Elizabeth Olsen's Avengers 2 costume "respects" Scarlet Witch roots

Elizabeth Olsen has said that her Avengers: Age of Ultron costume "respects" the Scarlet Witch's comic book roots. The actress said that her costume would not be quite as revealing as the one traditionally portrayed by Marvel Comics. "We've done some costume stuff, yeah," she told Total Film. "My favourite piece is my secrecy cloak that prevents anyone from seeing what I'm wearing. There's a hood, and a robe - it protects the image. She continued: "I don't think Joss [Whedon] ever would have hired me, honestly, if he wanted me to wear those [comic book] 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... 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!'" Picture WENN
