Scarlett Johansson has shown off her enormous back tattoo on the red carpet.

The Marvel star put her ink on display at the premiere of Asteroid City at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival on Tuesday, local time, rocking a low-backed pink gown as she attended the iconic event, New York Post reports.

The 38-year-old US actress – who stars in the Wes Anderson flick alongside names like Tom Hanks, Margot Robbie and Steve Carell – wore a custom Prada look for the premiere that gave fans a look at her floral back tattoo.

The design features a series of large roses – a likely tribute to her daughter, Rose, 7, who she shares with ex Romain Dauriac – along with a lamb.

Make-up artist Frankie Boyd shared a closer look at Johansson’s stunning pink look, posting an Instagram video that showed the details of her strapless column gown with a beaded white spaghetti strap piece underneath.

She wore her blonde hair tucked behind her ears to show off a dazzling pair of diamond star drop earrings, adding a bright red lip and plenty of pink blush.

This isn’t the first time the Black Widow actress has displayed her tats on the red carpet; she showed off her roses in a corsetted gown at the 2020 Oscars and an owl design on her ribcage at a 2019 Comic-Con panel.

Her numerous other tattoos include a sunrise on her inner arm, an “I Love NY” bracelet inked around her wrist, a horseshoe with the words “lucky you” on her ribcage and the Avengers logo on her bicep – a tat she shares with five of her Marvel co-stars.
