The ‘Hitchcock’ scene that genuinely terrified Scarlett Johansson

 

Scarlett Johansson, a top-tier actor, is famous for Marvel and indie films. She worked with directors like Sofia Coppola and Wes Anderson.

In the late '90s, Johansson started in small roles. Her breakthrough was in Ghost World at 16. Lost in Translation with Bill Murray followed.

In the 21st century, Johansson became a Hollywood star. She starred in Match Point, The Island, and The Prestige. Iron Man 2 boosted her career further.

Hitchcock, a biopic, had Johansson as Janet Leigh. She shared a memorable shower scene with Anthony Hopkins. The filming was nerve-wracking, but Johansson faced it bravely.

Johansson spoke about the iconic shower scene. She praised Hopkins but admitted it was terrifying. The shoot lasted a day, and everyone was nervous about water.

The shower scene is a standout moment in horror cinema. Johansson, unconcerned about modesty, embraced the challenge. Janet Leigh, the character she played, was similarly fearless.
