“It’s not that I don’t Like hanging out with him anymore,” the Scarlet Witch actress said. “I was doing it in the more LA way. I don’t, like, still hang out with him. I was doing it more as a Valley kid.”

At the 2015 premiere Age of Ultron, Olsen outed Evans’ dance training while on the red carpet. “Aw, she’s out there saying that to everybody!” he told Marvel. “Alright, yes, I did grow up tap dancing. I can’t say I’m a tap dancer, but that’s what Lizzie is putting out there. Alright, I’ll take it. Why not? It makes me look cool, right?”
