Scarlett Johansson along with Anne Hathaway, Ben Affleck and Jessica Alba will join forces with Netflix and Feeding America to Combat Hunger This Holiday Season. The stars will create original holiday themed artwork for use in Netflix Holiday Gift Program with proceeds going to feeding America for Hunger Relief.

Extending a partnership forged during last year’s holiday season, Netflix, Inc. the world’s largest online movie rental service, and Feeding America (formerly America’s Second Harvest), the nation’s largest hunger-relief organization, are joining forces on a holiday initiative that will raise awareness of and funds to combat the worsening hunger crisis in America.

The two organizations have created a unique campaign and have enlisted the support of Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson, Ben Affleck and Jessica Alba, who are also committed to the fight against hunger. Each has created holiday-themed artwork that will adorn Netflix gift subscriptions this holiday season, proceeds from which will be donated to Feeding America.

Here is a little blurb from Scarlett, courtesy of Cinema Blend.

In all the promotional materials for the film, Silken Floss has been showcased alongside all the other women in the story, suggesting the role played by Scarlett Johansson is a lead, along with Sand Saref (Eva Mendes) and Ellen Dolan (Sarah Paulson). But Silken started off as a minor role– until Johansson expressed interest.

Johansson told a story at Saturday’s press conference for The Spirit about meeting with Frank Miller about the movie, even though there weren’t really any parts for her in it. “At the end of it I was like ‘I’m sad there’s nothing for me to do!’ and he said ‘I’ll think of something.’ He decided to expand this character.” Johansson added with a smile, “I got super, super lucky.”

Below you can find a lot of new Scarlett videos. Most of these are from The Spirit promotion (European press tour, Le Grand Journal: La Boîte à questions) and there are also a few clips from the Nobel Peace Concert. I will be making caps of everything soon.

Scarlett was on The Today Show yesterday.

You can watch the video here and view some photos of Scarlett’s arrival at JustJared. Some more will be added to the gallery very soon as well as caps.

Scarlett Johansson has had quite an active year. She starred in a couple of movies, married actor Ryan Reynolds and even indulged her inner rock star by releasing an album. But don’t think that Johansson is done with the music business just yet, because she has plans for a follow-up.

Back in the spring, Johansson released a Tom Waits cover album, “Anywhere I Lay My Head”, and she promises it isn’t her last. “I would love to do another album,” she told MTV News while promoting The Spirit, the new film based on Will Eisner’s comic book.

She also revealed that this time around, she’d like to tackle some original material, perhaps inspired by married life — which she’s not a fan of talking about in interviews. But she said she’s going to have to wait, since she already has such a busy schedule.
