Media empire sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have a younger sister who is on the verge of stepping out of their shadows.  Her name is Elizabeth Olsen and she is set to star in an independent film Martha Marcy May Marlene directed by Sean Durkin.

Martha is not Elizabeth’s first role in indie films as The Hollywood Reporter states that she recently wrapped filming for a movie called Peace, Love and Misunderstanding directed by Bruce Beresford.  This film’s cast also includes notables Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Catherine Keener, Chase Crawford and Jane Fonda.

In Martha Olsen portrays a young woman who is living with her sister after escaping from a cult.
