Elizabeth Olsen & Carrie Coon Play Sisters In His Three Daughters, After Wanda Brutally Killed Proxima Midnight In Infinity War
Avengers: Infinity War and His Three Daughters are total opposites in genre and scale
Although they have both appeared in two very different movies, Carrie Coon and Elizabeth Olsen’s first onscreen collaboration was inAvengers: Infinity War. However, it was much more than just a mutual appearance, as Coon’s CGI-animated villain character Proxima Midnight was graphically killed by Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch during the climactic battle at the end of the blockbuster. Olsen’sWanda saved Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow by using telekinesis to lift Proxima Midnightinto the air, where she collided with a passing armored vehicle known as a Thresher.
I’m Convinced An MCU Actor Just Confirmed A Major Fantastic Four: First Steps Casting Theory
The Fantastic Four: First Steps is well into production, and a new update has me convinced that one major casting theory will turn out to be true.
InHis Three Daughters, Olsen’s Christina and Coon’s Katie aren’t quite at the point of killing each other but do have a great deal of conflict that fuels much of the tension between them. Adding Lyonne’s Rachel to the mix makes for even more disagreements and harsh words that hit home in revealing and painful ways.WhileAvengers: Infinity Waris one of the biggest blockbusters ever made,His Three Daughterscould not be more of an opposite movie, filming mostly in one location and having a cast of just nine actors, most of them in supporting roles.
The True Story Behind Proxima Midnight’s MCU Death Makes Carrie Coon & Elizabeth Olsen’s Reunion Even Better
The fact thatCarrie Coon had no idea who killed her inAvengers: Infinity Warwhen she was filming that scene makes their reunion inHis Three Daughtersmore meaningful and, in a way, hilarious. Both Coon and Olsen found out together during theHis Three Daughterspress tour that Olsen killed Coon’s MCU character (viaFacebook). The clip also features Lyonne asking Olsen and Coon for advice about entering the MCU during theHis Three Daughterspress tour. Olsen told Lyonne, “You’re very capable of figuring it out yourself.”
