Scarlett Johansson is one of 12 directors filming five minute shorts on the theme of encountering love in the five boroughs of New York City, which will be united into a feature-length production, similar to 2006’s Paris, je t’aime.

In May 2009, it was announced that Scarlett’s segment was removed from the theatrical version film.  There is no information about the possibility of it being a part of the DVD release.

In July 2009, Scarlett’s segment entitled These Vagabond Shoes will make it’s debut as part of the Los Angeles Shorts Festival.  This means that the film will now be eligible for an Academy Award nomination.

Scarlett Johansson’s Role

Scarlett Johansson will be making her debut both as a writer and director with a five minute short film starring Kevin Bacon.  The film, entitled These Vagabond Shoes, is about “The tranquility of solitude breaks through the cacophony of the city as a man makes his way across Manhattan to the sea at Coney Island – witnessing the majesty, magic and wonder of the city and its inhabitants, as they pass him by.”
