Colin Jost and Scarlett Johansson are a power couple with a playful side. In a recent interview, Johansson shared a humorous anecdote about her husband’s cameo in her new film, Fly Me to the Moon. She jokingly attributed his appearance to their prenuptial agreement, creating a lighthearted moment.
The story of how they came to be is just as captivating. The pair first crossed paths in May 2017, and their relationship blossomed from there. Jost, a talented Saturday Night Live star, publicly referred to Johansson as his “girlfriend” during an “Update Weekend” segment on the show a year later. Their relationship progressed, and they tied the knot in October 2020. Together, they welcomed their son, Cosmo, in August 2021, adding to Johansson’s family, which includes her daughter, Rose Dorothy, from her previous marriage.
Johansson, a talented actress known for her role in Black Widow, shared an amusing insight into their relationship. She often relies on Jost to help her rehearse lines for her movies, but his dramatic pauses and over-the-top performances sometimes hinder her focus. It’s a lighthearted glimpse into their life together.
Johansson’s latest project, Fly Me to the Moon, is a romantic comedy set against the backdrop of the 1969 moon landing. She stars alongside Channing Tatum, who portrays a NASA official working on the Apollo 11 mission. The film also features a marketing executive, played by Johansson, who is tasked with filming a fake version of the landing as a backup plan.
In addition to her on-screen ventures, Johansson also shared some exciting news about Jost’s upcoming endeavor. He will be jetting off to Tahiti to cover the 2024 Paris Olympics for NBC, specifically the Olympic surfing competition. Johansson playfully expressed her surprise at his new role, wondering how he landed such a gig.
The couple continues to navigate their successful careers while maintaining a loving and supportive relationship, always finding time for humor and joy along the way.
