Scarlett Johansson has a husky voice to match her luscious looks. Hence it is sad news that the actress wont star director John Carneys Can A Song Save You Life? Like the directors previous surprise hit Once, the romantic comedy is set in the world of aspiring musicians.

Johansson was supposed to play an up-and-coming singer-songwriter who gets dumped by her boyfriend but soon finds herself in a once and a lifetime opportunity, thanks to record producer Dan (Mark Ruffalo).

According to Screen Daily, Keira Knightley will replace Black Widow. If youre wondering if Knightley can sing check out the clip below form the forgettable The Edge of Love.

Seems like Carney has replaced husky with high-pitched, which might not be a bad thing, don’t you think?
