The Oscar-nominated actor jokingly recalled pleading: “I’ll die in the first five minutes! I can get eaten by whatever! I’ll do the craft service!”
Scarlett Johansson has, after careful consideration, decided to endorse the park.
After confirming her casting Monday in the upcoming fourth installment of the “Jurassic World” franchise, the Oscar-nominated actor revealed that it was something she’s petitioned for for more than a decade.
“I’ve been trying to get into this franchise in any possible way for over 10 years,” Johansson told ComicBook.com. “I’m like, ‘I’ll die in the first five minutes! I can get eaten by whatever! I’ll do the craft service!’ I’ll do anything for it.”
“The fact that it’s happened … is actually unbelievable,” she continued. “I can’t believe it.”
Johansson will follow in the footsteps of a long line of female actors whose characters barely managed to survive the treacherous park, including Laura Dern and Julianne Moore, who starred in the first two “Jurassic” films directed by Steven Spielberg.
