During the Comic-Con 2009 panel discussion for Iron Man 2 in San Diego, Scarlett Johansson, along with her co-stars Robert Downey Jr., Don Cheadle, and Sam Rockwell, spoke to the audience. Notably absent was Gwyneth Paltrow, who was also not featured on the cover of Entertainment Weekly. When a fan asked Johansson how she landed the role of Black Widow, she humorously replied that she did some knee bends and lunges. For the event, Johansson wore a cream cotton cocktail dress by Dolce Gabbana and completed the look with Christian Louboutin’s “Bridget Strass” peep-toe booties.
