Johansson will join a star-studded list of previous recipients that includes Eddy Murphy, Bette Midler, Jodie Foster, Samuel L. Jackson, and Charlize Theron, among others. Director Spike Lee was the most recent honoree, receiving the award for 2020 at a virtual presentation back in January.

American Cinematheque board chair Rick Nicita said in a statement that Johansson’s career “embodies the essence of the American Cinematheque Award” while adding that “her immense talent has shone brightly from her movie debut as a child through her emergence as a megastar of blockbusters.”
Scarlett Johansson made her acting debut at 10 years old in the 1994 comedy-drama North and has since established herself as one of the brightest talents of her generation. She has been both a critics-darling and a big box office draw, starring in independent and less-prominent movies as well as blockbuster hits.
Johansson’s most prominent works include Lost in Translation, for which she received BAFTA award as Best Actress in a Leading Role in 2003, Girl with a Pearl Earring, The Prestige, Marriage Story, and Jojo Rabbit. She is best known to the wider audience as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

]]>A stand-alone film for Black Widow has been in the works for quite a while, but the picture seems to be finally taking shape.
Scarlett Johansson will, of course, star as the titular character, whose real name is Natasha Romanoff. The film is expected to explore her origins as a Russian spy.
Johansson will now be joined by Rachel Weisz, David Harbour, and Florence Pugh.
Marvel has remained quiet on which roles the newly-added trio will be playing, but it is possible that The Favourite actress and Stranger Things star could take on the position of villains. The Fighting with My Family actress is believed to be playing another spy.
Cate Shortland of Berlin Syndrome will be directing Black Widow, which has no release date as yet.

]]>The post Scarlett Johansson is the Highest Paid Actress in Hollywood appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Johansson has snagged the top spot on Forbes’ list of the world’s highest-paid actresses of 2018 thanks to her portrayal of the Marvel character, Black Widow. According to the site, the 33-year-old actress quadrupled her 2017 earnings, raking in the big bucks for her participation in the Avengers film.
Earning $40.5 million from June 1, 2017, to June 1, 2018, means that the actress nearly doubled Stone’s top mark of $26 million last year.
Coming in at no. 2 is Angelina Jolie with $28 million with Jennifer Aniston following with $19.5 million. Jennifer Lawrence landed the fourth spot with $18 million and rounding out the opening five is Reese Witherspoon with $16.5 million.
Also featured on the top list are Mila Kunis ($16 million), Julia Roberts ($13 million), Cate Blanchett ($12.5 million) and Melissa McCarthy ($12 million) claiming spots six to nine and newcomer Gal Gadot claiming No. 10 with $10 million.
Emma Stone who helmed the list last year is notably absent from the list.

]]>The post Scarlett Johansson Withdraws from “Rub & Tug” appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Earlier this month, the Avengers: Infinity War actress was cast in the forthcoming film, Rub & Tug, which tells the story of transgender male, Dante “Tex” Gill, who was a crime kingpin who used his massage parlor as a front for prostitution in the ’70s and ’80s.
The casting of Scarlett in the role drew condemnation from various transgender groups who wondered why a female actress had been selected to play the part when transgender actors and actresses are present in Hollywood.
Trace Lysette, known for Transparent, wrote on Twitter: “Oh word?? So you can continue to play us but we can’t play Y’all?”
Oh word?? So you can continue to play us but we can’t play y’all? Hollywood is so fucked… I wouldn’t be as upset if I was getting in the same rooms as Jennifer Lawrence and Scarlett for cis roles, but we know that’s not the case. A mess. https://t.co/s8gBlBI1Sw
— Trace Lysette (@tracelysette) July 4, 2018
While Sense8 actress, Jamie Clayton, tweeted: “Actors who are trans never even get to audition FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN ROLES OF TRANS CHARACTERS.”
Actors who are trans never even get to audition FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN ROLES OF TRANS CHARACTERS. THATS THE REAL ISSUE. WE CANT EVEN GET IN THE ROOM. Cast actors WHO ARE TRANS as NON TRANS CHARACTERS. I DARE YOU #RupertSanders @NewRegency #ScarlettJohansson https://t.co/RkrW8MeGcG
— Jamie Clayton (@MsJamieClayton) July 4, 2018
At the time, a representative for Scarlett said, “Tell them that they can be directed to Jeffrey Tambor, Jared Leto, and Felicity Huffman’s reps for comment,” in reference to other actors who have played trans characters.
The 33-year-old has now withdrawn from the Rupert Sanders-helmed project, telling Out Magazine, “While I would have loved the opportunity to bring Dante’s story and transition to life, I understand why many feel he should be portrayed by a transgender person, and I am thankful that this casting debate, albeit controversial, has sparked a larger conversation about diversity and representation in film. I believe that all artists should be considered equally and fairly.”

]]>The post Cast of “Avengers: Infinity War” Reads Mean Tweets in a Hilarious “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Video appeared first on TheDailyDay.
]]>Twitter users decided to really have it at the Avengers‘ stars, with one of them comparing Anthony Mackie (Falcon) to “a bug with buck teeth,” and other saying that Sebastian Stan (Winter Soldier) “looks like a potato.” Benedict Cumberbatch also got the taste of Twitter’s rudeness, since @Notorious_MAX wrote that the Doctor Strange star “always looks like he’s had an allergic reaction to bad shrimp.”
Twitter delivered when it was time for Captain America as well.
“Perhaps Chris Evans is in truth a great actor, but he plays Captain America like a big dumb hunk of s—,” @obstinatepupper wrote, and Evans found it so entertaining that he barely could finish the tweet.
Tom Hiddleston, Scarlett Johansson, Winston Duke, Elizabeth Olsen, Don Cheadle, Dave Bautista, Tom Holland, Samuel L. Jackson, Paul Rudd, Karen Gillan, Paul Bettany, Chadwick Boseman, and Chris Pratt also took part in the video.
