When it comes to love, Scarlett feels fulfilled
Engaged to writercomedian Colin Jost, actor Scarlett Johansson feels “very happy” and “fulfilled”.
“I’m certainly, obviously, very happy and fulfilled in my personal life,” the Lucy (2014) actor said in an interview with Elle.
However, Johansson added that she is “also a sum of many parts, and able to access different parts of my story and how I got here.”
Talking about her upcoming film Marriage Story, which she filmed while going through her divorce, the Avengers actor added, “My ability to compartmentalise comes in handy when it’s time for things like that.”
Directed by Noah Baumbach (Frances Ha, 2012 and The Meyerowitz Stories, 2017) the film is about Nicole, an actor who finds her marriage to Charlie (Adam Driver), a filmmaker, coming to an end.
Johansson’s love life with Jost blossomed in May when the latter proposed to the actor after two years of dating.
They first hogged headlines in May 2017 after Johansson and the Weekend Update coanchor were spotted getting cosy at the Saturday Night Live season 42 finale party.
Since then, the duo has been in news all over. Jost opened up about the 34-year-old in an interview with Entertainment Weekly earlier in September 2017. “She’s wonderful. She’s pretty cool. It’s hard to have a lot of complaints, she’s pretty awesome... I’m very happy. I feel very lucky,” he said, gushing praise on his lady love.
Johansson was previously married to actor Ryan Reynolds (2008 to 2011) and French journalist Romain Dauriac (2014 to 2017), with whom she shares a five-year-old daughter, Rose. She stars in the much-anticipated standalone venture Black Widow next year.
