About Elizabeth Olsen
Elizabeth Olsen is an American actress and younger sister of twins and former teen TV and film stars, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. The actress was born in Sherman Oaks California to parents, Jarnette and David Olsen, and has an older brother Trent, as well as two half-siblings.
Elizabeth began acting the age of four, co-starring in her sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley’s productions, and is most notably known for her roles in the Avenger movies. Her big break came in 2011, in the film, Martha Marcy May Marlene, where she played Martha, a character returning home after fleeing her life in a cult. Olsen, along with the movie, were critically acclaimed.
The American actress was nominated for the BAFTA “Rising Star Award” in 2013, for her part in the remake of the Korean film, Oldboy. The same year saw Olsen take the leading role in the erotic thriller, In Secret, before entering the world of movie monsters, playing Elle Brody in Godzilla. From monster mayhem to marvelous Marvel, in 2015, Olsen took on her first Avengers movie, playing the character of Scarlett Witch in Avengers Age of Ultron, and Captain America Civil War, saw her return as Scarlett Witch, in 2016.
Olsen notched up three more films in 2017, before getting back to comic book capers as Scarlett Witch again, in the next Avengers movie, Infinity Wars. The sequel, Avengers End Game was released in 2018. She may be overshadowed financially by her sisters, who have net worths that dwarfs her total earnings. However, Elizabeth has shown no jealousy, has a carefree attitude and has said, “you want everyone to succeed in your family.”
She was a frequent visitor to the sets of her sister’s productions when she was younger, which gave her firsthand experience acting. It “wasn’t weird” having famous sisters she has said, “it was just normal.” Elizabeth’s breakthrough movie, Martha Marcy May Marlene, had a budget of only $600,000 yet grossed $5.4 million. How much the actress got paid is unknown, but it certainly wasn’t as much as the reported $5 million earned from her role as Scarlett Witch, in the Avengers movie, Infinity war. However, that movie grossed over $2 billion.
