In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, she talked about the struggle of bringing the comic book suit to the Marvel series. She said that she was “so excited” about it.

Olsen described the suit as "kind of a gypsy thing" that has to be worn with a headband. She stated that she “fought” to feature the costume. She stated that she had told the makers that they have to go full into it and it was like the “greatest” thing. The actor asserted that if Paul Bettany as Vision is wearing a comic-accurate costume, then she is doing it, too.
