Scarlett Johansson Auctions Movie Costume for Hunger Relief
The Marvel star teams up with her Jurassic World Rebirth co-stars to sell authentic film props and costumes, with all proceeds benefiting the World Food Program's global hunger-fighting mission.
Movie fans now have a rare opportunity to own genuine film memorabilia while supporting a meaningful cause. The cast of Jurassic World Rebirth has launched a charity auction featuring authentic costumes and props from their latest blockbuster, with all proceeds going directly to the World Food Program.
Star-Studded Campaign for Global Hunger Relief
In a promotional video, Johansson addressed supporters directly: "Hi everyone, we are the cast of 'Jurassic World Rebirth' and we are excited to come together to support the World Food Program, the leading hunger-fighting organization on Earth." Her co-star Jonathan Bailey emphasized that fans can bid on "exclusive costumes and props" actually used during filming.
Young actress Audrian Miranda, who portrayed the youngest Delgado family member, stressed the authenticity of these items, explaining they are "not replicas, not 'We found this in the storage closet'. Real, one-of-a-kind pieces that will never be released to the public." The announcement video also featured Luna Blaise, Bechir Sylvain, and Mahershala Ali.
Current Bidding Status and Available Items
Johansson's character Zora Bennett's complete outfit, worn throughout the dinosaur adventure, started with an estimated value of $1,000. After ten bids, the current highest offer reached $1,850 as of December 16. The auction also includes an authentic dinosaur fetus prop, which has attracted bids up to $3,000, and Sylvain's character costume, currently at $375.
Bidding deadlines are staggered across December 18, with Johansson's wardrobe closing at 4:19 PM EST, Sylvain's outfit at 4:21 PM EST, and the dinosaur prop at 4:23 PM EST. Each item comes with professional authentication verification.
Johansson's Extensive Philanthropic History
This charity initiative reflects Johansson's long-standing commitment to humanitarian causes. The actress, whose current net worth stands at $165 million, has supported 30 different charities and 23 various causes throughout her career. Her charitable work spans multiple continents and issues.
As a former Oxfam global ambassador, she traveled to Kenya for field work. In 2007, instead of focusing solely on Oscar season glamour, she toured India and Sri Lanka, visiting educational facilities and participating in healthcare and domestic violence prevention programs. Her humanitarian efforts have also taken her to Rwanda for AIDS awareness campaigns, where she spent four days at medical clinics, and to areas affected by Hurricane Katrina to assist recovery efforts.
