The actress stars as a bride-to-be amid a bitter legal battle following her marriage collapse to art curator Romain Dauriac
SHE has been described as “criminally 𝑠e𝑥y” – and directors just love putting her in those clinging latex superhero costumes.
But although Hollywood megastar Scarlett Johansson is keen to show she is more than just a 𝑠e𝑥 symbol, she is far from shy when it comes to talking about lust.

The Avengers, Iron Man and Captain America actress admits she does not believe in monogamy and recently said: “When women talk about enjoying 𝑠e𝑥, it’s almost forbidden.
“Just having a healthy attitude you’re labelled as loose, wild, a slut.
“You have no morals and you’re seen as some kind of 𝑠e𝑥ual deviant or someone who can’t be in a monogamous relationship.”

Scarlett, 32, who was the top-grossing movie star of past year, went through a second marriage breakdown in March when French art curator Romain Dauriac walked out on her.
Romain, 35, was said to be sick of following her to film sets with their two-year-old daughter Rose.
Her marriage to Canadian actor Ryan Reynolds crumbled in 2011, also down to her workload.
But Scarlett is bouncing back with a hot new man — Saturday Night Live comedian Colin Jost.
The pair held hands on a date this week after being spotted canoodling at a party in New York last month.

And her steamy new film Rough Night — about a wild hen weekend that descends into chaos after a male stripper is accidentally killed — has received rave reviews.
The role as bride-to-be Jess gives Scarlett a break from her frequent superhero costumes.
She told us: “I’ve noticed there is a propensity to put me in latex outfits. I can act outside of wearing a catsuit — it’s nice to show that.
“Getting into those outfits the first few times was a bit of an athletic feat.

“I probably lost ten pounds in water weight.
“In some ways it was great because they are like a thick sort of latex.
“For fighting and stuff you have a little layer of padding there so it hurts a little bit less to get the s**t kicked out of you.
“I think the first time I walked on set everybody was like, ‘Woah, that’s a body condom’.
“And then, as happens when you’re making a movie, two days later nobody cares.
“You are showing practically everything off and everybody is just like, ‘Ah whatever’.”
It might have been a tough emotional start to the year, but Scarlett insists: “I’m good. I’m happy with what I’ve got, I’m functioning on most cylinders.
“I could use another arm or two. That would be helpful.
“Having a child now, you think about the future in a different way. I try not to be as pessimistic.
“Everything is good because she’s around.”
Scarlett has also hit back at Romain’s claims she put her career first during their three-year marriage.
She said: “I am so proud to do what I love to do and to be able to show my daughter that and have her come to the workplace and show her I’m an independent woman.”

It is a familiar story for Scarlett, whose first marriage to Ryan also ended in divorce after three years — with her hectic filming schedule again being blamed.
She admitted at the time: “The logistics of being with another actor are challenging.
“If one person is more successful than the other that also proves challenging. I think the idea of marriage is very romantic, it’s a beautiful idea.
“And the practice of it can be a very beautiful thing.
“I don’t think it’s natural to be a monogamous person. I might be skewered for that, but I think it’s work. It’s a lot of work.”

During her relationship with Ryan, Scarlett sent him a series of naked photos, which were later hacked from her mobile and put online.
Florida hacker Christopher Chaney also targeted singer Christina Aguilera. He was arrested and sentenced to ten years in prison.
Despite the incident, Scarlett has no regrets about the raunchy snaps.
She said: “I know my best angles. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s not like I was shooting a porno.”
After her split from Ryan, Scarlett launched herself into a brief fling with bad boy actor Sean Penn, 56.
That fizzled out within a few months when he told her he did not want to be in a relationship.
Afterwards she said: “I never put a title on it really, but we were seeing each other. He’s a remarkable person. He really is.”
Like Sean, Scarlett enjoys a wild night out.

The actress has found new love in Saturday Night Live comedian Colin Jost
She jokingly told us: “If you don’t wake up with your face in a mound of cocaine, have you really had a proper night out?
“Luckily my growing up happened away from social media — the only thing that could get me caught was my mouth and I’ve worked out how to control that, more or less.”
After splitting with Sean, Scarlett dated ad executive Nate Naylor for a year. They split in October 2012.
Scarlett, who has also been linked to Lena Dunham’s boyfriend Jack Antonoff, her Black Dahlia co-star Josh Hartnett and actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt, met current boyfriend Colin, 34, when hosting Saturday Night Live earlier this year.
The US sketch show saw her impersonate Ivanka Trump alongside Alec Baldwin’s president Donald.
It reflected a topic close to her heart. She said: “I could imagine going into politics.

“I grew up in a family that was politically active and vocal.”
Turning to the last year’s US election, she said: “The majority of us were not planning on that result. It was pretty devastating.
“I’m like, you know, winter is coming for sure — but I think we can weather the storm.”
Despite her interest in politics, Scarlett does not see herself as a leader or someone to follow.
When a woman enjoys 𝑠e𝑥 why is she always labelled a slut?

She said: “I’m an actor not a politician. I don’t think about myself as being particularly a role model. I’m a woman who has had to work hard to get to where I am.
“I’ve taken a lot of risks without fear of failing and knowing that with a gain there’s a loss — and I’ve accepted that as a means to following my dream.
“I think that is an inspiring message. It’s not necessarily a requirement for me that a film I choose has a specific message.”
Scarlett first made the world sit up and take notice almost ten years ago when she shared a kiss with Penelope Cruz in Woody Allen’s 2008 film Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

The director described her as criminally 𝑠e𝑥y, talented and witty, and since then her career has gone from strength to strength.
But despite her movie success, Scarlett still bears the scars from those two failed marriages.
She said: “Of course it’s horrible. It really throws you. You think your life is going to be one way and then — for various reasons or whatever — it doesn’t work out.
“It’s a very lonely thing, like the loneliest thing you’ll ever do in some way. I don’t feel on the other side of it, but it gets better.
“More than anything, it’s just that not having your buddy around all the time is weird. There’s no rule book. I think it’s just time.”
While her heart heals, Scarlett is busy with lucrative modelling contracts for Calvin Klein, L’Oreal and Louis Vuitton.
She disputes any suggestions she has gone under the surgeon’s knife to maintain her looks.
But she does admit: “I believe in plastic surgery. I don’t want to be an old hag, there’s no fun in that.”
