Scarlett Johansson glammed up to attend the glitzy New York premiere of The Phoenician Scheme, which was held at Jazz at Lincoln Center in Manhattan’s Columbus Circle on Wednesday.
The 40-year-old former child star slipped her phenomenal 5ft3in figure in a coral-colored strapless Saint Laurent gown as well as a lariat necklace and rings from Taffin Jewelry selected by stylist Kate Young.
Hairstylist David von Cannon finally let Scarlett’s highlighted wavy mane down rather than scraping it into a severe bun like usual.
Make-up artist Jian Qiao Lu brought out Johansson’s bushy brows and natural bee-stung pout with minimal cosmetics.
The two-time Oscar nominee has a small role as a deadpan ‘titan’ character only known as ‘Cousin’ in the espionage black comedy, which hits limited US theaters this Friday before a wider US/UK release on June 6.

Scarlett Johansson glammed up to attend the glitzy New York premiere of The Phoenician Scheme, which was held at Jazz at Lincoln Center in Manhattan’s Columbus Circle on Wednesday
Scarlett dutifully posed with The Phoenician Scheme filmmaker Wes Anderson and castmates Scott Shepherd, F. Murray Abraham, Hope Davis, Bryan Cranston, Mia Threapleton, Benicio del Toro, Steve Park, Michael Cera, and Tom Hanks.
‘It was so great because I got to dip in for, you know, like a short period of time, reunite with some friends, meet new friends and castmates, and get, like, into Wes’ world,’ Johansson told Extra on Wednesday.
‘You know, these guys had been working so hard — Michael, Benicio, Mia — for, like, months, and then I just got to come in and have fun and then I was like, “Alright, see you guys later!”‘
The Phoenician Scheme currently has a ‘certified fresh’ 76% critic approval rating (out of 90 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes.
The Outset co-founder seemed especially chummy with Hanks, dressed in an all-black suit, who portrays Leland in the absurdist father-daughter flick.
Meanwhile, Cranston’s silly red carpet antics certainly amused Scarlett as she posed with Abraham and Threapleton.
Johansson is still riding the high of her six-minute standing ovation for her feature directorial debut Eleanor the Great during the May 20th Cannes Film Festival premiere.
The indie drama stars 95-year-old June Squibb as 90-year-old Eleanor Morgenstein, who moves back to New York City from Florida following the death of her best friend of 70 years.
Wayfarer Studios co-founders Steve Sarowitz and Justin Baldoni are credited as executive producers on Eleanor the Great, and they ‘were super supportive throughout the process.’
Wayfarer Studios CEO Jamey Heath – who’s also an executive producer – was at Cannes supporting Scarlett alongside the rest of his crew.
