Scarlett Johansson was geeked out for ‘Iron Man’ role
April 26th, 2010 - 1:30 am ICT by IANSLondon, April 25 (IANS) Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson has revealed that she was so eager to land a role in “Iron Man 2″ that she absorbed herself in comic books to impress producers.
“I was a huge fan of the first movie and was quite ‘geek-ed’ out at being part of the second one. I just wanted to be a part of ‘Iron Man’ so I really researched the comic books and came in with some ideas of my own about how to develop the character. I see her as being determined and ambitious,” contactmusic.com quoted her as saying.
“I love everything about this character. She’s a total bada*s. I love every detail from her fabulous outfit to the wonderful hair. I mean, there’s nothing not to like about the character.
“She’s very bad and I think it’s rare that we get to see these sort of super heroines bought to the screen, where they’re really kicking some major a*s, which she does,” she added.
The 25-year-old actress landed the role of Russian spy Black Widow after actress Emily Blunt dropped out because of scheduling conflicts.
