Scarlett Johansson, the highest-earning actress in Hollywood, had a challenging start to her acting career, just like any other young aspiring performer. The “Avengers” star was known for her beauty and talent from a young age, enduring numerous casting sessions in hopes of making it onto the big screen.

One of the most memorable stories from Johansson’s early career is her audition for the lovable twin role in “The Parent Trap,” which she was ultimately rejected for, with the part later going to Lindsay Lohan. However, this wasn’t the only casting setback for Scarlett Johansson in the 1990s.

Recently, a clip surfaced online showcasing Johansson at the age of 10, holding a script in her hands and attempting to impress casting directors with her natural and fluent delivery of lines.

Unfortunately, this audition also did not lead to success. The film Scarlett hoped to be a part of was “Jumanji” (1995), a story about a mystical board game. The role eventually went to Kirsten Dunst, known for her impressive performances in films like “Spider-Man” and “Melancholia.”

Despite these initial setbacks, Johansson soon landed a breakthrough role in Robert Redford’s film “The Horse Whisperer.” Five years later, she achieved further success with her acclaimed performance in “Lost In Translation.”

Scarlett Johansson has since been honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, recognizing her outstanding contributions to the global film industry. This journey from childhood auditions to Hollywood stardom is a testament to Johansson’s resilience, talent, and unwavering dedication to her craft.
