Elizabeth Olsen has revealed that her personal film taste doesnt necessarily align with projects shes starred in, namely Marvel movies.

The actress, who played WandaMaximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe over nearly a decade, recently shared on NPRs Wild Card with Rachel Martin podcast that she feels pressure to prove her creative taste when it comes to the content she consumes.

I think I havent always successfully made choices in my work that are aligned with my personal taste and that is something I feel like Im still trying to prove when I meet people, Olsen explained. Especially if its a work-type meeting and be able to express my personal taste in films, literature, and so I still think I have that to prove. The Love Death star continued, Because I have spent so many years doing Marvel that I feel like all the other jobs I have to do have to really reflect my personal taste, because as much as I love being a part of this world and Im proud of what Ive been able to do with the character its not really the art that I consume. Which I have been very honest about.

Olsen first debuted her Scarlet Witch character in 2015s Avengers: Age of Ultron before going on to appear in several other Marvel films, including Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019) and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022). She also scored an Emmy nomination for best actress in a limited or anthology series or movie for her performance in the Disney+ series WandaVision (2021).

Olsen later reiterated that shes still extremely proud of her work with Marvel, despite preferring to watch films outside of the superhero genre.

I thought they were such great Greek-type scale stories that reflected politics, culture in a really lovely way, The Assessment actress said. And so I felt really proud to jump into it. And then, within the last 10 years, its taken on this narrative of like, its like a hot take, whether an actor says they would never do a Marvel movie or not.

Though Olsen shared last year that shes open to returning as the Scarlet Witch when theres a way to use her well, she told The Hollywood Reporter in March that she wont be a part of the Russo brothers two upcomingAvengersmovies,DoomsdayandSecret Wars.
