In the realm of Disney+’s “WandaVision,” Elizabeth Olsen wielded powers unique to her Scarlet Witch character. Yet, outside the fictional world, Olsen embodies a stark contrast.
Entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) post-Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” Olsen brought depth and authenticity to her role, particularly in her dynamic with fellow actress Scarlett Johansson, aka Black Widow.
During “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” press events, Olsen candidly expressed her admiration for Johansson, prompted by Johansson’s unexpected remarks about her acting.
Johansson, seasoned from over a decade in the MCU, acknowledged the relief she felt when Olsen joined, balancing out the male-dominated landscape.
She praised Olsen’s portrayal, noting its sensuality and passion, which humbled Johansson.
Despite Black Widow’s ultimate sacrifice in “Avengers: Endgame,” paving the way for Olsen’s future in the franchise, both actresses found inspiration in each other.
The multiversal chaos in the Doctor Strange sequel allowed Olsen to explore her character’s depths further.
With the addition of young talent like Xochitl Gomez, Olsen recognized women’s progress, crediting Johansson as an inspiration.
In a Variety interview, Olsen reflected on Johansson’s influence, particularly in inclusivity and teamwork, elements she’s embraced in her life since.
While Marvel’s multiverse opens doors to endless possibilities, Olsen, at 34, has dispelled rumors of her immediate return to the role.
