Elizabeth Olsen, famed for her roles in Marvel's 'Avengers' series, will be starring alongside Julia Roberts in Warner Bros' upcoming thriller 'Panic Carefully', directed by Sam Esmail, Deadline reports. While plot details remain undisclosed, the film is described as a paranoid thriller echoing Esmail's critically acclaimed 'Mr. Robot'.

The project brings Esmail and Roberts back together after their successful collaboration on the apocalyptic thriller 'Leave the World Behind', which debuted on Netflix in 2023 and became the platform's fifth most-watched English-language film.

Her recent work includes appearing in the 2024 sci-fi thriller 'The Assessment', which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
