Scarlett Johansson on Broadway
By Tribute on May 9, 2012 | Leave a Comment
Scarlett Johansson may be hitting Broadway again. The Avengers star is up for a lead role of Maggie Pollitt in Tennessee Williams’ Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, the same role that made Elizabeth Taylor famous in 1958. “I’m close to making a deal on it. I cannot wait absolutely to get to it. I’m exhilarated, I’m terrified, but I think in a good way,” said Johansson in a recent interview. According to the L.A. Times, Scarlett’s leading man could be none other than her Avengers co-star Jeremy Renner, who’s in negotiations to play Brick, Maggie’s husband. If things go as planned, this will be her second appearance on stage. She first starred in A View from the Bridge in 2010, which won her a Tony Award for Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Play. ~Krystin Edgerton
