on the heroes’ side at first. That last part is our reading, not something Marvel has said.
Key Takeaways
- The VisionQuest finale, titled “Forever,” began streaming on Disney+ at 6 p.m. PT on Nov. 10.
- Its post-credits scene replays Wanda’s last stand at Mount Wundagore from Multiverse of Madness, then adds new footage of Doctor Doom lifting the rubble and reviving her.
- Polygon identifies the figure as Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom; Deadline more cautiously calls it a hooded figure that appears to be him.
- The main episode reunites Vision with his sons, Tommy and Billy. Wanda herself is seen only in the coda.
- Avengers: Doomsday opens Dec. 18. Marvel has not said what Wanda’s role in it will be.
Don’t miss the final moment everyone is talking about.

The Full Story
A Family Reunion, Minus One
The bulk of the finale belongs to the family Wanda left behind. Paul Bettany’s Vision gets his sons back: Tommy, played by Ruaridh Mollica, and Billy, played by Joe Locke, who arrives late to complete the reunion. TheWrap’s Andi Ortiz wrote that the boys save their father after the fight with Ultron, voiced and played by James Spader. Near the end, Tommy asks whether they might ever see their mother again. According to ScreenCrush, Vision answers that they have said goodbye before, so they might say hello again.

What Happens After the Credits
The credits then provide the answer. The tag opens on familiar footage: Wanda bringing Wundagore down on herself to destroy every copy of the Darkhold, the ending of the 2022 Doctor Strange sequel. This time the scene keeps going. A figure lifts the fallen stone away, and, as quoted by ScreenCrush and Deadline, says, “Scarlet Witch, awaken. Your power will be mine.” Green magic drifts toward her, and Wanda gasps and opens her eyes before the screen cuts to black. Polygon names the figure as Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom, and Deadline says the hooded figure appears to be him. Marvel itself has not named the actor in its posts.
Marvel’s Breadcrumbs
Marvel Studios leaned into the moment on social media. Around the finale, the studio posted a message written in binary that Polygon and Deadline translated as a line from the end of WandaVision, about a family never truly leaving one another. The morning after, its official account shared a new clip with the line “Don’t miss the final moment everyone is talking about.” That post is embedded above.

What It Means for Doomsday
The reveal sets up the next team-up film, Avengers: Doomsday, which reaches theaters Dec. 18. No outlet we read has a confirmed answer on how big Wanda’s part is, or whether she shows up in that movie, its follow-up, or both. ScreenCrush floated both films as possibilities and noted that Vision and the twins could turn up as well. Fans online treated the coda as the answer to that wait. Our October report on the premiere covers how the series began, and more Marvel coverage is on our Sci-Fi & Fandom page.
