Scarlett Johansson has been blessing our screens since 1994. Her diverse filmography means most people know her name and face. From blockbuster roles like Natasha Romanoff and the voice of Samantha in Her, Johansson has a lot to offer. Here are some of her best films that you can stream right now:

AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR

Avengers: Endgame is yet to hit streaming, but Infinity War is available on Netflix. The battle against Thanos comes to a head, and Black Widow and the rest of the Avengers have to call on all the superheroes in the world to defeat the villain with a God complex.

LOST IN TRANSLATION

Bill Murray joins Johansson in this movie written and directed by Sofia Coppola. It follows the life of a fading movie star who meets a young woman in Tokyo. The pair forms an unlikely bond. It’s a touching, vibrant movie that you will add to your list of favorite movies after seeing it once. Lost In Translation is available to stream on Starz.

UNDER THE SKIN

As some viewers have aptly put it: Johansson spends most of her time in a big fur coat or naked. She plays a mysterious in Scotland. She’s so mysterious that she is just referred to as “The Female.” Under the Skin is available to stream on Netflix.

HER

What’s as sexy as Scarlett Johansson? Scarlett Johansson’s voice. That’s all we get from her in this movie starring Joaquin Phoenix, but she plays the most important role. The movie is moving, and you won’t regret watching it. Her is available to stream on Netflix.

MATCH POINT

This Woody Allen film puts Scarlett Johansson in the role as the other woman. When Jonathan Rhys Myers’ character takes up an affair with Johansson, he has to choose between living a life of luxury or being with someone he loves. Everything gets a little messy toward the end though, adding a different twist to this classic tale. Match Point is available on Amazon.

VICKY CHRISTINA BARCELONA

Forget love triangles, this is a love rectangle. Javier Bardem approaches Johansson and Rebecca Hall for a threesome. Though Hall denies, both of them go to his villa and separately start a relationship with the sexy painter. Things get even more complicated when Bardem’s ex-wife, played by Penelope Cruz, shows up. So, yeah, love rectangle. Vicky Christina Barcelona is available to stream on iTunes.
