Samuel L. Jackson: Elizabeth Olsen IS Scarlet Witch

For those of you who may have been lucky enough to catch this week episode of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD, you may have noticed a familiar face show up at the end...the one and only Nick Fury, played by Samuel L. Jackson.

Sammy L. just recently chatted with the Wall Street Journal about his cameo, and when asked about when production is set to begin on Avengers: Age of Ultron, pretty much confirmed the rumours we've been hearing surrounding the casting of the Scarlet Witch:
“I don’t think we begin shooting before March of next year. I know we’re shooting in London, that James Spader is Ultron and going to be the bad guy, and that we added Ms. [Elizabeth] Olsen [who will play the Scarlet Witch], but I don’t know what she’s doing, if she’s on the inside or the outside. I haven’t seen a script.”


Next to an official Marvel confirmation, Olsen seems to have a lock on the role of  Wanda Maximoff AKA Scarlet Witch. It has previously been confirmed that Aaron Taylor-Johnson will be playing Pietro Maximoff, also known as Quicksilver.

Marvel has also hinted that we may see more cameos in AoS, which should continue to bring back fan boys and girls every week. I know I'll be back!!

You can watch Agents of SHIELD Tuesdays at 8pm EST on ABC/CTV. Avengers: Age of Ultron will hit theatres on May 1st, 2015.
