Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson is set to unveil a gourmet popcorn shop in Paris.

The 31-year-old actor and singer will serve punters with her own hands when her Yummy Pop shop opens in the city's Marais district this weekend, her spokesman said.

Johansson will be serving up a variety of innovative flavours of freshly made popcorn, including her personal favourite: truffle, parmesan and sage.

The quirky concept was devised by the Lost in Translation star and her French husband, advertising executive Romain Dauriac.

"It has been a dream of mine and my family for several years to bring our favourite American snack to our favourite European City!" Johansson said in a statement to E News.

The couple worked with chef Will Horowitz of Ducks Eater and Harry and Ida's in New York on their menu, which also includes popcorn tossed with sea salt and olive oil, as sweeter options like "Real Vermont Maple" and strawberries and cream.

The shop will have a soft launch on Saturday ahead of an official grand opening at a later date.
