Johansson’s Judy Garland dreams
October 7th, 2009 - 1:19 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Oct 7 (IANS) Actress Scarlett Johansson is keen to star in the next big musical in Hollywood because she dreamt of becoming the next Judy Garland when she was a child.
“When I was a kid, I started acting because I wanted to be in movie musicals and on Broadway. I took a lot of vocal lessons and I thought I was going to be Judy Garland or something. It’s always been my dream to do a movie musical. I always wanted to sing on camera,” contactmusic.com quoted her as saying.
She, however, denied rumours of starring in a Broadway show right now. But with the success of recent big screen musicals like “Chicago”, “Moulin Rouge” and “Dream Girls”, Johansson is confident that she will get a chance to fulfil her dream.
“I’m really excited that it’s sort of been revived. It’s nice that I maybe have a chance to do it.”
