We knew the girl was bright – and politically active (a prominent Obama supporter) - so it doesn’t surprise us to learn that, like her near-contemporary, Sarah Polley (writer/director of Away From Her), Scarlett Johansson is going to try her hand at directing. The multi-talented ScarJo is slated to direct an episode of the anthology film, New York, I Love You, featuring her Boleyn Girl co-star, Natalie Portman. The film is a follow-up to last year’s Paris, je t’aime, an anthology of short films about Paris. Per the IMDB, Beijing is scheduled to receive similar treatment in 2010.
