And it might be not long before we witness the two icons sharing the screen together somewhere in the future, but things weren’t always the smoothest between the two.

Scarlett Johansson addressed rumors of her auditioning to be Tom Cruise’s girlfriend
After Scientologist Brendan Tighe claimed thatScarlett Johanssonallegedly auditioned to be theTop Gun: Maverickstar’s girlfriend, the MCU actress came forward to clear the air with a statement. She went on to debunk all these claims, as Johansson refuse to entertain this idea and claimed the idea of auditioning to be someone’s partner is pretty demeaning to her. The actress stated,
“The very idea of any person auditioning to be in a relationship is so demeaning. I refuse for anyone to spread the idea that I lack the integrity to choose my own relationships. Only a man, a.k.a. Brendan Tighe, would come up with a crazy story like that,”
Although it’s pretty obvious that theJojo Rabbitstar never indulged herself in this reported audition, she does comprise huge respect for theTop Gunstar, andTom Cruiseshares the same viewpoint for her.
