Final weekend, Scarlett Johansson notched one more No. 1 film, because of Jurassic World Rebirth’s launch. With that, she now holds the title of highest-grossing actor on the worldwide field workplace ever over her MCU co-stars like Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Downey Jr. When her husband, SNL’s Colin Jost, was requested what he thought of Johansson’s large achievement, he hilariously joked about maybe being included within the honor.
Colin Jost Has A Hilarious Response To Scarlett Johansson’s Large Field Workplace Achievement
In its first week in theaters, Jurassic World Rebirth has already made $409.2 million worldwide (per The Numbers) after its No. 1 vacation weekend and is predicted to make a whole lot of tens of millions extra as Superman arrives as the most recent of 2025 film releases to hit the large display. With Rebirth, Johansson’s worldwide field workplace whole is reportedly as much as $14.9 billion. Right here’s what Colin Jost mentioned when he was requested to touch upon his spouse being the No. 1 actor on this planet:
When you consider it, mixed, me and her are in all probability one of many high {couples} on the field workplace ever. You understand what I imply? And, she’s in all probability doing just a little bit extra of that lifting, however mixed… that may very well be an enormous report, too.
Jost is simply too good at bringing his dry humor to a scenario. Nonetheless, reasonably than saying one thing like “it’s loopy, I’m so proud,” he hilariously turned the eye on his field workplace profession, which is relatively low. As he continued throughout his dialog with Leisure Tonight:
I’ve been in a number of No. 1 films. I mainly solely do No. 1 films. Tom & Jerry. Maybe you noticed Coming 2 America? How To Be Single. I believe these could have all been No. 1 films? But? [Laughs] I don’t assume the web has info like that.
The longtime Weekend Replace anchor has finished some enterprise along with his films, however it’s completely nothing in comparison with his partner’s hauls. He’s proper that Tom & Jerry was a No. 1 film, however we’re speaking a couple of $14 million opening weekend through the pandemic there. Coming 2 America was an enormous hit on Amazon, however it didn’t make any field workplace cash, contemplating it was a streaming launch. As for How To Be Single, it was positively by no means No. 1 on the field workplace. Take a look at Jost’s humorous chat within the X submit under:
Scarlett Johansson is the highest-grossing actor on the field workplace… in order that should additionally make Colin Jost a part of the highest-grossing couple? Actor math! pic.twitter.com/FyIklIBUdqJuly 11, 2025
As ET reported, Colin Jost’s mixed field workplace is seemingly simply $249 million. In order that completely would not examine to his spouse’s “Marvel cash.” Humorously, whereas the actor has made money, he is additionally spent a justifiable share of it as effectively. In any case, that Staten Island ferry that he purchased with Pete Davidson (which Johansson trolled) price a reasonably penny.
He Jokes, However Colin Jost Is not Essentially Mistaken (However He Wants To Pull His Weight)
Colin Jost’s take is humorous, due to how totally different their field workplace numbers are as actors. However, truthfully, Scarlett Johansson’s numbers are so astronomically forward that Jost isn’t technically flawed about them being one of many high {couples} mixed.
Samuel L. Jackson’s spouse LaTanya Richardson provides extra to the pile than he does although (with Sleepless in Seattle having the large chunk of her mixed $576.3 worldwide gross) making the Jacksons’ sum a tad greater. Additionally, in case you depend RDJ’s spouse, Susan Downey, having a $1.5 billion as a producer, they’d even be within the working. (After all, the Downeys have produced initiatives collectively although, too).
However, by our estimation, Colin Jost goes to should star in some blockbusters himself if he’s going to tug this card. Followers may help Johansson develop into an excellent larger field workplace star by going to see Jurassic World Rebirth in theaters now. She could not maintain the title lengthy, as Robert Downey Jr. might overtake her once more when Avengers: Doomsday comes out subsequent yr.
