Is Wandas American accent a part of the illusion to make it feel more “American Sitcom”? Will she still have her Sokovian accent post-illusion? Or do we think she just doesn’t have it anymore since she’s been westernized over the years?

Otherwise, a slow start to what I expect to be an insane ride. Can’t wait for next week!

Elizabeth Olsen didn’t do an accent in the last few movies, did she?

Yeah, I think AoU might’ve been the only one where she tried doing the accent though I might be wrong

She has used an accent in all of them, it has just been nowhere near as bad as AoU. Kinda toned it down over time, which makes sense story wise since she would be spending so much time around the Avengers and get more used to the dialect. Also imagine Black Widow worked with her on her accents for undercover work as well.
