Scarlett Johansson has broken her silence on The Batman 2, with the one-time Marvel star revealing she found it hard to crack her mystery DC role.
“It gave me a lot of existential angst, for some reason,” Johansson said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
On finding her way into the character, she added, "It was very hard to figure out. I don’t know why, whether it was just the role or it was just where I am in my life, but it was just hard to crack it. That’s all I can say about it. It was a tough role in a lot of ways."
Right now, most of The Batman sequel is under lock and key. We know that director Matt Reeves had to depart the production, with Steven Soderbergh stepping in to complete Reeves's work.
Robert Pattinson returns as, too, does Jeffrey Wright as Jim Gordon, Andy Serkis as Alfred, and Colin Farrell as The Penguin.
Beyond that, there is still speculation around the identity of who the newcomers are playing. Alongside Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Charles Dance, and Brian Tyree Henry will be making their mark on Gotham.
Of that quartet, it appears Henry's role has surfaced. According to prosthetics spotted in the background of a makeup artist team's room, he could be playing Harvey Dent, AKA Two-Face. There's also been talk about Stan – who has shaved his head – portraying serial killer Victor Zsasz.
Johansson's words, though, don't yet enlighten us any further as to who she will be playing.
