Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen. Filmography of the twin sisters

Twins always attract attention, even if they are not celebrities. What can we say about the stars of cinema and music. Among Hollywood celebrities, a special place is occupied by Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen, the filmography of which has only 19 films. And many of them failed at the box office. Having one fate for two, the sisters are actively engaged in producing and designing clothes. All this gives them the opportunity not only to live comfortably, but to be among the richest twins in the world. But their acting career started trite.

One debut for two

For the first time on the screen, Olsen's sisters appeared in 1987 in the popular TV series "The Full House". They were then only 9 months old, they played the same role - little girls Michel Tanner. Ashley was more tearful, and therefore on the big plans, Mary Kate was mostly filmed. True, the creators of the series did not want to disclose this fact, and therefore in the credits they were listed as Mary-Kate Ashley Olsen. Only in the last season the audience was discovered the truth. The shooting of the series continued until 1995, during which time the sisters managed to grow up (they were 8 years old) and become real stars of cinema and television. However, the first series with the sisters Olsen is still considered one of the best of their work in the history of their filming.

Roles in the cinema

But the first film debut was held only in 1992 in the family comedy "Hide, Grandma, We're Going." According to the plot of this tape, twin girls go independently to stay with their grandmother. They think in this way to save Mom from the hassle, but it turns out all the opposite. Despite the simple plot and predictable finale of such a film, the comedy is popular to this day.

The second significant film of the Olsen sisters was the popular comedy "Two: I and My Shadow", published in 1995. And at the box office it turned out to be a failure, but the video tapes with it simply disappeared from the shelves of specialized stores. And to this day it is on this comedy that many people recognize Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen, whose filmography has since been replenished with other tapes.

In general, all subsequent work in the movies and series of sisters are similar to each other. They played mostly twins or themselves. Plots of such sitcoms are predictable and understandable, and therefore critics often assessed the acting skills of Ashley and Mary Kate is not high. But in the 90s and early 2000s they were real teen idols. The last film in which you can see the sisters together was the film "The Moments of New York." It was released in 2004.

Brand "Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen"

By the end of filming in the TV series "The Full House", the twin sisters were very popular in the United States. Realizing this, the girls' father acted very farsightedly and founded his own production company "Dualstar", owned by the sisters Olsen. Thus, at the age of 6, Ashley and Mary-Kate became the youngest producers. From that day their names became a real brand, which was actively sold. And the films, where the Olsen sisters are filmed, are not the only source of income.

So, in different years twins under their own name produced clothing lines for the mass market. Although the icons of style, they can hardly claim. Fashion critics then scold them for their appearance, then they praise, calling their style "street chic." They actively cooperate with the shops "Wal-Mart", where not only the collection of Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen was successfully sold. The filmography of the sisters will soon have fewer films than the number of lines of clothing and accessories they have developed.

In addition, once in 2 months, a magazine appears bearing their name. And the company "Mattel" from 2000 to 2005 produced doll copies of the sisters Olsen. All this in total allowed them to enter the list of the 100 richest women in the world.

Personal life

Despite the fact that literally from the birth of the sister are in the mind of the press, they manage to hide the details of their personal lives. In different years there were rumors of their relationship with various celebrities. So, Mary-Kate is credited with a novel with Heath Ledger, and Ashley - a relationship with Johnny Depp and Gerard Leto. However, the actress herself refuses to comment on this matter.

In addition, in the second half of the 2000s, when films with Olsen's sisters were already being forgotten , new scandals with Mary-Kate and Ashley arose one after another. So, in 2006, Ashley was accused of using illegal drugs. However, it was not possible to prove this, as a result, she won the process, she was paid compensation of $ 40 million. Mary Kate at this time fell under the sights of the press because of her excessive leanness, she even was treated for anorexia in a rehabilitation center in Utah.

Conclusion

Today, Olsen's sisters are not removed, focusing on the design and production career. Also, 27-year-old millionaires still do not plan to acquire a large family or even to marry in the near future. Why wait for the admirers of star sisters Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen? The filmography of these twins may be supplemented with new star roles. However, it is possible that they left a film career forever.
