When Scarlett Johansson was hired by means of Woody Allen for the skin "Match Point" in 2005, she was a last-minute replacement.
Now Johansson is Allen’s leading lady of choice, following in the footsteps of Louise Lasser, Diane Keaton and Mia Farrow.
The actress stars in her third Allen movie, "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," set in motion to be released Friday. And her role as Cristina is nothing short of anticipated — mostly because of buzz about her steamy love scenes with co-stars Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz.
In the talking picture, Johansson and actress Rebecca Hall play, respectively, Cristina and Vicky. The two spend a summer vacationing in Spain where they meet a passionate artist (Bardem) and his slightly crazy ex-wife (Cruz). The derive pleasure triangle that results is classic Woody Allen.
"[The movie is] about how hard it is to reveal love in the world, and how many traps and pitfalls there are," Allen said. "And how many problems we make for ourselves."
