Scarlett Johansson has always been enthusiastic about her portrayal of the Black Widow in Marvel's
Iron Man 2. Recently she delved into the details of what drew her to take the role:
"What do I like about the character? Everything. Her fabulous outfit. Her wonderful hair. Everything," said Johansson.
"The character does a lot of hand-to-hand combat, it's a sort of defensive style of fighting because she's small." Much like the other cast members of
Iron Man 2, ScarJo felt that the ambiance on set resembled more of a small studio picture than a big budget endeavor.
"I thought it would be a little bit daunting, especially because I came into the project as a huge fan of the first movie," she explained. "I think roughly 80 per cent of the crew was back from the first one so it had a real familial feeling and even though the project seemed larger than life and sort of epic, it's got a sort of small kind of communal feeling on the set. I attribute that to Jon [Favreau] and Robert [Downey Jr.] and Marvel. They are dedicated to sort of keeping it all in the family, which I really appreciate. So it was nice." The biggest question that fans have is whether we will see more of the Russian super spy if future Marvel projects; particularly The Avengers:
"I hope it will happen. I don't know if that's where it's going go but she's definitely a big part of the Avengers," she said. "I think that Marvel is very much invested in these characters just as much as the fans are, just as much as I am. You want the fans to like the character, you want them to believe in the character, root for them, and want to see them again." "So I'm hoping that if the fans support the character, that we'll see her again." Here are three photos just released by Marvel.com: MPP - I feel like I've seen these photos before, maybe they weren't officially released. Either way, Marvel says they are new so enjoy!
