Scarlett Johansson is featured in a now older Summer 2010 campaign for Mango. The collection is called “Summer Light” and is ScarJo’s fourth soiree with photographer Mario Sorrenti for the Spanish fashion retailer Mango.
I will try to post all of the Scarlett Johansson for Mango galleries. They are really lovely fashion photography.
Noomi Rapace
Noomi Rapace, the new Swedish actress who starred as Lisbeth Salander in Stieg Larsson’s Millenium trilogy movies (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest), has also been cast in two 2011 movies, an unnamed Sherlock Holmes sequel, and a Ridley Scott Alien prequel. For sure, she’s the hottest thing to come from the cold north Europe and burst onto the international movie scene in a very long time!
An interesting quote from the actress:
“I’m interested in the darker aspects of mankind, that which is not easy or well balanced. The cracks.”
