WandaVision star Elizabeth Olsen revealed that she had to improvise a pivotal scene in Avengers: Infinity War along with costar Paul Bettany, per Variety. Released in 2018, movie had shocked fans when many of lead characters were ‘blipped’ into nothingness, which also included Olsen’s character.

However, WandaVision star shared in an in-depth interview for Variety’s Power of Women issue that they had to figure out scene on spot.

“I just get my pages, so I understand part of story I’m fulfilling. I get a story that is told to me from Russos about what’s happening in rest of movie. And it isn’t in script that everyone gets blipped,” shared Olsen.

Actress went on to elaborate that production was very strict with script details leaking so they had security guards with actors, while they were reading it.

“We called it ‘The Wedding’ on schedule. But I didn’t know I got blipped away until we shot it. That was told to us that day,” she explained. “We were all just in this van and they said, ‘This is what’s happening. You guys will disappear.’ And we’re like, ‘OK.’ It was shocking. I mean, we didn’t know. We thought movie ended differently.”

Olsen added that it was ‘embarrassing’ to shoot scenes because of green-screen work. “We did some improvising, which is hard to improvise those moments.

“But it also felt good because at that point, Paul [Bettany] and I really had each other’s back. It was one of last things we shot. I felt really comfortable with him as an actor if we had to improvise that beat a little bit. We were trying to find it, with Russos guiding us. And then, once it was over, it was a huge amount of relief. –Agencies
