Scarlett Johansson has spoken about her desire to release a studio album of her own compositions.

The Hollywood actress made her first venture into the music earlier this year with the Tom Waits cover album 'Anywhere I Lay My Head', which included one song she had written herself.

Following the album's critical acclaim, Johansson said she wanted the follow-up to be made entirely of her songs she has written.

"I don't think I'd do covers, so it'd be a project that I have to dedicate myself to. I feel like that's something for the future,” she told MTV.
