Scarlett Johansson’s rare comment on Jurassic World Rebirth co-star Jonathan Bailey

Scarlett Johansson appeared to be unfazed after sharing kisses with Jonathan Bailey, which sent fans into a frenzy.

On Wednesday’s episode of Today, host Craig Melvin brought up the Jurassic World: Rebirth co-stars’ viral red carpet moments during their press tour for the upcoming film.

"He’s just so attractive," Melvin remarked, to which Johansson, who recently made her directorial debut with Eleanor the Great, agreed, defending their platonic kiss, saying, "Yeah, you said it."

Explaining why she kissed her co-star, Saturday Night Live regular Colin Jost’s wife simply said, "He’s a lovable guy, what can I say?"

She continued with a playful quip, "I don’t know, we’re friendly people," brushing off the hype around the moment.

When asked about the internet’s reaction to the photos, the Black Widow actress shrugged, "Nothing surprises me, you know what I mean? Nothing surprises me these days. But yeah, I’ve got a lot of love to give, what can I say?"

For the unversed, the Bridgerton star and Johansson, 40, have shared a few smooches on the red carpet. 

Most recently the two locked lips at the London premiere of the latest Jurassic Park sequel on June 17 and wasn't shy to do it again at the New York City premiere on Monday.
