Colin Jost isn't jealous when he sees his wife, Scarlett Johansson, kissing her male co-stars on screen.

In an interview with The New York Times, Jost explained that watching an earlier montage of Johansson kissing her male co-stars helped him feel comfortable watching her kissing scenes with Channing Tatum in their new film, “Fly Me to the Moon.”

“When Scarlett won the American Cinematheque Award, we were there and one of the things that was happening that night was a whole montage of kissing,” Jost told the outlet. “I was like, ‘OK, here it is. I’m glad someone put all that together in one package.’”

The “Saturday Night Live” star noted that if he got jealous seeing Johansson and Tatum kissing on the big screen, he would “be in trouble.”

Both Jost and Johansson spoke to the outlet about the new film, in which the comedian makes a cameo appearance. When the New York Times told Jost that his wife views their relationship as “a delicate ecosystem,” he responded, “She was just shooting Jurassic Park, so she thinks of everything in terms of delicate ecosystems.”

Johansson and Tatum star in “Fly Me to the Moon,” a film based on the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing. According to Jost, his wife does “normal things” when she's not on a movie set.

“She goes to the supermarket. She knows how to wear a hat very well and she moves around a lot,” he explains. “She manages to remain a little discreet, but she is able to do all these everyday things and enjoy them too.”

Johansson had previously spoken enthusiastically about Jost's marriage proposal. “He did it [do it in a romantic way. He killed it,” she told Ellen DeGeneres in 2019. “It was a very James Bond situation. It was surprising. He’s got a lot behind that [“Saturday Night Live”] “He's hiding in the news office.”

“He's very charming, very caring and romantic,” the actress added. “I was surprised, even though you imagine what that moment is going to be like, it's still a beautiful moment. It was very personal. It was a very special moment, and I think more than anything, when someone tells you that they want to share the rest of their life with you, it's a very special and lovely thing.”
