In her films, Scarlett Johansson has all types of marital problems
Photo: Shutterstock, Warner Bros. Pictures, Everett Collection Scarlett Johansson is the star of this year’s big, beautiful divorce movie, Marriage Story, which is up for six Golden Globes this Sunday. One of those is a nomination for Johansson, who plays Nicole, an actress and the eventual ex-wife of Adam Driver’s Charlie, a New York theater director.
In her films, Johansson has all types of marital problems. She has been a divorced person; someone contemplating divorce; someone whose character allows another character to process their divorce. She’s a favorite of filmmakers who — perhaps hoping for some catharsis — address their own separations by making a movie about it.
Where have we seen this before? Let me tell you: Spike Jonze’s Her, which is about a lonely writer who is sad about his divorce. He buys an AI program named Samantha that he falls in love with. Samantha helps drag our hero out of his depression and accept his separation, and then disappears from the plot. Her is an autobiographical project by Jonze, about — you got it — his divorce, a headline-grabbing split from Sofia Coppola that happened a decade earlier.
