Scarlett Johansson Says She and Adam Driver Were 'Brutally Screaming' at Each Other for New Film
Scarlett Johansson is opening up about her upcoming film with Adam Driver.
The actress, 34, graces the cover of As If magazine’s latest issue and spoke about the untitled Noah Baumbach film in which she and Driver, 35, play Nicole and Charlie, a couple in the middle of a divorce who struggle with their anger toward each other.
“I did a job with Adam Driver recently which is coming out later this year,” she said via Entertainment Tonight Canada. “We spent two entire days screaming at each other, brutally screaming and fighting for two full days.”
“It was exhausting, but if I didn’t have as strong an actor as Adam to take all the stuff I was giving him I would have been lost,” Johansson said. “For me, working with other actors is a really important part of what I do … it’s everything.”
Johansson’s new film is one of her first after wrapping up her arc as Black Widow in this year’s Avengers: Endgame. While the actress is set to star in a solo Black Widow film, it’s unclear how that project will tell the story of the master assassin and spy as she was killed off in Endgame.
The actress is also working on Sing 2 and Jojo Rabbit, a war drama in which a young boy in Hitler’s army finds out his mother is hiding a Jewish girl in their home.
