Elizabeth Olsen Prefers Life in the UK Over the US for Peace of Mind


Elizabeth Olsen has recently opened up about her decision to live in the UK rather than her native US. In an interview with The Observer, the 35-year-old actress revealed that she experiences a sense of calm every time she arrives in the UK, and she attributes this feeling to a significant concern she has about life back home.

Olsen, known for her role as Scarlet Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, expressed her worries about violence in the United States, particularly pointing to the country’s relaxed gun laws. “I got into central London last night, and this morning, the moment I stepped outside and had a coffee, I felt calm,” she shared.

She continued, “We’re always worried about random acts of violence in the United States without even really processing that. And I know there’s violence everywhere; not everywhere is perfect, but there's just a calm I feel here.”

As fans eagerly anticipate her return as Scarlet Witch, there’s still no word from either Olsen or Marvel about when she might appear next, especially with her potential comeback in the upcoming Vision series still shrouded in mystery.

For now, it seems that Elizabeth Olsen has found her peace across the pond, choosing a lifestyle that allows her to feel more secure and relaxed.
