Hey guys, Willie Geist here with another episode of the Sunday Sit Down podcast.

My thanks as always for clicking and listening along.

I am very excited to bring you my conversation this week because, man, we landed a big one for you.

She is one of the biggest stars on the planet, Scarlett Johansson. Yeah, Scarlett Johansson. She's starring in the new Wes Anderson movie called Asteroid City. I will let her explain it to you, but you get it. It's West Anderson. It's completely unique. It's beautiful. It's interesting. It's a little weird in all the best ways.

It has an incredible cast. And you'll hear her talk about the experience of shooting this

movie with this amazing group of Academy Award winners that got together to do this movie.

So a lot to talk about in terms of her film career. We talk a little Marvel movies.

We get into her start. Her first movie was at nine years old in a Rob Reiner film, and it's just been a rocket ship to the moon since then, including the movie that kind of broke her out into adult stardom.

Lost in Translation, where she played alongside Bill Murray. That movie came out 20 years ago, which I kind of shocked her when I broke that news to her.

We got together at the offices of the skincare company.

She co-founded just over a year ago, March of 2022.

It's called The Outset.

So we're sitting in her office.

And when I say office, you might imagine this big skin care, L'O,

I think, no, it's like a room on a floor in a building in New York City.

It is truly a scrappy startup, small group of people, and they're sitting at one of the

desks is Scarlett Johansson.

So she's put a lot into this.

So we get into that as well.

As you know, Scarlett is married to Colin Jost, the head writer at Saturday Night Live and also, of course, the anchor of weekend update along with Michael Che. So she talks a little bit about how Colin Jose sort of test drove some of these products. He's a big eye cream guy. Who knew? Colin Jost, an eye cream guy. So much fun to sit down with Scarlett Johansson. I think you'll enjoy our conversation right now on the Sunday Sitdown podcast. Thanks for having us, Scarlett. Great to see you. I want to talk about the outset a lot. I'm here for the eye cream. Great. The Colin Jost eye cream, as I understand it. That's how it's commonly known, I do. But let's start, if we can, with Asteroid City, which is an amazing Wes Anderson film. Beautiful to look at, as all of his stuff is. You've worked with him, but in a voice, you did I Love Dogs. Yes. People remember that. But you haven't really been in one of his films.

So what is that phone call like when Wes says, not only do I want you in the movie,

but I wrote a part for you.
