Elizabeth Olsen is best known for her work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and she’s making it clear that she should never be the one doing the stunts.
The 34-year-old actress, who stars in the new HBO series Love and Death, appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Wednesday (April 19) in New York City.
Elizabeth talked about why doing her stunts for Marvel movies is a waste of time.
“Your stomach leaves you. It’s like, I guess, the joy people get on roller coasters, which I don’t get, but people love that feeling,” Elizabeth said when asked about doing stunts. “I’ve definitely recovered from my giddiness. Sometimes I’m just like, ‘Okay, how many more of these do you want? I can do this all day’ kind of thing. But sometimes I get a little freaked out.”
She added, “There is one in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness where I had to be dropped from 30 feet up and land. They wanted to drop me pretty quickly so that it looked like it had an impact, but I kept landing like Peter Pan, kind of like fencing? I was like, ‘Just use the double. This is so ridiculous — there is a double for a reason. Like, face replace…’ They do it all the time. And they used it.”
Elizabeth said she performed “most” of the stunts in the movie, but, “It’s a waste of everyone’s time because a stunt double does it so much better.”
