Elizabeth Olsen Says It Was A “Waste of Time” Doing Her Own Marvel Stunts

Elizabeth Olsen Says It Was A “Waste of Time” Doing Her Own Marvel Stunts

While we don’t know when, if ever, we will see Elizabeth Olsen reprise her role as Wanda Maximoff, we do know one thing about her return- she likely won’t be doing her own stunts.

In a recent interview on an episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the WandaVision star reminisced about her attempts at doing doing her own stunts for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

“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,” she said. “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.”

A “Waste of Time”

When asked by Colbert if she did every one of her characters stunt’s, Olsen was frank her in response.

“I didn’t do all of them, but I did most of them — which is a waste of everyone’s time, because a stunt double does it so much better.”

When specifically doing stunts attached to a wire, the actress admitted that she didn’t even enjoy the feeling of flying.

“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.”

In the end however, Multiverse of Madness director Sam Rami used Olsen’s “Peter Pan” landing in the film. Olsen however, couldn’t believe it.

“We’ve had so much technology, growth through these movies, and they just chose to really use me,” she added.
