When Scarlett Johansson was only ten years old, she realized she loved playing and started a path that would make her one of Hollywood’s biggest stars.
She was born in 1984 and became famous very quickly. In 2018, she was the highest-paid actor.
Her recent part in “Avengers: Endgame” changed everything; the movie made over 2 billion dollars in just 11 days.
People often said how beautiful Johansson was, but she was criticized early on and was called a “mobile flower vase” in some projects.
But those reviewers didn’t see how talented she was as a child actor.
The movie “North,” directed by Rob Reiner and released in 1994, was Johansson’s first movie part. It showed off her natural charm and lively acting style.
In her next jobs, her beauty and talent continued to shine. In the 1999 kids’s comedy “My Brother the Pig,” Johansson played a young girl who is on a quest to break a magical curse.
Two years later, she captivated viewers in the “Ghost World” movie adaptation, which is now a cult classic even though it didn’t do very well at the box office.
Young people all over the world connected with Johansson’s portrayal of an 18-year-old with a unique style.
When she starred with Bill Murray in the highly acclaimed 2003 movie “Lost in Translation,” Johansson’s career took a big step forward.
As a recent college graduate in Tokyo who meets an older actor, her subtle facial emotions really came out.
She won the BAFTA Award for Best Actress for this role, which cemented her place as a leading lady in Hollywood.
Johansson wasn’t afraid to take on parts that were different from the norm. She shocked people by going completely naked in “Under the Skin,” and in “Ghost in the Shell,” she played the famous naked robot Motoko. These risky choices showed how flexible she was and how willing she was to take chances.
Throughout her career, Johansson has easily moved from parts that are hard to understand to ones that are full of action and adventure.
Some people think that, despite her success in hit movies, she might be more interested in making money than in more serious artistic projects.
On the other hand, her fans are still there for her and can’t wait for her next movie role.
