Scarlett Johansson Teases Baby Boy Rumors With Colin Jost—And Fans Can’t Handle the Suspense

Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost have never been ones to overshare—but their playful secrecy has once again sent fans spiraling. The couple, already parents to 3-year-old Cosmo and Johansson’s 10-year-old daughter Rose, are at the center of fresh speculation that they’re expecting another child—this time, a baby boy. Johansson’s teasing response to the whispers, paired with the couple’s history of surprising fans, has only fueled the frenzy.

A Secret Pregnancy… Again?

In March 2025, RadarOnline.com reignited buzz by suggesting Johansson, 40, may be hiding a pregnancy—echoing the secrecy that surrounded Cosmo’s arrival in August 2021. Back then, Jost revealed the news only after months of silence, joking on Instagram with hashtags like #wegotawaywithitforalongtime and telling fans to direct inquiries to his Saturday Night Live co-star Michael Che.

The new reports claim this time it’s a boy, though neither Johansson nor Jost has confirmed. Their silence has only intensified curiosity. Social media users quickly connected the dots, pointing to Johansson’s loose-fitting outfits on recent red carpets and her signature ability to keep personal milestones tightly under wraps.

Johansson’s Grounded Take on Motherhood

While the rumors swirl, what’s undeniable is Johansson’s candid approach to parenting. She frequently shares lighthearted glimpses into life with her children, balancing blockbuster stardom with relatable “mom moments.”

In June 2025, she told MTV UK that she and Cosmo love dancing to Chappell Roan’s “HOT TO GO!”:

“Because he sings it, it has become my favorite.”

These playful anecdotes, along with her stories of managing family life while filming Jurassic World Rebirth, resonate with fans who see her not just as a Marvel superhero, but as a mother navigating the same chaos as everyone else.

The Couple That Keeps Fans Guessing

Johansson and Jost, who tied the knot in a low-key ceremony in 2020, have built a reputation for keeping their private life private—until they don’t. From Jost sliming Johansson onstage at the 2021 MTV Awards to their cheeky red-carpet PDA, the couple’s mix of secrecy and humor keeps fans endlessly fascinated.

Jost’s comedic storytelling—whether about their engagement ring mishap or Cosmo’s unusual name—contrasts with Johansson’s reserved nature, creating a balance that fans adore. The idea of them welcoming another child, particularly a boy to join Rose and Cosmo, feels like the next chapter in their unconventional but charming family story.

More Than Just Rumors

Johansson’s life has never fit into a neat Hollywood box. From her $14.3 billion box-office record to her outspoken stances on issues like gender equality and corporate responsibility, she’s defined her career on her own terms. Her willingness to embrace both vulnerability and strength—whether onscreen as Black Widow or offscreen as a mother—has made her one of the most relatable A-listers working today.

So while whispers of a baby boy remain unconfirmed, one thing is certain: Johansson has once again captured the public’s imagination. By keeping fans guessing while living authentically, she and Jost have mastered the art of turning private family life into Hollywood’s most endearing mystery.
