The Spirit star Scarlett Johansson was just interviewed by the LA Times. Here are some of the highlights:
On starring in three Woody Allen movies in the last few years and eager for more: “I would do Woody’s shoeshine. I’m lucky to be able to fit into that young-woman category in his mind, so I hope he keeps writing for young women. I think he will.”
On being excited about aging in the entertainment business: “I look forward to the opportunity that it will bring [to play rich, complex roles.] I feel like the hype that comes with being young in the industry will kind of dissipate and that there are some really good roles in my future. Then again, I say that as an actor who thinks every job is their last job…. I would love to be able to have a production company [some day] and encourage other directors and writers to follow their vision.”
On spending last summer planning a secret wedding to Ryan Reynolds: “It was my mission to have a moment of privacy, to do something for myself. I was happy with the results of that.”
Scarlett’s next film, He’s Just Not That Into You, is due out in February.
