Actress Scarlett Johansson will make her Broadway debut starring in a revival of American playwright Arthur Miller’s drama A View from the Bridge, the show’s organizers said on Monday. Amid a growing trend of Hollywood stars appearing in Broadway plays, Johansson, 24, will appear on the Great White Way opposite actor Liev Schreiber in the drama set in 1950s America about a Brooklyn dockyard worker obsessed with his 17-year-old niece, to be played by Johansson. Previews will begin December 28 and the show will run for 14 weeks. Johansson’s list of films include The Horse Whisperer, Lost in Translation and Woody Allen’s Match Point in 2005. She also released an album this year with U.S. singer Pete Yorn. Schreiber has already appeared on Broadway several times, including winning a Tony award, as well as in films. Other high-profile film actor’s to have appeared on Broadway this year include Jude law, Hugh Jackman, Daniel Craig, Sienna Miller and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Strong ticket sales in the 2008/2009 Broadway season have been credited to the concentration of big name stars and Broadway producers have said it is now essential to have Hollywood stars to ensure big profits in plays on Broadway.

Keira Knightley has beaten Scarlett Johansson to land the part of Eliza Doolittle in a new film adaptation of My Fair Lady, it has emerged. Now the 24-year-old actress will be seen starring in the film which will be directed by Joe Wright. “Joe and Keira are looking forward to working together again immensely,” says a friend of the 37-year-old director. In August, it was reported that Knightley had been forced to compete with Johansson, 24, for the role of the Cockney flower seller played by Audrey Hepburn in the 1964 film, reports The Telegraph. “I have two actresses as potential Elizas, one British, the other American,” said Sir Cameron Mackintosh, who is producing the film with Duncan Kenworthy, at the time. “You’d know their names, but I’m not letting on,” he added. Recently, Kenworthy said: “I think Keira would be absolutely fabulous in it.” Emma Thompson is writing the film’s script, for which Daniel Craig has been mooted as a possible Professor Henry Higgins.

Singer/songwriter Pete Yorn had no idea Scarlett Johansson could sing when he asked her to be part of his latest musical project – and feels like he struck gold. Yorn confesses he dreamed up a collaboration with Johansson after listening to Serge Gainsbourg’s 1960s recordings with Brigitte Bardot, and he admits he was more interested in his music partner’s sexual allure than her singing abilities when he got in touch with her back in 2006. He says, “It (her singing) wouldn’t have mattered. It was more about her presence and attitude. But I got lucky that she has an amazing voice… she picked up everything really fast.” Johansson made her music debut last year with an album of Tom Waits covers, entitled Anywhere I Lay My Head. Yorn and Johansson’s new album, Break Up, has been critically acclaimed.

Scarlett Johansson is putting off plans to appear on Broadway – because she suffers from “crippling” stage fright. The actress admits treading the boards in New York is a dream of hers, but she has to overcome a phobia of performing live first. The stagefright is made all the more surprising because Johansson happily appeared in numerous plays as a child actress. She tells America’s Glamour magazine, “I would love to work on Broadway, but I don’t know that it would manifest itself in musical theatre… I have terrible stage fright that I’d have to get over. (It is) crippling. Not as a kid. It came on when I was a teenager, and I think it somehow sticks with you.”

Scarlett Johansson is calling on Hollywood bosses to cast her in the next big movie musical – confessing her childhood dream was to be the next Judy Garland. The stunning star was recently forced to deny rumours she’s set to star in a forthcoming Broadway show – but Johansson admits she would love to take on an all singing, all dancing role, either on stage or screen. The actress tells Spinner.com, “When I was a kid, I started acting because I wanted to be in movie musicals and on Broadway. I took a lot of vocal lessons and I thought I was going to be Judy Garland or something. “It’s always been my dream to do a movie musical. I always wanted to sing on camera.” And with the success of recent big screen musicals Chicago, Moulin Rouge and Dreamgirls, the 24 year old is confident she’ll get the chance to show off all her talents: ‘I’m really excited that it’s sort of been revived. It’s nice that I maybe have a chance to do it.”
