The VisionQuest season 1 finale includes a post-credits scene in which a hooded figure, widely identified as Doctor Doom, wakes Wanda Maximoff. Marvel has not billed Elizabeth Olsen in Avengers: Doomsday.

This article describes the post-credits scene in the season 1 finale of VisionQuest, including character spoilers.
The season 1 finale of VisionQuest, titled "Forever" and released on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, ends with a post-credits scene in which a hooded figure lifts rubble at Wundagore off Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch, played by Elizabeth Olsen. Deadline reports that the figure "appears to be Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom" and quotes the line, "Scarlet Witch, awaken. Your power will be mine."
The scene is a tease. It is not the same thing as Marvel billing Olsen in Avengers: Doomsday.
What Deadline says is on screen
According to Deadline, the hooded figure raises the rubble of Wundagore after Wanda "seemingly killed herself under the collapsing mountain" in 2022's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The trade describes the moment as a hint at Olsen's return for Avengers: Doomsday, which Marvel says opens in theaters on December 18.
The same finale, Deadline says, reunites Vision, played by Paul Bettany, with Tommy and Billy, played by Ruaridh Mollica and Joe Locke. The series follows events from WandaVision and Agatha All Along.
Deadline also notes that Marvel Studios posted a binary-code message ahead of the finale that appears to translate to, "We could never truly leave each other, even if we tried," a line Wanda spoke to Tommy and Billy in the WandaVision finale.
What has, and has not, been confirmed
Elizabeth Olsen is not on Marvel's announced principal cast for Avengers: Doomsday. A post-credits tease can set up a later appearance, a vision, a variant, or a misdirect. Until Marvel or the filmmakers say she is in the film, that remains unconfirmed.
Deadline notes that Olsen, asked in March about a possible return to the MCU, said, "I know nothing." She added that she would rather not know, "because then I can't make a mistake in a situation like this." That comment is months old and is not a confirmation or a denial of the new scene.
Robert Downey Jr. is officially attached to Avengers: Doomsday as Victor von Doom / Doctor Doom, not as Tony Stark. The hooded figure in the finale has been widely identified as Doom; Deadline itself uses "appears to be."
Avengers: Doomsday opens in the United States on December 18, 2026, according to Marvel.
The takeaway
The VisionQuest finale clearly puts Wanda back on screen and points at Doctor Doom. That is worth watching if you follow the film. It is not, on its own, an official announcement that Olsen is in Avengers: Doomsday. Treat the scene as a teaser until Marvel says more.
