Scarlett Johansson plays a marketing guru who orchestrates a fake Moon landing as a back-up plan during the 1960s Space Race.
After ditching her superhero costume, Scarlett Johansson is now in her comedy era with Asteroid City and Fly Me to the Moon.
In Greg Berlanti’s romance comedy-drama, she plays successful marketing executive Kelly Jones (Scarlett Johansson), who is hired by mysterious government agent Moe Berkus (Woody Harrelson) to help NASA fix its image problem following the fatal Apollo 1 mission.

Her job puts her in the crosshairs of launch director Cole Davis (Channing Tatum), who has no interest in PR and wants Kelly out of his team’s way.
