Scarlett Johansson has never been afraid to nail her colours to the mast.

The actor and activist, recently seen mocking Ivanka Trump in a Saturday Night Live sketch, is known for speaking frankly about everything from Hollywood sexism to the pressures of single motherhood and the trouble with marriage and monogamy (“It’s unnatural”). She campaigned against Donald Trump in last year’s presidential election, and is a proud advocate for Planned Parenthood – the American reproductive health organisation currently under threat from the Trump administration.

In a new interview, Johansson reveals that she hopes her two-year-old daughter Rose Dorothy Dauriac will also speak out for what she believes in when she grows up.

“Whenever you speak publicly it’s always a risk, right? Maybe you’ll lose some followers,” the 32-year-old actor tells Cosmopolitan. “But if you have something to say, it can be really impactful.

“I hope my daughter finds her voice and feels like she can engage anyone in any number of topics.”
