Elizabeth Olsen sat down with Entertainment Weekly and talked about the hardest part of working with Marvel Studios. She said:
“It is definitely what I work around. The thing that’s been a little hard for me is I would really love to do a four-week independent film, like where there’s a beginning and an end,” Olsen began. “With Sorry For Your Loss, even though I have loved that experience…Being a producer on that show, that’s also like a 10-month job. So, between Marvel and that, it’s been really hard to schedule in the little art films that I would love to be finding time to do. But, I literally don’t have time to do them. So, there is a piece of me that’s really missing that. And there’s a piece of me that really wants to get back into theater.”
