'Apple Watch' Price, Release Date & Review: 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' Stars RDJ & Elizabeth Olsen Unimpressed? 'Looks Kinda Small'

While many try to get their hands on the new Apple Watch, two stars have openly admitted it's not for them.

With the new range of lifestyle watches being released by Apple, two "Avengers: Age of Ultron" stars has revealed they're not that interested in the new product. While Tony Stark or Iron Man may be all about technology, RDJ seems to prefer something more classic, not to mention, much more expensive.

Speaking to the Associated Press, it was noted by USA Today that the 50-year-old Marvel icon says he isn't interested in the device.
"Every time they make one of these announcements, you go 'that's the device that's going to enslave us."

He went on to continue: "I was just, like, looks kinda small. I like my watch. I like this Omega," and added: "I don't need another Apple product."

His co-star, Elizabeth Olsen who plays Scarlett Witch, has admitted that the Apple Watch isn't for her either. CNet reports that the younger sister of celebrities Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen didn't even know anything about the new wearable technology.

"That's so weird." Upon digesting the new information when it was explained to her, her reaction was, "That sounds so stupid. Have your phone be a phone and your watch be a watch."
