She’s seen her career make giant strides over the past twelve months, and Elizabeth Olsen was chosen to cover the March 2012 issue of ASOS magazine.
The 22-year-old actress posed for a delightfully artsy Todd Cole shot spread located in Brooklyn Botanic Garden while speaking with the publication about misconceived thoughts about her upbringing, openness to mainstream movies, and famous siblings, Mary-Kate and Ashley.
Highlights from Miss Olsen’s interview are as follows. For more, be sure to check out ASOS!
On the special year she’s experienced:
“It’s been a whole year of firsts for everything. It’s weird to look back on, but as it was all happening, it didn’t feel like I was being put under the microscope. But it’s so cool, [Sundance] suddenly puts you in a certain category with other actors, who you have always thought, ‘Oh, I wish I could have done that part.’ That’s a whole new thing. I loved ‘An Education,’ or even Maggie Gyllenhaal in ‘Secretary’. Those were movies that helped give an actor leeway into the world.”
On people’s misconstrued ideas about her childhood:
“People have a weird idea of my upbringing… I did lead a very charmed life growing up, but I was aware of the things that were abnormal. The only time I flew first-class as a kid was when my sisters did these cruises called ‘Sail With The Stars’. They were the main event, so the company would fly us first-class. Other than that, never.”
On if she can see herself doing something more mainstream:
“I would love to. I’m not trying to be different! I’d just rather do roles that are interesting to me. That will probably change when I have kids and a mortgage. But I had a teacher once, who is an actress, and she said, ‘You can hate me or love me, as long as you have an opinion’ and I think that’s great/ Who wants to have their work just be passive or safe?”
On if she spends a lot of time with her sisters:
“Between their schedules and mine, it’s not like we have tons of time to hang out. But when we do, it’s so much fun. Mary-Kate and Ashley have celebrated my birthday with me every year since I’ve been in New York, my last four birthdays, and it’s been so special.”

Stepping out for a glitzy Italian soiree, Cate Blanchett was all dressed up for the Maison Louis Vuitton Roma Etoile Opening Party in Rome on Friday night (January 27).
The “Curious Case of Benjamin Button” beauty worked the arrivals area alongside fellow guests such as Catherine Deneuve, Margareth Made, Kanika Kapoor, Natalia Vodianova and Tamara Falco before heading inside for cocktails and conversation.
The Maison Louis Vuitton appearance comes as Miss Blanchett and Andrew Upton have caused a bit of a debacle due to their announcement that they’re stepping down as co-artistic directors of the Sydney Theatre Company at the end of the 2013 season.
After running a column claiming that the theater company’s board of directors was unpleased with the couple’s tenure, the Sydney Theatre Company has since denied any such situation – instead issuing a statement saying, “The reality is that the board asked Cate and Andrew to stay on after their current term ends in 2013.”
The refutal of the Herald’s story added, “As they announced at the launch of the 2012 season, it was always their intention to only stay for two terms. We asked Cate and Andrew to stay on but we respect their decisions to leave in two years time to pursue other professional interests.”
