Johansson Details Hollywood's Evolving Roles for Women

News summary

Scarlett Johansson reflected on the evolution of women's roles in Hollywood, noting she was 'hypersexualized' and cast under the 'male gaze' early in her career, which she found objectifying. She intentionally rejected unfulfilling parts, risking irrelevance, to escape typecasting. Johansson credits industry shifts, including the rise of female role models and more women in positions of power, for the emergence of complex roles for women. She believes casting based on desirability is less common today and is optimistic for the next generation of actresses. Her patience and selectiveness led to both critical acting acclaim and a directorial debut. Johansson also highlighted that, despite progress, challenges in Hollywood’s representation of women remain.
