Scarlett Johansson believes she was over-sexualized by the studios early in her career.
“I think everyone thought I was older and [playing] a long time.
I got stuck in this weird hypersexualization,” the actress recalled during a stint on Dax Shepard's
Armchair Expert
podcast .
So much so that she thought her career was "over", certain that she would henceforth subscribe to a type of role that she had not chosen.
"I attributed that a lot to the fact that people thought I was much, much older than I was," she added.
A Hollywood straitjacket which she had a terrible time getting rid of when she wanted to give a new turn to her career in her mid-twenties.
Until the moment when she realized that this cataloging didn't matter that much anymore.
A smoother look
"It kind of stopped being something desirable and something I was fighting against," Scarlett Johansson continued.
But to hear it, this changeover was not so much due to a change of look of Hollywood against him as on a more general level.
“Now I see younger actors in their twenties.
I feel like they are allowed to embody very different things, she remarked.
It is also another era.
We're less allowed to rank other actors, and luckily, aren't we?
People are much more fluid.
