Joss Whedon recently confirmed that both the Scarlet Witch and brother Quicksilver will be appearing in THE AVENGERS 2. An interesting point to come out of that confirmation is that Marvel Studios is apparently seeing Saoirse Ronan as the blue-print for their version of the Scarlet Witch. Speaking to The Mary Sue, Ronan has addressed those rumours.

She said, “I have heard about it and yes, I would. Yeah, of course I would. I love Joss and I love those films, and I love his handle on them and how he portrayed these kinds of superheroes. I think it’s very different from what anyone else has done. So yeah, I’d love to be in it.”

So, it seems as if Marvel see her as the ideal fit, and that she’s more than open to the idea. I guess we’ll see have to see how this develops over the next few months, but it seems a logical fit right now.

THE AVENGERS 2 is currently set for bring Marvel’s Phase Two of films to a conclusion on 1st May, 2015.
