In the following video interview with Total Film, Olsen and Johnson reveal their favorite character traits of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. Johnson also comments on how the duo will have a different dynamic than they did playing husband and wife in Godzilla. Well, I certainly hope so!

I really love these casting choices. I just stare at them and I see Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. Evan Peters is a decent choice to, and it has come to the point where I don't mind the costume very much, but I really like Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

"Oh yeah and um I like Quicksilver because he's like quick and stuff"

I'm really looking forward to the twins in AOU. I actually love the casting choices which is something i love about Marvel Studios.

Funny that in her biggest movie, Elizabeth Olsen is still only known for being a sister

@LEE777, pretty sure Aaron Taylor is married to a 47 yr old director.

Uuuh, are there any other characters in this movie?

This is like the 100th post of these two telling us the same thing over and over.

A: "I love Whedon. I love my character."

B: "Whedon is so smart. I love my character."

C: "I'm afraid to say anything."

D: "Marvel snipers are everywhere."

Wash, rinse, repeat.

I always find it funny how marvel wants their actors to shut up.
MrCBM56
MrCBM56 - 5/10/2014, 7:07 AM
While I do believe the "Marvel Snipers" has been taken out of context, that Don Cheadle video was really funny.

I'm so ready for this film. It's a year away though:/

The whole "Marvel snipers" thing kinda seems like a run-on now. It was hilarious in the Cheadle video, but not since then. I think it's time to retire that bit.

@MrBlackJack The thing is it's not a joke. I mean the sniper part yeah its a joke but Marvel Studios do actually make their actors keep a lid on things. They are very secretive and hate it when secrets are spilled.

@Battabing
It's because these two are doing their media/publicity run for Godzilla.
The rest of the cast must be filming behind close doors right now.
It's been a while since any leaked footage.

Why does Elizibeth Olsen look hotter her than she has in any of the footage or pictures I have seen for Avengers:AOU?

It's just about impossible for me to find an avatar I like.

@AstonishingArachnid I know, that's the way it is with everyone/thing.

@ThroatTheUncle: Yeah, she looks so hot it took a while before I even noticed what the heck she was wearing..

Yeah same recycled answers.

From what we've seen, I prefer DOFP Quicksilver too. DOFP Quicksilver seems like he's going to be one of the best parts of the film.

@MrBlackJack
"DOFP Quicksilver seems like he's going to be one of the best parts of the film"

Considering all the reviews are saying that the Quicksilver aspect is the best part - its beginning to make me wonder if its a terrible film and that just happens to be the only scene that doesn't suck...

x-men days of future past quicksilver looks terrible,yeah the action scenes may look okay but that costume is f*ckin shit.

quicksilver looked pretty decent at the end of captain america the winter soldier.

@ AlexanderLykins

captain america porn parody has the most comic book accurate quicksilver costume.
MrBlackJack
MrBlackJack - 5/10/2014, 7:52 AM
@Scarilian I find that scenario unlikely but whatever.

@CoulsonLives

I respect your opinion dude, (and DoFP Quicksilver's powers look cool) but we really haven't had a chance to see Avengers Quicksilver in action yet besides a short 10 second clip.
Just give him a chance man!
...Just give him a chance...
