Do I hear you're a huge superfan?'" Johansson recalled. "I said, 'It is actually true. I'm confirming. I'm a huge superfan.'" said Scarlett as quoted by Variety.
Johansson now leads "Jurassic World Rebirth" as Zora Bennet, a former mercenary now leading a group of scientists on a mission to retrieve dinosaur blood that could lead to the cure for heart disease as per Variety.
