Scarlett Johansson isn’t new to the superhero genre, but her role in “The Batman: Part II” still proved to be its own challenge.

Johansson told “Entertainment Tonight” that her upcoming role in the Robert Pattinson-led feature, which hasn’t been revealed, pushed her outside her comfort zone and spurred “a lot of existential angst, for some reason.”

“It was very hard to figure out,” she told the outlet in an interview for her upcoming film “Paper Tiger.” “I don’t know why, whether it was just the role or it was just where I am in my life, but it was just hard to crack it. And that’s all I can say about it.”
