10 Actors You Didn't Know Have Retired
4. The Olsen Twins
As of this writing, Elizabeth Olsen is absolutely killing it on Disney+ as one of the headline duo of WandaVision. Since coming to the fore in 2011 with Martha Marcy May Marlene, Olsen has amassed quite the array of impressive credits with roles in Silent House, Godzilla, the Oldboy remake and as the allude-to Wanda Maximoff in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Before Elizabeth came around, though, there were two other Olsens who were garnering all kinds of attention: Mary-Kate and Ashley.
Three years Elizabeth's seniors, these twins were everywhere at one point in time. The Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley, Full House, So Little Time, Two of a Kind and even The Simpsons were just some of the places where you could find this duo taking centre-stage.
2004 saw Mary-Kate and Ashley begin to delve into the fashion world, which was yet another bold venture for the two after setting up their own Dualstar production company in the '90s. Subsequently, that year saw Ashley quietly retire from acting - although Mary-Kate would continue in the industry until a formal retirement announcement in 2012.
In 2015, Netflix acquired the rights to the entire library of Olsen Twins content. While no figure for this purchase has ever been made public, Mary-Kate and Ashley likely made quite the pretty penny from that deal.
