Scarlett Johansson claims a recent interview she did was taken 'widely taken out of context.'
12:23 PM PDT, July 14, 2019is clearing the air after a recent article published quotes in which the A-lister proclaims she has the right to pursue any and all roles that interest her, despite"politically correct" casting.
"You know, as an actor I should be allowed to play any person, or any tree, or any animal because that is my job and the requirements of my job," Johansson explained to."I feel like it’s a trend in my business and it needs to happen for various social reasons, yet there are times it does get uncomfortable when it affects the art because I feel art should be free of restrictions.
Soon after her comments from the magazine were released, they caused a massive stir online."I will not be seeing any films that involves Scarlett Johansson moving forward. I do not want to give my money to someone who trivializes the oppression of trans people and diminishes the importance of our visibility," "Scarlett Johansson is right. She should be allowed to play any role.
She added: “I recognize that in reality, there is a widespread discrepancy amongst my industry that favors Caucasian, cis gendered actors and that not every actor has been given the same opportunities that I have been privileged to. I continue to support, and always have, diversity in every industry and will continue to fight for projects where everyone is included.”
The acclaimed 34-year-old found herself receiving immense pushback when she took the starring role in 2017’s
