Elizabeth Olsen says she can't watch her Marvel movies at the premieres because she's worried they'll 'flop'

• Elizabeth Olsen said that she can't watch her Marvel films at the red-carpet premieres.
• The actress said that she's always concerned that the movies will turn out to be failures.

"Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" star Elizabeth Olsen said that she can't watch her films at the red-carpet premieres because of a fear of failure.

"I just decided that I can't watch these Marvel movies at a premiere anymore," Olsen, who stars as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), said during an appearance on NBC's "Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Wednesday.

The actress' comment was sparked by Fallon asking about her experience attending the world premiere of "Doctor Strange 2" in LA on Monday. Olsen said that she watches her projects, but not at the premieres.

"Every time I just watch it and I look around me and I'm like, 'Well, it's our first flop.' Like every time, I just think, 'It's our first flop,'" Olsen explained.

"I saw 'Avengers: Endgame' and I looked around me and said, 'Is it our first flop?' I was like, 'I don't know. I don't know about this one,'" Olsen said of the 2019 blockbuster ensemble movie, which surpassed $2 billion at the box office and became the second-highest-grossing movie of all time.

Olsen said that she didn't enjoy the overwhelming self-doubt, so she decided to skip the screening of "Doctor Strange 2" but will see the film "at some point."

"Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness," costarring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rachel McAdams, hits theaters on Thursday. Read Insider's review here.
