Tony Winner Scarlett Johansson Sets Sights on the London Stage

Film darling Scarlett Johansson, who won a Tony Award for her role in the recent Broadway revival of A View From The Bridge, is aiming for a role on the London stage, according to the U.K.’s Daily Mail.

“It’s a plan I hold dear, but we have to come up with the right drama first,” Johansson told the paper. “It’s not going to happen soon, but it will happen."

Johansson's desire to return to the theater will come as no surprise to Broadway.com readers, as the young film star confessed in an earlier interview that she would love to have a stage career. The actress, who counts Iron Man 2, Lost in Translation, Vicky Cristina Barcelona and The Other Boleyn Girl among her many film credits, made her Broadway debut opposite Liev Schreiber in Arthur Miller’s A View From The Bridge in 2010, and won a Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play for her performance in the revival.
