Elizabeth Olsen Describes Her Favorite Moment Filming WandaVision

Elizabeth Olsen has revealed her favorite moment from filming WandaVision. The hit Marvel Cinematic Universe series told the story of Wanda Maximoff's journey with grief after Vision's (Paul Bettany) death in Avengers: Infinity War. Wanda used her powerful chaos magic to create her own Vision and the two Maximoff twins, Billy (Jullian Hilliard) and Tommy (Jett Klyne). The main issue with Wanda's conjured up family is the fact that they couldn't survive outside of her Westview hex.

Wanda initially finds herself facing this fact when she, Billy, and Tommy discover their dog Sparky died after eating Agnes' (Kathryn Hahn) azaleas in WandaVision episode 5. Billy and Tommy beg Wanda to bring Sparky back from the dead, informing her that they know she has the ability do so. Wanda has a classic sitcom mom talk with the twins, explaining that they can't escape death and that it can't be reversed. It's a classic case of Wanda telling her twin boys to do as she says but not as she does, at least until the end of the series.

During an interview with Entertainment Weekly's The Awardist podcast, Olsen discussed her favorite moment from filming WandaVision. Her answer reveals a fun behind-the-scenes tidbit from working on episode 5 with Hahn, Hilliard, and Klyne. Read about the moment below.

My favorite moment was filming a scene with the kids Julian and Jett, and it's when the dog is dead, and Kathryn has the dog, and I'm telling them that they can't escape death, and Julian at the end of it looked at me and he said, 'That's the best I've ever been! Oh my God that was so good!' And the camera wasn't on him. It was on the other kid, and I didn't have the heart to tell him! And I really do think that in that moment I was like, 'Oh my God, what confidence!' It just gave me so much joy that I think about it all the time.

Olsen's favorite moment is cute because she sounds like a proud mom. There were a lot of great aspects of WandaVision, but arguably one of the best parts of the series was the introduction of Billy and Tommy Maximoff. Their presence in the series showed how good Wanda was as a mom and made the show's finale that much more bittersweet. The twins helped illustrate WandaVision's main villain was always grief, which was never more evident than in the final episode. It featured the moment where Wanda had to let the Maximoff twins go with the heartbreaking line, "Thank you for choosing me to be your mom."

Thankfully, the show gave viewers a teaser of Billy and Tommy's possible return with the WandaVision finale's second post-credit scene, where the twins can be heard calling out to Wanda's Scarlet Witch alter ego. It would be great if Wanda gets the chance to be a mother again and reunite with her children, which seems likely to happen at some point, given the popularity of WandaVision's characters. Wanda's been through hell and back during her time in the MCU so far. Hopefully some sort of happiness and stability that don't involve chaos magic are in her future.
