she’s already got an impressive
filmography but imagine if these credits
were on the list welcome to
watchmojo.com the top ten movies that
could have starred Scarlett Johansson
it’s hard to pick really no it’s not
that
before we begin we publish new content
every day so be sure to subscribe to our
Channel and ring the bell to get
notified about our latest videos for
this list we’re looking at films for
which Scarlett Johansson auditioned was
considered or was rumored to be attached
to at some point amazing cast of
comedians yep and it was it was a blast
I mean it was we just immediately gelled
and just laughed and cry laughed
number 10 my week with marylin no little
girl should be told how pretty they are
this fantastic 2011 drama earned
Michelle Williams the Golden Globe for
Best Actress as well as a nod from the
Oscars and BAFTA and rightfully so as
the iconic silver screen icon and sex
symbol Williams absolutely shown turning
in a performance worthy of Monroe
herself and to think Scarlett Johansson
passed up the opportunity to do the same
in 2009 The Insider reported that ScarJo
was the directors top pick however as
Johansson told the press shortly after
the film’s release she never had any
interest in the role the actor had long
garnered comparisons to the late great
Monroe and she apparently didn’t want to
feed into that the people I love will
always leave me number 9
Mission Impossible 3 hello who could
have predicted that Tom Cruise’s mission
impossible franchise would spend three
decades undergo such a tonal evolution
or see so many big-name stars play a
role for the third film director JJ
Abrams took the film in a more serious
and gritty direction leaning into the
spy thriller aspects of the story while
still delivering on the action front the
film introduced to Lindsey Farris an IMF
hey let’s played by Keri Russell Ferris
wasn’t long for the franchise but she
certainly made an impression have things
played out differently and the film’s
development not been so troubled
Scarlett Johansson would have played
Ferris but she ultimately dropped out
number 8 the Kraft
[Music]
there’s something very bewitching about
this star which makes it easy to imagine
her playing a teenage practitioner of
magic arts in this 1996 supernatural
horror film though it received mixed
reviews at the time the craft did well
at the box office and has since become a
cult classic hailed through the
guardians of the watchtowers of the
south we nearly got a different version
of this movie however which would have
found Angelina Jolie Alicia Silverstone
or Scarlett Johansson in F Campbells
role funny enough Campbell reportedly
won the role because at the time she was
the most recognizable contender and to
think now Johansson is one of
Hollywood’s biggest names imagine a cult
classic ScarJo double feature of Ghost
World and the craft so bad it’s almost
good number seven The Great Gatsby I’m
certainly glad to see you again Carey
Mulligan did a great job as Daisy
Buchanan in Baz Luhrmann’s extravagant
retelling of this classic F scott
Fitzgerald novel with that being said
we’d have relished the opportunity to
see the phenomenal Leonardo DiCaprio
acting opposite Scarlett Johansson as
two of the biggest names in the industry
it’s kind of shocking that they’ve never
shared a scene together and this is to
our knowledge the closest they’ve ever
come insiders had told vulture that
Johansson was being heavily considered
for the role but a commitment to another
film made her unavailable in the end the
role went to Mulligan and Joe Henson
honored her prior commitment appearing
in We Bought a Zoo I’m talking to girls
is easy we’ll tell you everything
secret to talking is listening number 6
gravity and I have a bad feeling about
this mission
every actor should be so lucky as to
work with the great Alfonso Cuaron and
with gravity Johansson very nearly did
Sandra Bullock’s performance as the
tenacious dr. Ryan stone is just about
flawless and rightfully earned her
numerous Award nominations but we still
would be interested in seeing a version
of the film with Scarlett Johansson the
role of stone is a demanding one but
also a great opportunity for an actor to
showcase their acting chops as the
entire film hinges on the performance
the thing is I’m still scared of course
Bullock wasn’t Johansson’s only
competition Carey Mulligan Blake
Lively’s Sienna Miller Mahone Katya
Olivia Wilde and Angelina Jolie were
number five name is a hablar my life
would be
[Music]
can scroll Johansson Singh you tell us
but seriously the answer is yes yes she
can and she should have this 2012
big-screen adaptation of the beloved
Musical and French novel upon which it’s
based
earned numerous awards among its wins
was an Academy Award for Anne Hathaway’s
performance as Fantine which just so
happens to be the role that Johansson
auditioned for though we have no trouble
imagining her owning the part apparently
the audition did not go as well as it
could have to use Johansson’s own words
she quote sang her little heart out but
she was fighting an uphill battle as she
had laryngitis at the time instead
number 4 Jumanji don’t be fooled that
isn’t thunder staying put would be a
blunder Scarlett Johansson’s talent for
acting has been evident from a young age
just watch mani and lo for which she
earned an Independent Spirit Award
nomination or the horse whisperer which
won her a young star award unfortunately
her talents hadn’t been fully recognized
before many and lo which means that she
failed to nab the part when she
auditioned for Jumanji no I tried to
she was just 9 years old at the time and
though we’re sure that she would have
done a great job in the role we have to
admit that the slightly older Kirsten
Dunst was probably a better fit also
little scar Joe didn’t seem overly
enthused by the role would you forget
about the stupid game now close it up
and put it away
what’s the microchips in there or
something
like an equation it was done to me was
monstrous and they created a monster
Natalie Portman had a tough role to play
in this adaptation of Alan Moore’s
iconic dystopian graphic novel and
critics were divided as to whether or
not she delivered Portman has proven
herself to be an incredible performer of
course and her turn as Evie did win her
a Saturn Award but some weren’t
convinced either way we would have been
very interested to see what Scarlett
Johansson could have done with the role
had she landed it what are you talking
about justice ScarJo auditioned
alongside the likes of Bryce Dallas
Howard and Keira Knightley for the part
and in hindsight considering the roles
they’ve all tackled since Johansson
might have been the best dick it was
like those black backs he raced them
from the face of the earth
I’m sorry no I’m sorry sorry I’m not a
stronger person number 2 The Parent Trap
twine there’s two of me I mean two of us
like mine Lindsay Lohan’s personal life
may have derailed her film career but
there’s no denying that her early
filmography is made up of some cherished
childhood and teen classics nostalgic
viewers don’t have many misgivings about
Lowen in The Parent Trap but if you’re
looking for a different star to play the
twins with less future baggage Scarlett
Johansson would have been a great choice
yes you want to know the difference
between us I have class and you don’t
The Parent Trap was released the seniors
The Horse Whisperer for which Johansson
received much praise including as
previously mentioned a young star award
just in case she hasn’t told you which
she probably hasn’t I don’t want to be a
part of this okay
in a 2017 interview she admitted to
still feeling a little bitter about not
having land at the duel part of Hallie
Parker and any James was the girl in the
Parent Trap right did you audition for
that yes you did did you go see The
Parent Trap with Lindsay Lohan no I did
not you know I started to get bitter at
that point did you really it was hard
for you yeah number one The Girl with
I’m sorry mr. cilenti hope you don’t
mind me asking for bimbos the last time
you ate of all the roles that Scarlett
Johansson nearly claimed but missed out
on this one feels like the most
significant one she’s already playing
about us in the MCU as natasha romanoff
also known as the Black Widow but we
would have relished the opportunity to
see her crank things up to an r-rated
level in a more gritty and grounded
franchise in 2011 The Hollywood Reporter
ran a story claiming that director David
Fincher thought she was too attractive
for the role of Lisbeth Salander
but ScarJo later refuted that claim when
the franchise got a soft reboot and
recast in 2017 her name came up again
but once more it went to someone else
