There was a lot placed on how women looked,” Johansson explained. “What was offered at that time for women my age, as far as acting roles or opportunities, was much slimmer than it is now.” More than two decades later, the Jurassic World: Rebirth star is happy to see “much more empowering roles available” for young women now compared to when she was in her 20s, as it was “Slim Pickens” during her early days. “You would get really pigeon-holed and offered the same [roles].
