Amy Adams’ teen daughter Aviana sparks wild Scarlett Johansson lookalike comparisons at Cape Fear premiere

The internet did a double take and honestly, can you blame them? Hollywood actor Amy Adams stepped out for the Cape Fear premiere in Los Angeles this week with a very special plus-one, her 15-year-old daughter, Aviana Olea Le Gallo.

Amy Adams’ daughter looks so much like Scarlett Johansson. Aviana Olea Le Gallo steps into the spotlight Born in 2010 to Amy Adams and her husband Darren Le Gallo, the couple married in 2015 after nearly a decade together, Aviana has largely stayed out of the spotlight.

Scarlett Johansson debuts as a director in Cannes with a comic tale of grief and empathy | Hollywood

CANNES, France — Scarlett Johansson’s directorial debut, “Eleanor the Great,” stars June Squibb as a 94-year-old woman who, out of grief and loneliness, does a terrible thing. Scarlett Johansson debuts as a director in Cannes with a comic tale of grief and empathy After her best friend dies, Eleanor moves to New York and, after accidentally joining the wrong meeting at the Jewish Community Center, adopts her friend’s story of Holocaust survival. The film builds toward a moment where Eleanor could be harshly condemned in a public forum, or not. For Johansson, her movie speaks to the moment. “There’s a lack of empathy in the zeitgeist. It’s obviously a reaction to a lot of things,” says Johansson. “It feels to me like forgiveness feels less possible in the environment we’re in.” Johansson brought “Eleanor the Great” to the Un Certain Regard sidebar of the Cannes Film Festival this week, unveiling a funny and tender, character-driven, New York-set indie that launches her as a filmmaker. For the 40-year-old star, it’s the humble culmination of a dream …
