Elizabeth Olsen

Elizabeth Olsen says that her Scarlet Witch costume is not like what she wears in the comic books.

Olsen is one of the new additions to the cast list for The Avengers: Age of Ultron, and says her costume is more for 'somebody today'.

Speaking to Total Film, the actress said: "I don’t think Joss ever would have hired me, honestly, if he wanted me to wear those outfits; I am not a professional athlete and nor am I a model.

"Wearing those costumes wouldn’t be fun for anyone who wasn’t those things.

"He already had a different idea. It respects and involves the comic book character but it’s different, more rooted. It’s for someone today.

"Well, if someone walked around wearing what she wore in the comics, people would stop and say, ‘What the hell' she thinks she’s a superhero!’"

Age of Ultron will introduce us to Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver in the Marvel movies for the first time with this second Avengers film.

The Avengers: Age of Ultron will come three years after the billion dollar success of Avengers Asemble.

Filming has got underway on The Avengers: Age of Ultron and will be released 1st May 2015.
