Elizabeth Olsen may be the most honest woman in Hollywood—or, at least, the Marvel Universe.
You see, Olsen was recently tasked with completing Vanity Fair‘s lie detector test, and her answers were refreshingly off the cuff. Unlike Andrew Garfield, who lied to everyone about appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home, I actually believe Olsen when she says she doesn’t know John Krasinski—an actor whom she shared a scene with in her latest film, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
“I’ve never met him,” she said confidently, despite the interviewer pointing out their obvious connection. “I’ve never met him,” she repeated. “I’ve never met that man. I’ve met his wife.” The lie detector declared her truthful.

Though it’s possible this video was taped prior to the film’s release and Olsen was attempting to pull a Garfield, many on Twitter are pointing out that Krasinski and Olsen may have filmed their scene separately.
Another reason I’m inclined to believe Elizabeth Olsen is that she doesn’t pretend to be besties with all her coworkers, an unfortunate Hollywood trend. In the same video the WandaVision star has no problem admitting that she’s no longer very close friends with Chris Evans. It all started when Olsen revealed she was not in an Avengers group chat and no longer took part in a Fantasy Football league with other members of the cast.

After it was established that Olsen had never even met Krasinsky, the interviewer moved on to her question about Evans. Please enjoy the following exchange:
Vanity Fair: You’ve said you and this man, Chris Evans, are very close friends.
Elizabeth Olsen: We were. We lived very close to each other and during that time we hung out a lot. I still like him, but I don’t, like, hang out with him anymore.
VF: You don’t like hanging out with him anymore?
Olsen: No, I just like—no, it’s not that I don’t like hanging out with him anymore. I was doing it more in an L.A. way. I don’t, like, still hang out with him. I was doing it more as a Valley kid. But um, yeah, he has a great laugh, so it makes you feel better about yourself when you tell a joke.
VF: Would you say you were BFFs?Olsen: Never, but we were friends…I mean, we’re friends. I don’t know why I’m acting like he’s dead. We’re friends but, like, we just don’t hang out anymore.
Chris Evans, if you’re reading this, you should probably give Olsen a call!
