Scarlett Johansson, born on November 22, 1984, in New York City, is a prominent American actress and singer, widely recognized for her versatility across genres, from indie dramas to superhero blockbusters. Known for her captivating performances, Johansson’s career spans over two decades, making her one of the most successful and highest-grossing actresses in Hollywood history. Her iconic role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), along with critically acclaimed performances in films like Lost in Translation, Marriage Story, and Jojo Rabbit, has solidified her as one of the most influential figures in contemporary cinema.
Johansson was raised in a creative household, with her father, Karsten Johansson, an architect originally from Denmark, and her mother, Melanie Sloan, a producer from a Jewish family in the Bronx. She has three siblings: an older sister, Vanessa, who also pursued acting, an older brother, Adrian, and a twin brother, Hunter. Early on, Johansson exhibited a natural inclination for the performing arts. Her interest in acting led her to audition at a young age, and she enrolled at the Professional Children’s School in Manhattan, an institution known for nurturing young talent.
Johansson’s acting career began with roles in off-Broadway plays and a few minor film appearances. Her first film role came at age nine in North (1994), but it was her performances in Manny & Lo (1996), The Horse Whisperer (1998), and Ghost World (2001) that started gaining her attention. In The Horse Whisperer, directed by Robert Redford, Johansson played a young girl dealing with trauma, a performance that earned critical praise and displayed a depth of talent beyond her years.
