Marvel star Elizabeth Olsen says she "doesn't mean to pick" movies about grief since WandaVision, but thinks her new afterlife rom-com Eternity offers something different: "This felt more about a continued life"

Elizabeth Olsen, Miles Teller, and Callum Turner as Joan, Larry, and Luke in Eternity.

If we had a penny for every time Elizabeth Olsen played a widow trying to navigate her grief in a fantastical setting in the last five years… Well, we'd have two pennies. After playing a grieving Scarlet Witch in WandaVision on Disney Plus (and again in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness), Olsen is tackling love and loss again in new rom-com Eternity.

She plays Joan, a woman faced with an impossible choice in the afterlife, but Olsen tells GamesRadar+ that she didn't "consciously think of" any similarities between the two characters when we sit down with her and Teller in London to discuss the movie. "I also don't even mean to pick projects that are about grief, and I did all of them for different reasons," she says.
