Congratulations are in order for
Scarlett Johansson and her husband, Colin Jost!
The Hollywood star, best known for her role as Marvel's Black Widow, welcomed a baby boy, it was confirmed in a social media post by her husband. The news of the birth comes just a day after Jost officially confirmed to fans that Scarlett was in fact pregnant with their first child together.
The dotting new dad also revealed the name they gave the little one. In his Instagram post, he wrote, "Ok ok we had a baby. His name is Cosmo. We love him very much."
The comedian also shared a statement online, along with a joke about who the media should contact with inquiries.
"Privacy would be greatly appreciated. For all inquires please contact our publicist @chethinks," @CheThinks is, of course, Colin‘s SNL co-star Michael Che.
While this will be the first child for Jost, Scarlett is a mother to a 6-year-old daughter, Rose from her previous marriage to Romain Dauriac.
Scarlett and Colin tied the knot in a low-key ceremony after three years of dating.
On the work front, Scarlett has been in the news since she filed a suit against Disney for releasing her stand-alone film 'Black Widow' in theatres and simultaneously on an OTT platform. According to her lawsuit, the movie giants breached their contract agreement. However, the film did manage to smash all box office records and have an $80 million opening weekend at the domestic box office.
The actress is also plotting her big-screen return and has signed
Wes Anderson's upcoming movie, which also stars
Margot Robbie and
Tom Hanks.
