Scarlett Johansson reflects on walking the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival with husband Colin Jost
Scarlett Johansson recently revealed to PEOPLE how happy she was to attend the Cannes Film Festival premiere of Asteroid City with husband Colin Jost.
Asked what it feels like to have had her husband attend the Cannes premiere of Asteroid City, she said, “Oh, it's so fun.”
“It's awesome. I mean, personally, it's always fun when you're
not just explaining it to them over the phone, but you're living your life
together, these big profound moments.”
At the French film
festival in May, the 38-year-old Oscar-nominated actress was seen on the red
carpet beaming with joy as she cozied up to her husband of nearly three
years, Jost, who was also all smiles.
“There's a familial feeling
with the whole cast,” she says of Asteroid City. “So everybody's spouses are
all friends with each other. It's really great. It's just a very singular
experience.”
This was followed by her co-star Jason Schwartzman recalling a
funny incident. “Just as a weird side,” he told PEOPLE, “when the lights
came on [after the Cannes screening], the first person I saw was her
husband.”
“Why?” Johansson quips with a laugh.
“I
looked back and he gave me this [look], and I'll never forget it,”
Schwartzman adds. “So I feel like I connected with him first, he was the
first person I saw — like a baby being born.”
Johansson tied the
knot with the Saturday Night Live star in a private ceremony in October
2020. The couple welcomed their son, Cosmo, in 2021.
