Scarlett Johansson, fiance Colin Jost share a sweet moment on ‘SNL’ stage: ‘I met the love of my life here’

Scarlett Johansson’s hosting gig on “Saturday Night Live” featured a sweet moment with fiance Colin Jost amid an “Avengers”-inspired monologue. 

Johannson embarked on a quest to stop Pete Davidson from using Thanos’ Infinity Gauntlet to make cast members disappear. At one point, she’s joined by “Weekend Update” anchors Michael Che and Colin Jost.

“Hey, don’t worry: I’m safe,” Jost assures her. 

“Oh. Hey, what’s up?” Johansson deadpans. Jost is a little hurt that his fiancee isn’t more relieved to discover he’s OK. 

Later on, Kenan Thompson arrives as Samuel L. Jackson’s “Avengers” character, but Johansson struggles to recall his name. 

“Nick Fury from S.H.I.E.L.D. Do you not watch the movies?” Jost chimes in.

Johansson, with the help of Thompson’s Fury, is able to convince Davidson to return the “SNL” cast members to the show. (He had banished them to NBC’s upcoming Peacock streaming service.) 

“It’s great to have you all back,” Johansson said onstage, flanked by cast members, including Jost. “I just want to say that this place means so much to me. I have so many friends here and I met the love of my life here.

“Merry Christmas,” she added, giving Jost a kiss before wrapping up her monologue.
