After you file
You can still file a return. Since you haven't yet changed your name with the Social Security Administration, you will need to file using your maiden name if you plan to file electronically (which is recommended.)
The fact that your W-2 has your married name won't cause any conflicts so long as the Social Security number is correctly listed on that form.
This sort of thing happens with many taxpayers annually and does not cause problems.
