Scarlet Witch will join Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in Avengers: Age of Ultron but don’t expect her signature look.

 

Director Joss Whedon gave hints of how Wanda might look on the big screen in a chat with The Nerdist.

 

“She might wear a headband or something that might echo it. The guys at Marvel, the conceptual artists, are phenomenal, and they are so good at taking the essence of what works and interpreting it for the actual human body, and when they paint something you can not only tell how it’s gonna work on a person, you can even tell what fabric it’ll be. They are very specific, very talented. So I’m excited to see the designs. Obviously we want to echo the look that people know, but there’s the classic look and the Ultimates look, but you have to do it in a way that will work. But it can’t be too old school… she can’t wear a leotard.”

 

Avengers: Age of Ultron arrives May 1, 2015.

 

In the comics you can see Wanda in Uncanny Avengers by Rick Remender.

 

Still no word on casting but I’m staying true to my original picks: Rooney Mara or Noomi Rapace.
