Scarlett Johansson, the acclaimed actress, and mother of two, opened up about the joys and challenges of parenting during a recent conversation with Entertainment Tonight. The discussion centered on her experiences as a parent, specifically in dealing with the “terrible twos,” and how this stage of her son’s life is impacting her.
When asked if she was “tackling the ‘terrible twos’,” Johansson candidly responded, “The ‘terrible twos’ are more like tackling me, like actually, physically.” Her response humorously highlights the physical and emotional demands that come with parenting a toddler.
Johansson’s son, Cosmo, is currently in the midst of the “terrible twos” stage, which is characterized by a child’s growing independence, exploration, and sometimes challenging behavior. During this time, parents often find themselves adapting to the unique needs and personalities of their children.
The actress recently discussed the adjustments she and her family have had to make as her husband, Colin Jost, returned to work on Saturday Night Live following the Writers Guild of America strike. The erratic schedule and demands of the show have posed challenges for their family, especially with a toddler in the house.
“It’s definitely an adjustment in the household,” Johansson shared. “That schedule is so crazy, but it’s always exciting to see.” She expressed her excitement for the return of SNL, emphasizing the importance of the writers and performers in bringing humor and entertainment to people during challenging times.
Johansson also reflected on the time she spent on the set of Wes Anderson’s film, “Asteroid City,” with her infant son. She humorously noted that the cast and crew were more excited to see her baby than her. “I actually wasn’t popular, it was just the baby,” she quipped. “People were excited to see the baby, not me.”
She mentioned that her family joined her on set, especially since her baby was still very young at the time. While some people had partners who accompanied them, Johansson explained that most were alone, and she brought her little one because “we had just had a little baby.”
In a previous interview on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Johansson shared the significance of her son Cosmo’s name and its connection to her 8-year-old daughter’s name, Rose Dorothy. She revealed that both names are associated with flowers, with “Cosmo” representing a sweet flower in shades of orange and yellow. The actress mentioned that her daughter appreciated the floral connection, which added a special meaning to the name.
Johansson’s openness about the challenges of parenting, both during the “terrible twos” with her son Cosmo and in raising her daughter Rose, resonates with many parents who navigate the complexities of child-rearing. Her humor and candid discussions about the ups and downs of parenthood offer relatable insights into the joys and tribulations of family life.
