Elizabeth Olsen's Childhood and Youth

Elizabeth Olsen is a talented actress born into a family with a banker father and ballerina mother. Six years after her birth, her parents divorced. She never wanted to follow in the footsteps of her famous twin sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, but she did dream of surpassing her older brother Trevor in everything.

Trevor was actually a huge comics fan and later helped his younger sister prepare for her pivotal role in the Captain America films. Lizzie herself was not familiar with these comic books, so she could not imagine how she would play the part of the Scarlet Witch. Thanks to her brother, it all came together – he actually gave her the most crucial advice.

Lizzie, for a long time, could not decide who she really wanted to become. While still a child, the girl starred in one movie («How the West Was Fun» in 1994), but then, after getting turned down by Robert Rodriguez, she put acting aside.

In 2004, the press actively poured mud on Mary-Kate and Ashley, almost daily publishing dirty rumors and publications in which the young actresses were given the most impartial epithets. After that, the twins made their final decision to leave film and focus on fashion, and Elizabeth, shocked by these events, fully supported her sisters and became disillusioned with the film industry. Perhaps that's why during her school years she went by the last name Chase so classmates wouldn't ask unnecessary questions, and teachers wouldn't probe about her famous sisters.

After this, she made the surprising decision to go to Moscow and enroll at the Moscow Art Theatre School. While there, Olsen studied all of Chekhov's plays, enjoyed her student years, and even had a whirlwind romance with a classmate. But these feelings could not endure the subsequent separation. As a result, Lizzie returned to her homeland, and the young man remained in Russia.

Elizabeth Olsen's Film Career

In 2011, after a 17-year break from acting, Elizabeth made her film debut. Her breakthrough role came in «Martha Marcy May Marlene». The film's premiere immediately caught the attention of major directors who were impressed by her compelling lead performance.

Elizabeth quickly followed up with three more films: the horror film «Silent House», the comedy «Peace, Love & Misunderstanding», and the drama «Liberal Arts». Soon after, «Red Lights» hit theaters, giving Elizabeth the chance to work alongside Robert de Niro and Sigourney Weaver.

In 2013, she appeared in the thriller «Oldboy» (American remake), the biopic «Kill Your Darlings» starring Daniel Radcliffe, and the comedy «Very Good Girls» alongside close friend Dakota Fanning.

She then appeared in two more projects: the drama «Kodachrome» and the comedy «Ingrid Goes West».

In May 2018, «Avengers: Infinity War» hit theaters, pitting the superhero team against the titan Thanos in his quest to collect all the Infinity Stones. Elizabeth's character formed a compelling partnership with Paul Bettany's Vision, setting up her return in the 2019 sequel.

Elizabeth Olsen's Personal Life

Early in her film career, the talented actress began dating actor and artist Boyd Holbrook. They met while filming the movie «Very Good Girls». By fall 2012, their whirlwind romance was making headlines. In spring 2014, news broke that the couple had gotten engaged. The actor, seven years Elizabeth's senior, reportedly wanted to control their relationship. His controlling behavior likely led to their engagement ending in winter 2015.

Since 2017, Elizabeth has been dating musician Robbie Arnett. After three years together, the couple got engaged. Elizabeth has also expressed her desire to start a family.
She shares one trait with her sisters – an incredible passion for fashion. However, their individual styles are completely different. While Lizzie once copied her sisters' sporty hoodies and long hair, she's now often seen with shorter hairstyles and a more feminine aesthetic.

Elizabeth has never followed strict diets or that lifestyle. The actress says she loves food too much to give up her favorite treats. Despite this, she maintains her great figure through regular exercise.

Elizabeth never had idols. She always found people who obsessively idolize celebrities strange. Over time, though, she made one exception – Michelle Pfeiffer. Pfeiffer was the one who inspired her return to acting.

Elizabeth Olsen continues to act in films. In 2021, "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" will premiere, with Elizabeth reprising her role as the Scarlet Witch. Production on the series "WandaVision" was also set to resume in July 2020.
