Scarlett Johansson on ‘Ghost In The Shell’
Dubbed as the highest-grossing actress of all time, we’ve seen Scarlett Johansson dressed from hot spy, wife of scientist, and even being an omnipotent being (not to mention that she will be reprising her ‘Black Widow’ role in the next Marvel franchise), and definitely she totally nailed all of it, dropped the avid fans, movie lovers jaws, no doubt her next stop as a human-cyborg hybrid would definitely as sleek as her other roles.
But what helps the actress to do well on her new project was her training on her Marvel movies, Johansson said. Black Widow is clad with its unique fighting skills and known for her distinct agility, this helps Johansson to adapt on another similarly agile warrior role.
“I did a lot of training, just because I wanted to be able to have the physical presence of someone who is entirely capable. And then, of course, I had to actually be kind of capable. Luckily I have had a lot of fight training and weapons training for all those little Marvel movies, so it actually comes in quite handy because it builds this vocabulary. And then did I lot of, you know, a lot of repetition and then a lot of tactical training, which I’d never done before – with room clearing and all that stuff, to just be as efficient with the weapons as possible,” Johansson said.
