While we've yet to hear from Elizabeth Olsen about playing Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch in The Avengers sequel, the Godzilla actress confessed her admiration for Iron Man Robert Downey Jr.. Chatting with Dazed and Confused for their September issue, the actress enthuses, “I would do anything with him! If he was part of a project and I could be in any scene with him, I would do it hands down.” She continues, “He’s so talented. And so smart. You just don’t have that kind of humour unless you’re smart. I’m always having a Downey moment,” she laughs. The actress is currently attending the Toronto International Film Festival, so expect more direct talk about The Avengers: Age of Ultron very soon. But In light of Elizabeth Olsen's Downey spasm, can assume she's now in final negotiations with Marvel Studios to play the Scarlet Witch? What do you think?
So far starring Robert Downey, Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Cobie Smulders, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L. Jackson and James Spader, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen in negotiations to join,
The Avengers: Age of Ultron is directed by Joss Whedon from his screenplay, and is slated to begin production in March 2014 and release on May 1, 2015.
