“I remember people saying at the end of Wandavision, ‘She has no accountability!’” Elizabeth told the outlet. “She’s gonna take accountability for herself, she’s gonna isolate, she’s gonna think about it, and she’s gonna grow.”
While Multiverse of Madness is a sequel to 2016′s Doctor Strange, it explores a lot of the plotlines that had been set up in Wandavision.
“Getting to do Wandavision and then coming into this film, my priority was, how do we continue the thread, but how do we also make it different?” Elizabeth recalled. “How is there an evolution, how can we keep it exciting for the fans? And how can we ground her and show them something they haven’t seen yet? And I’m really looking forward for the fan response after this film. I think everyone’s in for a ride.”
She went on to discuss what it’s been like working on the press tour for the film, as she was unable to participate in an in-person, live tour for Wandavision due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s really surreal. I keep hearing about the response, but it’s hard to actually connect with it until you’re actually at a premiere like this,” she said. “It’s wild. This is eight years now for me with Marvel, and I just feel so grateful to still be here and to have grown this character to what she’s become. But I’m also grateful to Kevin Feige for giving me the opportunity to do Wandavision and having the idea.”
Elizabeth also discussed the new character America Chavez, who’s being played by 16-year-old Xochitl Gomez. “She has such a vitality to her, she has so much confidence being so young,” she said. “She has so much confidence being so young. I was 25 when I started, and she’s way better off than I was when I started.”
The actress made her MCU debut in 2015 and shared that she often looked to her co-star Scarlett Johansson to learn the ropes.
“I remember being on Ultron and seeing how she was with the crew,” Elizabeth shared. “I was just amazed by her ease and her comfort and how she includes the crew in everything, and how she makes everyone part of the team and feel excited to come to work. And I’ve really taken that into my life since then.”
She said that it’s a little “shocking” to be mentoring a new addition to the cast, adding that “it’s amazing that we’ve gone through [iterations of the MCU] and it’s been this long, that now we have these different ages of women.”
