Scarlett Johansson dished on her impending marriage to Colin Jost on Thursday’s episode of Ellen DeGeneres’ show.
And on the same episode, the actress presented a new trailer for her forthcoming drama film, Marriage Story.
In the two minute preview, the 34-year-old Avengers star got emotional as she portrayed the breakdown of her relationship with her husband, played by Adam Driver.
The trailer begins with voiceover from both leads, each telling what they love about their spouse.
What I love about Nicole,’ begins The Last Jedi star Driver. ‘She is a mother who plays, really plays,’ over images of Johansson playing with the couple’s young son Henry, played by Azhy Robertson.
‘What I love about Charlie,’ continues Ghost In The Shell star Scarlett, ‘he loves being a dad, he loves all the things you’re supposed to hate, like waking up at night.’
A montage then shows the things both love -and hate- about each other, like being ‘brave’ or never closing cabinet doors.
Finally though, both of them admit that the other is ‘very competitive’ – as we see them on opposite sides of a courtroom, as they prepare for a divorce battle.
‘Charlie and I are getting a divorce, mom,’ says Johansson. ‘You can’t be friends with him any more’.
The trailer then shows her mother hilariously trying to pick up her son-in-law, to ScarJo’s obvious frustration.
But things quickly take an emotional detour, with both parents growing tearful as their marriage breaks down.
‘I’ll never get to be his parent again,’ laments Driver of his son.
‘It’s not as simple as not being in love any more,’ observes a tearful Johansson.
The trailer plays out to the song Maybe I’m Amazed by Paul McCartney.
Marriage Story is written and directed by Noah Baumbach and is in theaters November 6 before hitting Netflix a month later.
Meanwhile, Ghost World star Scarlett’s real life love story is going from strength to strength.
Johansson became engaged to Saturday Night Live staple Colin Jost five months ago.
And while stopping by Ellen DeGeneres’ show on Thursday, the blonde beauty – who has been married twice before – talked about his romantic proposal.
The New York City based actress, who as well as Marriage Story is plugging her new movie JoJo Rabbit, said it was James Bond-esque.
‘I did it!’ she said about getting a proposal from the TV star.
‘He is a cute guy, I am partial, and we are engaged now so I am down that path,’ stammered the actress as she seemed flustered.
She said she was surprised by the proposal.
When Ellen asked if Scarlett was really shocked, she became nervous and then finally said: ‘We talked about it. He killed it. He did some whole James Bond situation, yeah… he’s got a lot behind that news desk. He is very charming, thoughtful and romantic. I was surprised.’
Ellen pushed hard for some details, but Scarlett would not deliver.
Instead, she talked about the mood.
‘It was a beautiful moment. It was very personal, it was a very special moment and I think more than anything that they want to share the rest of their life with you it’s very special.’
The host asked for the wedding date so she could mark it on her calendar. Scarlett then said she had to check her schedule too.
Ellen also said that Scarlett has made a lot of money with her movies, like Avengers, and Johansson got flustered yet again.
To make her guest at ease, Ellen then noted that Scarlett made a lot of money for movie studios.
