Scarlett Johannson: I was nude in Psycho shower

(Cover) - EN Movies - Scarlett Johansson was not “concerned with modesty” in the slightest while shooting a remake of Psycho’s shower scene.

The actress portrays Janet Leigh in upcoming biopic Hitchcock.

Sacha Gervasi directs the adaptation of the Stephen Rebello book which is described as a “love story about one of the most influential filmmakers of the last century, Alfred Hitchcock and his wife and partner Alma Reville.”

The film takes place during the making of Hitchcock’s horror classic Psycho.

Scarlett couldn’t wait to hop into the shower naked to film actress Janet’s classic scene.

"We only had the luxury to shoot the scene for a day, and everybody was feeling very nervous because it involved water and nobody wants the actor to get wet," she told V Magazine.

"They were concerned with modesty and all these things — but I don't care about any of that stuff and Janet Leigh [the original actress] never did either."

Scarlett felt really comfortable during the pivotal shoot.

The star didn’t feel she had to study much to nail it.

"Maybe I watched Silence of the Lambs too many times when I was a kid," she said. "Maybe I was having some flashbacks. So I didn't need too much preparation for the scene."

Hitchcock starring Scarlett, Helen Mirren and Anthony Hopkins will be released worldwide in 2013.
