Scarlett Johansson is set to play a jewel thief in Barry Levinson's next movie Brilliant. It, of course, is going to be a heist film.

From Coming Soon:

The film, which will head into production in September, follows Johansson as a jewel thief who teams up with a conman to pull off the biggest heist in history. However, the duo's relationship is fraught with twists and turns.

Looks set for another different role for Johansson's varied career, I'm quite a fan of hers, and not because she's stunningly gorgeous!
