‘I like to get down and dirty’

Johansson, who would be seen alongside Matt Damon in We Bought A Zoo admitted she is “up for every kind of challenge”.

“I like to get down and dirty. I really liked that aspect of Kelly (her character in the film), that she is a no-frills kind of girl, very grounded and practical, with that salt of the earth quality,” contactmusic.com quoted her as saying.

“That’s the body language I created for her too; she’s comfortable in her body and in her stance.”

However, the 27-year-old star revealed he has developed a “hard shell” in order to cope with the constant “batterings” she has suffered in the film industry.

Johansson added: “I learned at a really young age that you have to have something of a hard shell to take some of the batterings that you get in this industry. We’re constantly rejected and scrutinised and it’s important to take a lot of it with a pinch of salt in order to be able to survive and press on.”
