Scarlett Johansson opens up about difficulties she faced as a child actor due to her voice
In a recent appearance on tvN’s You Quiz on the Block, co-host Yoo Jae-suk enquired about the Marriage Story actress’s career as a child actor. Johannson explained, “People would ask, ‘Are you sick?’ because of my husky voice.”
Johansson explained that when she was younger, her voice sounded “rougher” than how it was currently. She shared that there were points in her adolescence when she wasn’t fond of her voice. The 40-year-old made it clear that her voice has now become her “strength.” To this, co-host Jo Se-ho asked her if she had a message for her younger self, “who disliked her voice.”
The Black Widow star turned towards the camera and replied, “You might think you have a strange husky voice.” She continued, “Thanks to that voice, you’ll win an award at the Rome Film Festival. There’s nothing to worry about.”
