Despite being pregnant for the first time, Scarlett Johansson remains active and keeps up with her promotional duties for her latest film Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
On Monday, the talented 29-year-old actress made an appearance in Beijing, China with her fellow actors Chris Evans and Samuel L Jackson. She was donning a beautiful peplum dress designed by Antonio Berardi that did a remarkable job of concealing her blossoming pregnancy.
Scarlett, who is currently expecting, looked stunning and radiant as she greeted fans during the Beijing premiere. Her outfit, a beautiful Antonio Berardi dress, cleverly disguised her growing bump. Her hair was styled in soft caramel highlights and pulled back, with a touch of sparkle added by elegant silver drop earrings. Scarlett seemed thrilled to be in the Chinese capital and waved to the waiting crowds with enthusiasm.
Scarlett Johansson, the popular 29-year-old actress, is set to tie the knot with Romain Dauriac, who owns an independent advertising agency. The French journalist proposed with a vintage Art Deco diamond engagement ring over six months ago. Scarlett has played the fan-favorite Black Widow character in four movies of The Avengers franchise. In terms of romantic relationships, Scarlett’s past has been somewhat tumultuous. She dated Josh Harnett, her co-star in Black Dahlia, for two years before meeting and marrying Ryan Reynolds. Unfortunately, they divorced in 2011 just three years after getting married.
Scarlett found herself between her fellow co-stars, Samuel L Jackson and Chris Evans, at the Beijing premiere of Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The crowd was massive and eager to catch a glimpse of the big stars in little China. Scarlett has played the role of Black Widow in various Marvel movies, starting with The Avengers in 2012, followed by this year’s release of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron next year. During the London press conference for the latest Captain America movie, Scarlett shared that she felt “forever wounded” due to the injuries she sustained from performing intense action scenes throughout her career.
In her third time donning the sleek Black Widow catsuit, Scarlett Johansson confessed to experiencing bumps and bruises from her first portrayal as the ex-KGB agent in Iron Man 2. She shared that she continues to feel the effects of old injuries, which keep getting aggravated as she takes on more physically demanding roles. Despite the inherent dangers, Johansson prefers to do her own stunts and delights in comparing “battle wounds” with her male colleagues. She acknowledged that it’s all part of the process and enjoys the thrill and challenge of it all.
According to Scarlet Johansson, as one sustains more injuries over time, the pain lingers longer. Despite this, she prefers to perform as much stunt work as possible, even if it comes with a bit of risk. Rather than handing off the scenes to the stunt team, she would rather have some battle wounds and compare bruises. However, since she is now a mum-to-be, she will likely reduce her own involvement in stunt work and leave it to the professionals.
