Beyond the Marvel universe, its superheroes and its superpowers, what underlies the background of
Scarlet Witch and Vision
, the latest success with which Disney has had thousands of viewers Friday after Friday glued to its platform, is the way it that its protagonist, Wanda Maximoff, faces the duel.
Without going into much detail so as not to gut the plot to those who have not seen it yet, the chosen format has also allowed Elizabeth Olsen to look like an actress thanks to the variety of registers in which she has moved and by the evolution of your character.
However, while not everyone may remember it, this was not the first time Olsen had portrayed a woman going through a complicated grieving process in a series.

Its two seasons (available for free on Facebook, in the original version with Spanish subtitles) develop a drama that, despite the theme, becomes more bearable than it might seem.
The plot follows the grieving process of a young woman (Olsen) whose husband died three months earlier.
Narrated in two stages, a present in which the woman discovers that perhaps she did not know her husband as well as she thought, and a past in which she still enjoyed an apparently happy marriage, the dramatic situation of the protagonist is counteracted with the slight optimistic tone contributed by secondary characters like his mother and sister.
In the background, the doubt about what really happened to her husband, whose death was closed as an accident, but which could have been a suicide, hovers in the background.
The fact that its chapters last 30 minutes helps to lighten the viewing of episodes on topics as hard as grief or depression.
And if Olsen has attracted attention in

The series also showed the ability to generate debate, albeit in a limited way, in the comments of each chapter.
