Scarlett Johansson’s building a kick -ass reputation as an action movie chick. First as Marvel Studios Avenger ‘Black Widow’ and then as super-enhanced human Lucy, with a possible return in the sequel “Lucy 2 “.
*sidebar* The movie involves a young woman used as a drug mule for some nefarious company. An experimental drug leaks into her system and all kinds of mind-bending events happen, bad guys die , spectacular things happen, lots of action and explosions..typical Hollywood fare.
Director Luc Besson previously stated he wouldn’t make a sequel to ‘Lucy’ unless he thought of a god reason to….well I guess he has. Besson and EuropaCorp (sounds like a black market ring for body parts) have put the sequel to the international hit ($458 million ) action thriller on their list of upcoming projects, the announcement was made at the CineEurope 2015 festival. Scarlett may or may not be back for the sequel, since the movie ended with the character Lucy, reaching transcendence and becoming one the Universe.
I personally think Scarlett Johansson, would be perfect for and therefore, needs to star in a ‘Danger Girl’ movie franchise.
Though rumor has it Kate Beckinsale and Milla Jovovich are being looked at for roles in the movie along with Sofia Vergara…to whom I vehemently object to, for being to long in the tooth to be one of the leads.
Don’t you agree ?
