The film titled 'Jojo Rabbit' will be produced by Taika Waititi of 'Thor: Ragnarok' fame.

According to Hollywood Reporter, Johansson is in final negotiations for the project set in the Nazi-era Germany.

The film is going to be a satirical, based on the struggles faced by a 10-year-old boy in an increasingly fascist Germany. Johansson will essay the role of the kid's mother.
