al life, adding that she has “made a career out of being second choice”. In an interview with Parade, the Avengers actress looked back at her career, reports a website. “Since a very young age, I’ve been rejected constantly … the best call you can receive is after you are rejected for something and then you get it. You appreciate it more. I’ve basically made a career out of being second choice,” she added. Johansson became a household name with her role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but she wasn’t originally cast in the role.
