Woody, 73, tends to seek inspiration from a young Hollywood star for his creative pursuits and his past muses include Mia Farrow and Diane Keaton.
His films with Scarlett Johansson include Match Point, Scoop and Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

When asked if Pinto, 24, measures up, Brickman responded, "Oh God - she's spectacular, she really is."
