Johansson, known more for her curves than her curveball, doesn't convey the tomboy image that a company like Reebok may want, and that's the point. Her line, Scarlett ?

She was a right scruffy little thing and a proper tomboy. Keira says exactly what she thinks and she has an incredible lively quick wit. She’s very bright and she has a grand independence of spirit.
