Scarlett Johanson already trains for Mission Impossible 3

Filming "Mission Impossible 3" in 2004 got deleayed due to the fact, that Tom Cruise now shoots "War of the Worlds" with Steven Spielberg. Also some changes in the script forced the production to move back the date of filming and the scheduled release. But Scarlett Johansson is working hard for the movie already.

In an interview with ContactMusic she said:

"It's been postponed 'til September (2005) while it's rewritten. But I'm doing weapons training for it! Just pulling the trigger is easy enough, but when you're loading your magazine and you have a machine gun and a handgun and a shotgun, and you're trying to figure out how to use them all.....

Scarlett also said, that she is trained by a real professional:

"I'm being trained by someone who was in the special forces, so I get to know interesting stuff like how they train the Iraqi army."

In "M-I:3," Tom Cruise is set to reprise his role as secret agent Ethan Hunt, with Scarlett Johansson, Carrie-Anne Moss, Kenneth Branagh and Ving Rhames rounding out the cast.
