A name synonymous with talent, grace and beauty, Scarlett Johansson has emerged as one of Hollywood's most versatile and sought-after actresses, as well as the industry's highest-grossing actor with a worldwide total gross of US$14.9 billion. Born on 22 November 1984 in Manhattan, New York City to a Danish architect father (Karsten Olaf Johansson) and an American mother (Melanie Sloan) a former producer and Johansson's manager, Johansson was named after the character Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With the Wind. Let us now take a look at the captivating journey that has taken Scarlett Ingrid Johansson from a young girl with dreams of becoming an actor to becoming an international superstar dominating the international box office.
EARLY LIFE
Growing up in a large household with three siblings (eldest brother Adrian, elder sister Vanessa and younger twin brother Hunter - she is older by three minutes! Johansson also has an older half-brother Christian who resides in Denmark), Johansson's parents played crucial roles in cultivating her creativity and shaping her early influences by exposing her to a world where art and culture thrived. This environment nurtured Johansson's innate curiosity, and an undeniable love for the arts and performance from a very young age. Even at the tender age of three, Johansson had already proclaimed to her mother: "I have a fire in my brain to act." She often put on song-and-dance routines for her family, and was particularly fond of musical theatre and jazz hands.
