Scarlett Johansson Once Defended Her N*de Scenes Showcasing Breasts & Pubic Hair In ‘Under The Skin’ & Said, “We Couldn’t Capture What We Needed Unless…”

Scarlett Johansson has never been shy about pushing the envelope in her acting career.

From her role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to her performance in Under The Skin, the actress has showcased her versatility time and time again.

However, it was her full-frontal n^de scenes in the latter that caused quite a stir among audiences.

Nevertheless, Johansson defended her decision to do so with the most logical response.

While Johansson understood the need for partial n^dty in Ghost In The Shell, it was Jonathan Glazer’s directorial Under The Skin that saw her go all out.

Despite the film becoming a box office failure, Johansson’s sensuous scenes remain quite vivid in the minds of viewers.

During an interview with Yahoo!

Movies, Johansson spoke at length about her role in Under The Skin and defended her decision of going completely n^ked on screen.

She explained, “I’m a pretty private person.

It’s not like I want to be displaying myself all over the place… But I think I realized that through the process of just letting go, and allowing myself as the character to be totally present in the moment, and making the discovery of my own self, as [my character] does… I realized what kind of judgment I place on myself, and how self-conscious I am about all different kinds of things.”

Johansson went on to say that it wasn’t just the nudity, but many different situations where she had to let go of her inhibitions and be free of herself in order to capture the necessary emotions and actions of the character.

She found the experience to be very liberating as she discovered how much judgment she places on herself and how self-conscious she is about various things.

Keeping in mind her character, Johansson was conscious that she didn’t look s**y in the frame.

“She was a totally different species, so her n^dty was kind of practical.

I also had black hair.

That was my idea — I didn’t think I should be a blonde sort of bombshell.

n^ked, but not too s**y,” Johansson added.

Despite the practicality of her n^dty in the film, audiences found her n^dty to be quite alluring.

However, Johansson’s decision to go fully n^de was primarily driven by the need to capture the essence of the character she was portraying.

Johansson’s willingness to go all out and embrace her character’s n^dty is a testament to her dedication as an actress.

Her performance in Under The Skin showcased the lengths she is willing to go to bring authenticity to her roles.

In conclusion, Scarlett Johansson’s attitude towards her n^dty in Under The Skin was one of practicality and dedication to her craft.

By allowing herself to be free of judgment and self-consciousness, Johansson gave a stellar performance that will stay with viewers for a long time.

Her decision to embrace the n^dty necessary for the role demonstrates her great acting abilities and her commitment to bringing authenticity to each of her performances.
