Strange announcement made during Vanity FairThe “Lie Detector Test” video series, in which the magazine engages celebrities with machinery and asks silly questions about their lives and careers in very serious voices.
During the video, Olsen is presented with a photo of Krasinski. In the film, he plays Reed Richards, a scientist and inventor known as Mr. Fantastic, who is believed to be the smartest man on Earth.

And although Olsen also said that Haim is a “very talented person and has a very cool vibe,” when asked if he thinks he is a better actor than Haim, Olsen responded with a laugh. expressed and said:
