Scarlett Johansson on becoming more comfortable with herself and why it would be “reductive” to politicise her directorial debut

Scarlett Johansson believes this movie has strong potential for commercial success, and with good reason. Over her 30-year career, her films have earned over $15 billion worldwide. While her role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – from ‘Iron Man 2’ through ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ – is a major factor, she also helped revive the ‘Jurassic World’ franchise this year with ‘Rebirth,’ which earned $868 million. Johansson clearly has a good sense of what audiences will enjoy.
