LOS ANGELES - US actress Scarlett Johansson has given birth to a baby girl, her spokesman said Thursday. The 29-year-old, whose latest movie ‘Lucy’ by director Luc Besson came out in July, was in good health with baby Rose, her first child.
‘Mother and daughter are doing well,’ said a statement cited by US media, and confirmed to AFP by spokesman Marcel Pariseau. The couple announced last September that they were engaged, two and a half years after the ‘Avengers’ star split from first husband Ryan Reynolds. Johansson has been nominated four times for Golden Globes, including for her breakout turn in ‘Lost in Translation’ with Bill Murray in 2004 as well as in ‘Girl with a Pearl Earring’ the same year.
In 2005 she was shortlisted for ‘A Love Song for Bobby Long,’ followed by a nod for her role in Woody Allen’s ‘Match Point’ in 2006.
