Scarlett Johansson surprised fans during the 50th season finale of Saturday Night Live by dropping in on the popular Weekend Update segment. The moment wasn’t just for fun, and it was a chance for Scarlett to confront a joke that had gone a little too far in a previous episode and she took her opportunity with style and sarcasm.
Recalling the controversial joke swap gag
During a previous joke swap between SNL anchors Michael Che and Colin Jost, a segment where the two write outrageous jokes for each other to read blindly, Che made Jost recite a crass joke about Johansson’s body, comparing it to Costco roast beef.
Che apologizes
In the finale episode, as reported by Deadline, Che began by addressing the incident. “Before I tell another joke, I wanna take this opportunity to apologize to someone I hurt,” he said, adding that his earlier punchline stemmed from jealousy. “I’ve never seen a human va*ina. I spent a summer on a farm,” he joked trying to deflect the tension with humor.
Scarlett claps back with sharp sarcasm
Without missing a beat, Scarlett responded in her signature deadpan tone, “Yeah, I remember that.” Her delivery was subtle but cutting, and the audience immediately caught the shift in tone that she was clearly enjoying the moment of playful revenge.
Colin Jost gets his own revenge for the joke
To balance the scale, Colin Jost made sure to get back at Che too. As part of the ongoing joke swap tradition, he handed Che a line about having “more nip*les than a pregnant dog,” which Che had to read aloud on air. The crowd erupted in laughter and Johansson joined in, clearly amused by the chaos.
From SNL co-stars to a real-life love story
Scarlett and Colin’s chemistry on stage reminds fans how their romance began right on the SNL set back in 2017. The couple married three years later and now share a 3-year-old son named Cosmo. Scarlett also has a 10-year-old daughter, Rose, from a previous marriage.
What's next for Scarlett on the big screen
Aside from stealing the spotlight on SNL, Scarlett is preparing for her next major film release, 'Jurassic World: Rebirth.' The film, which also stars Bridgerton’s Jonathan Bailey, is set to hit theaters on July 4, 2025. With dinosaurs and drama, it’s bound to be a summer blockbuster.
