Elizabeth Olsen talks GODZILLA and AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON characters
Elizabeth Olsen talked with AICN about her upcoming roles in Godzilla and Avengers: Age of Ultron. In both films she co-stars opposite Aaron Taylor-Johnson. She spoke about her characters and how they relate to the film’s stories.
Olsen revealed that a Godzilla trailer should be arriving soon (Yay). Here’s what she had to say about her character in Godzilla:
“It’s Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s film, but the ensemble, we all are somehow connected to Aaron’s character,” she said, “He’s the root, and I play his wife and I’m the person who holds down the San Francisco prospective of it all. I’m a nurse and I work trying take care of this chaos. ‘Godzilla’ is just so deserving of a good American remake, and I really hope we did it and I really feel like we did.”
Elizabeth Olsen is also playing Scarlet Witch in Joss Whedon’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. Here is what she had to say about her character:
“She’s nuts, she’s crazy. She has more things wrong with her than any character I’ve ever played. She can tell you where an object has been, she can tell you what your future is, she can connect with the dead and people from other universes, and she’s the only person in this universe who’s capable of doing that. She’s unbelievable; it’s so cool. I grew up loving ‘Star Wars’ and ‘Lord of the Rings,’ and anything that has this other type of world or universe to it is so fun.”
Hopefully Godzilla is as epic as it can be. There is no way it can be as bad as the last US remake about the giant monster. We shall see when it arrives in theaters on May 16, 2014. With Whedon behind the lens, Avengers: Age of Ultron will definitely be a hit when it arrives on May 1, 2015.
