Scarlett Johansson Wants to Star in Iron Man Spin-Off

Posted by Adam

Scarlett JohanssonScarlett Johansson loved starring in her upcoming new flick Iron Man 2 — she’s keeping her fingers crossed producers will ask her to come back in the role in a spin-off movie!

The actress — who plays the Black Widow in the Marvel action adventure — loved high-kicking her way on to the big screen in her first action-girl role.

“I hope I get to come back and do it again,” she says. “The character certainly comes back. We see that she does in the comics and certainly she is a part of The Avengers.

“I don’t know if that is where it’s going to go but she is definitely a big part of The Avengers and she has many different incarnations and different storylines so I’m hoping she will be able to continue in that way.

“I’m hoping that if the fans like the character and support the character, we’ll see her again.”

Iron Man 2 — which also stars Robert Downey Jr. and Samuel L. Jackson — hits theaters May 2010.

Johansson, 24, recently revealed that she didn’t want to become a role model.

“I always thought you reached icon status after you left this world,” she said. “I never signed up to be a role model as such.

“Of course, ever since I was a little girl I had an idea of what I wanted to do — which was to pursue my dream of being a successful actor.”
