Scarlett Johansson Vs. Jennifer Lawrence: Who Is A Better Zelda Fitzgerald In Battling Biopics?

Who is the best choice to play Zelda - Scarlett Johansson or Jennifer Lawrence? That would be very difficult to judge as they are both talented enough to portray the equally brilliant wife of the famous novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald, Zelda. Guess what? They both got the role but in two separate projects that would compete with each other.

Scarlett and Jennifer are two highly paid actresses that you do not want to get involved with should competition arises between them. Since they portray Zelda in a battling biographical picture, naturally they will be rated against each other. Zelda is the Jazz era icon who inspires many women with all the difficulties she went through, according to E-online.

The icon passed away seven decades ago in that unfortunate fire in the mental hospital in North Carolina where she was institutionalized for schizophrenia. Prior to that, she was not only the feather in her husband's cap but she herself is a notable writer. It was even suspected that some of her husband's transcripts are actually hers.

Director Ron Howard facilitates Jennifer's project named Zelda. Here, she will be dealing once again with Allison Sheamur of the "Hunger Games" that made her as one of the top earners in the industry. Scarlett's movie on the other end is "The Beautiful and the Damned."

Scenarios are derived from the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic film which depicts his marriage to Zelda as the center of the story. Therefore the biopics focus on the main character, Zelda. Therefore conflicting whichever angle you run the story.

Millenium Films Zelda's financier did not just pay for the production but also went out of its way to secure permission from the Estate of the Fitzgeralds in gathering evidence for the story as an exclusive material.

This is how speculations came about that some of the wife's work during confinement were perceived as her husband's when published - as she was surviving from her mental illness before her demise. These projects would certainly add to the wealth of Scarlett and Jennifer as they are already included in Forbes' highest paid personalities.

Just for the note, "Star Spangled Banner" composer Frances Scott Key, is the 2nd cousin of Fitzgerald. He is absolutely one of the most famous personalities that ever lived in upstate New York, contrary to the declaration of Donald Trump that if he wins the presidency, he would be the most renowned New Yorker from the area, according to Daily Mail.
