There is some new things with The Spirit that have recently debuted. For starters we have the final theatrical poster, a new TV spot and the official site updated with some things and I added this stuff to the gallery. Riikka also scanned the Christmas Total Film special as promised.
And last night during Entertainment Tonight they showed a condensed new trailer for He’s Just Not That Into You which featured a couple of brief new shots of Scarlett. Lastly I have added temporary scans from Allure by ‘kroqjock’. There is only photos here, but I’ll pick up the magazine when it’s available here and make full article scans and all.

“I run a very lucrative operation and I’m great eye candy.”
– Silken Floss
Mega promotion is really getting started for The Spirit due out December 25, 2008. First off, we have a new Christmas themed trailer. Next up, Miss Silken Floss graces the cover of Wizard #206 (December). It’s a gorgeous new promo image. Lastly, MTV debuted a new show called Spoilers tonight which had a featurette about the film’s women. If you’re a US resident, you can watch the entire first episode via this link. You may also watch a longer cut of the featurette which features more of the Spirit’s ladies after the cut. There was a lot of new Scarlett scenes and even an interview. I will make caps of this tomorrow.
Scarlett talks about The Spirit in issue 149 of Total Film magazine, on sale this Friday. I will be sure to pick up a copy for us. Meanwhile, here’s a preview:
Scarlett Johansson will return to the big screen next month, and this time she’ll be sexier than ever.
The Lost In Translation actress will play the baddie’s sidekick Silken Floss in the film adaptation of comic book The Spirit – a role which director Frank Miller included in the film just for Scarlett.
“Well, she’s a doctor or a nurse, really, but yes, she’s very sexy. Frank really allowed that to develop. Very forward and sexy in a 1940s way,” Scarlett told Empire magazine [Total Film?].
She added that the dialogue, comprising of witty one-liners, made her character even sexier.
“That was so much fun. I mean the dialogue was great. Only Frank could write this stuff… Forget about obscene – it’s worse than that because it’s so clever!”
But Scarlett said her character wasn’t just a bad girl.
“Like a lot of the characters, she’s kind of in a grey area. They’re not really good and they’re not really bad, you know? They’re products of their environment, I think,” she said.

My friend Mycah sent in hires scans of Scarlett’s new CosmoGirl spread, which I have added in the gallery. I wish to thank again Amy Lynn for the preview scans. Roberto also scanned the Italian magazine Primissima for our viewing pleasure. It features a new still from Vicky Cristina Barcelona. I have also added various random pics in the gallery these past few days, including a new still from Not That Into You and yet another new poster for The Spirit.

Scarlett Johansson is involved in two new, important campaigns.
Scarlett and The Spirit co-star Eva Mendes will be featured in a series of PSAs to encourage cell phone recycling. The celebrity pair are building awareness for this cause in hopes of lowering CO2 emissions by limiting the energy needed to create new phones.
Environmental Media Association and Lionsgate teamed up for the cell phone recycling campaign in conjunction with the December 25th release The Spirit, which stars both Scarlett and Eva.
To learn how you can recycle your cell phone, please visit Answer-the-Call.net.

Scarlett is also part of In My Name, a project of the Global Call for Action Against Poverty, delivered with the support of Comic Relief, Oxfam International and Save the Children. Other celebs who collaborate in this cause are Wyclef Jean, Annie Lennox, Queen Rania Al Abdullah, Mischa Barton and many others. Please visit InMyName.com for further details.
It never gets tiring to report on Scarlett’s involvement in all of these amazing campaigns. It is things like these that make me proud to be a fan.

I’ve updated the gallery with a couple of new stills from Vicky Cristina Barcelona and a new one from The Spirit, which comes from Entertainment Weekly’s August 29th issue, the fall movie preview special. Big thanks to our forum members and Mycah for their contributions!
The press archive has also been updated with four new articles.
“I would do craft service [movie catering] for Woody. I would do anything for him. He is so much fun to work with because, you know, we’re friends, and it’s like I come into work every day and you’re working with people that you love, and you know, we have almost a silent communication between us.”
“You know we’re going into this really intimate relationship, all three of us, and we all fell so easily into that pattern. Penelope and Javier are both the sweetest. Of course, every woman on the side is charmed by Javier. He’s so charismatic … and Penelope’s like this little firecracker. So the three of us just had such a wonderful time and really just enjoyed the scenes that we had together because we were able to improvise. We were able to really have an interesting dynamic between us.”
