Scarlett Johansson is a well-known actress, but many might not know that she almost lost a lot of her roles, as she was “rejected constantly,” ever since she started acting, and she feels like she “basically made a career out of being second choice.”
In her interview with Parade, Scarlett revealed that she almost didn’t get the role of Black Widow, as it was initially set to be played by Emily Blint.
The Oscar-nominated actress started off with small roles, and recalls: “Since a very young age, I’ve been rejected constantly. The best call you can receive is after you are rejected for something, and then you get it,” she says.
