Scarlett Johansson Says Son Cosmo Was More Popular with Her
Johansson said how her son Cosmo “was like the set baby” in an exclusive interview.
With the support of her son Cosmo, Scarlett Johansson was able to connect more easily with her Asteroid City co-stars.
Cosmo, who will turn 2 in August, was a little baby while Johansson, 38, was filming the Wes Anderson movie, and everyone enjoyed spending time with him. According to Johansson, he was quite the popular little guy on set.
“I actually wasn’t popular, it was just the baby,” Johansson tells PEOPLE exclusively of her son with husband Colin Jost. “People were excited to see the baby, not me. They’re like, ‘Oh, it’s you. Where’s baby?’ “
In between takes, Cosmo and Jost each spent time with Johansson. “My family came [with me to set],” she recalled, adding, “My husband and baby did because we had just had a little baby.”
“Some people had partners that came up,” Johansson continued. “Most people were alone, I think. A lot of people had children too, but maybe a little bit older.”
“I just had a tiny, tiny baby,” she said, adding that Cosmo was like the “set baby.”

Jason Schwartzman had a theory of why. “I think people are excited to see the joy,” he told to media rep.
Scarlett Johansson explained the significance of Cosmo’s name and the unique relationship between it and the name of her 8-year-old daughter, Rose Dorothy, in September. “They are both flowers,” Johansson told Kelly Clarkson. “Not a lot of people make that connection. Cosmo is a really adorable little flower that comes in a variety of orange and yellow hues.”
“That’s why my daughter liked it too,” she added.
Cosmo appealed to Scarlett Johansson because, in her words, it appeared “refreshing.”
“It’s so charming,” she explained. “Our friends all liked it.”
Though, it did take a while for Jost’s mom to come around to it. “She kept suggesting other versions of it and I’m like, ‘No, he’s already here, he’s out.’ ”
In October 2020, Johansson and Jost exchanged vows in a private ceremony. The couple dated for two years before getting engaged in May 2019.
