More From Elizabeth Olsen On Her "Damaged" 'Scarlet Witch' In THE AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
Rehashing her excitement for what she considers her most damaged character, Elizabeth Olsen talks about the fun she's having learning about Scarlet Witch and joining The Avengers sequel. Check it out!
When SourceTV asked Elizabeth Olsen how exactly did discussions of her playing the Scarlet Witch come about, she said "I don’t really know. I’m still kind of shocked by it. My brother’s a big comic book guy, I subsequently love those types of stories. I love sci-fi, I was raised as the biggest fan of “Star Wars.” And so those movies are fun to make. I’m obsessed with the “Iron Man” movies. And I met Joss [Whedon], I had no idea why and yeah! And it ends up being like the coolest [thing], I’m having so much fun just reading right now. It’s really awesome."
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.
