Elizabeth Olsen may not be a household name like her famous big sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, but she’s showing up all over the Hollywood radar with new film roles and an acting career on the rise. Look out, Olsen twins—there’s another Olsen sister in town.

The littlest Olsen sis has landed a starring role in the indie drama ‘Marcy Martha May Marlene,’ opposite Hugh Dancy. In the film, she plays a girl who escapes a dangerous cult and goes to live with her sister (not played by an Olsen twin—what a shame.) According to Reuters, it’s not Elizabeth Olsen’s first turn on the big screen; she appears in another indie, ‘Peace, Love and Understanding’ with some major Hollywood names—Chace Crawford, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Catherine Keener and ‘80s icon Jane Fonda.

Not bad, for a little known sibling most famous for being the namesake of Mary-Kate and Ashley’s high end clothing line, Elizabeth and James. So where has Elizabeth Olsen been hiding for most of her 21 years? Hidden beneath the double shadow of Mary-Kate and Ashley, no doubt. But since they have faded from the spotlight in recent years, maybe it’s time for another Olsen sister to rise to the top.
