Scarlett: Woody Is Easy

Posted Jul 28th 2006 2:37PM by TMZ Staff

Scarlett Johansson: Click to watchEasy to work with, that is. According to Scarlett Johansson, the set of Woody Allen's new comedy "Scoop" was great. Says the starlet: "working with Woody is always easy because he likes to make his dinner reservations at, like, 7:30".

"Deadwood" star Ian McShane has his own story of Woody's no-fuss style. He tells of his audition- which basically amounted to a few minutes of talking about the weather, and then "The next day I got the script, 'would you like to do it?' I went back to England and said yes."

Woody's directed over 40 films, and he's over 70 years old. It makes sense that after putting up those kind of numbers, a director would just want things to be simple and easy.

1. Does anybody find her husky voice sexy??? It's so unfeminine, androdgynous and scary. Eck!

4.
Woody Allen has always been described as a retiring director, very taciturn with the actors (and crew, I guess) - warm, but very laid back (and perhaps snagging what he wants on the fly/flow perhaps).

Anyway, many actors say he doesn't give much direction - just knows how to cast the best, and let them co-create.

6. The headline "Woody is Easy"... I can't speak for all guys, but then I look at Scarlett Jonansson, truer words were never spoken.
