Scarlett Johansson Tells 'Ellen' She Was 'Surprised' by Colin Jost's Proposal: 'He Killed It'

Scarlett Johansson makes an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, airing on Thursday (October 17), and opens up about her engagement to Colin Jost!

The 32-year-old actress tells Ellen that the 37-year-old Saturday Night Live writer “killed it” when proposing with “a whole James Bond situation.”

“It was surprising, he’s got a lot behind that news desk he’s hiding,” Scarlett says, referring to Jost‘s job as Weekend Update host. “He’s very charming and very thoughtful and romantic. But yeah, I was surprised. Even if you kind of imagine what that moment’s gonna be like, it’s still beautiful moment. I think, more than anything, when someone tells you they want to spend their life with you, that’s a lovely, special thing.”

Colin Jost and Scarlett got engaged back in May after two years of dating.
