Gene Ross posts a big piece on Comic-Con and an interview with Jenna.
This is the interesting bit:
"HW: I heard Scarlett Johansson is going to be in that--true?
JJ: It's all in negotiations, but we are in final negotiations.
HW: Why did you feel she's the right actress to play you?
JJ: You know it was kind of a weird process. Obviously the companies that I sold my rights to wanted me to play myself. Or they wanted to have the rights to grab the actresses they wanted, and I saw Scarlett in Lost in Translation. And I remember thinking to myself, this girl has such a sexuality without even really trying to be sexy. She doesn't even have to try, and I was like ""This girl could play me."" I don't want someone who's going to go in there and be, like, bouncing around. I want someone who can bring some depth and she has that. She's kind of dark."

Kind of goes against what one of Scarlet's "people" told People magazine which Gene picked up on in an earlier post:
"Scarlett has never seen a script nor been approached about this project," says a rep for the actress. "She also has no interest in playing this role."

It's a shame Nicole Ritchie has put that weight on. She would've been perfect.
