It is suspicious that Hollywood Reporter is publishing this article now, yes. But on the other hand it's just her giving an answer to a question she probably gets all the time
I really liked Wandavision. But, in Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness, they completely reverted her entire redemption arc, so now she's out of the MCU. For no reason... WTF, they couldn't think of another villain to use??
Edit: Sorry, didn't mean to reply this to another comment...
Her high point was almost taking care of Thanos. If she hadn't been bent on a slow revenge, it would have been different. I wonder if one of Strange's failed paths is him trying to convince her to just do it without making him suffer.
