Scarlett Johansson seems to be involved in a romantic affair with Richard Archer, the frontman of Hard-Fi rock band. The two met in UK, in December 2005, where Scarlett was filming Woody Allen's new movie "Scoop", a romantic comedy about an American student who begins an affair with an aristocrat, while being in London. The beautiful blonde plays the role of the student, of course.
Archer sent Johansson a personal invite to a London gig, as he knew the "Lost in Translation" beauty was there, filming for "Scoop". That was the first time they met and since then they've become more and more close.
Despite rumors about Scarlett going out with Josh Hartnett, Capt. Danny Walker from "Perl Harbor", in the last few months, the actress has been in touch with Richard Archer since the gig in the British capital. Though the blonde has already returned to US, she's been having long talks on the phone with the rocker and has also planned to meet him again when Hard-Fi comes to a concert in Los Angeles.
The rock band's spokesperson comments about this relationship are quite vague: "Let's just say that Richard and Scarlett are very close at the moment. He has always fancied her and asked one of his managers to invite her to a gig. He knew she was in London so he thought, why not? The band are now touring Los Angeles. I am sure Richard will meet Scarlett there if there's time."
