Hollywood beauty Scarlett Johansson is to play Princess Diana in a film of her life. The 'Eight Legged Freaks' star, 23, is hotly tipped to take the lead role in director Michael Bay's film about the late princess' life.
A source said: "The buzzwords about the film are tasteful and non-sensational. Michael thinks Scarlett would be the perfect choice to play Diana as she is a very versatile actress."
Meanwhile, the actress is gearing up for the release of her debut album, 'Anywhere I Lay My Head'.
Only one of the tracks is an original composition, written by Tom Waits, while the other 10 are Scarlett's interpretations of some of Tom's most famous songs.
Johansson will release the 11 track LP through Atco Records on May 20.
Scarlett - who made the record in five, weeks last spring - at Louisiana's Dockside Studios - is no stranger to the music industry.
She appeared in the music video for Justin Timberlake's single 'What Goes Around Comes Around' in 2006, and sang backing vocals for the Jesus and Mary Chain at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April 2007.
