Elizabeth Olsen says she's 'aware' Mary-Kate and Ashley affected her career

Elizabeth Olsen has made a name for herself as a good actress in Hollywood, independent of her mega-famous sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

But the 32 year old acknowledges the "nepotism" that went into her being a successful actor.

"Nepotism is a thing and I'm very aware of it," the WandaVision star told Grazia. "And of course, I've always wanted to do it alone."

Mary-Kate and Ashely stepped away from acting just as Elizabeth began making a name for herself. The twins haven't starred in anything together since New York Minute in 2004, while Elizabeth is best known for her work in Marvel's Avengers in the last five years.

She's previously spoken about how much she learned a lot from them as she started out in the business.

"There are always ways you can be private — my sisters are intimately private and I respect that," she said. "They showed me that you can be private, but also accessible to journalists, for those reasons," she told Harper's Bazaar in an April 2018 profile. "It's helpful that I learnt my value system from them."

The former child stars have shied away from the media since exiting their very public teenage years. While they pose on the occasional red carpet, the twins rarely give interviews.
