'Martha Marcy May Marlene' star Elizabeth Olsen says she was initially unsure about pursuing her acting dreams as the actress was worried about the lack of privacy which comes with fame.
The 'Godzilla' star, 25, said the life of her older twin sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen completely changed after fame as they began to be followed by photographers wherever they went, reported Contactmusic.
"Seeing what happened with my sisters always being followed around made me question whether this was what I wanted to do with my life. But it was always my choice," Olsen said.
"I was lucky to have an amazing drama teacher who encouraged me to pursue my dream. I love acting so much that I decided the trade-off would be worth it," she added.
