Elizabeth Olsen Explains Desire to Branch Out From Scarlet Witch Role

Elizbeth Olsen is opening up about her relationship with her Marvel Cinematic Universe character the Scarlet Witch.

The 34-year-old actress made her MCU debut in 2015′s Avengers: Age of Ultron. After a twisting story arc, her character seemingly perished at the end of 2022′s Doctor Strang in the Multiverse of Madness.

However, superhero fans know that a character can come back to life in the blink of an eye. Thus, Elizabeth‘s future in the universe is unclear.

In a recent interview, she addressed her desire to branch out and take on different roles at the moment.

“Specifically in the last four years, my output has been Marvel,” Elizabeth told The Times of London, via Variety.

She continued, saying, “I don’t want… it’s not that I don’t want to be associated as just this character. But I really feel like I need to be building other parts back up for balance. I so much want to do films right now. And I hope some of them come together in the way I feel like they can.”

“But yeah, that’s something that I need. I just need other characters in my life. There’s no longevity in one character,” Elizabeth explained.

The actress added that she gets “satisfaction from the variation.”

Elizabeth explained why she didn’t miss playing the Scarlet Witch in a recent interview. She also had some advice for future Marvel stars.
