Could Scarlett be set for a stage show?Could Scarlett Johansson be heading to Broadway to star in a musical version of her latest film The Nanny Diaries? Yes, if her movie co-star Donna Murphy has anything to do with it.
The pair apparently bonded on the set of the Mary Poppins-style film about a struggling babysitter in New York, and now have their hearts set on creating a stage version, reports the Daily Express.
Donna, 47, said: “There are references to Mary Poppins in the film and I’d really like to see The Nanny Diaries: The Musical. I hope they cast me in that!”
She added: “Scarlett and I love to sing and Harvey Weinstein [executive producer] wanted us to have a little duet. He would come on the set every once in a while and say ‘Can’t they do a little something? You know they both sing’.
“So Nanny Diaries: The Musical, why not? Mary Poppins is one of my favourite movies and my daughter loves it.”
