Scarlett Johansson was running for her life from a very surprising foe in a new Saturday Night Live sketch. 

In a clip promoting Scarlett’s upcoming SNL hosting gig, the actress, 40, screams at the top of her lungs at the thought of kissing her husband Colin Jost, 42.

The hilarious sketch, which was clearly inspired by Scarlett’s upcoming Jurassic Park film, is titled ‘Scarlett Johansson Is Saved From Colin Jost By Sarah Sherman’ and begins with SNL stars Heidi Gardner and Mikey Day talking about their summer plans.

A thundering pound interrupts their conversation and sets off an alarm and ominous flickering red lights. 

Scarlett then dashes into frame and screams ‘Run! Run!’, ignoring Day as he welcomes her back onto the show and pushing him out of the way of a door.

She runs inside the double door and bolts it shut with a pole, before cowering in terror as the mystery adversary bangs at the door.

The actress screamed in terror at the prospect of kissing her own husband

‘No please!’ she pleads. 

Suddenly, the moment is interrupted by the arrival of her husband, who cheerfully greets her and places a hand on her shoulder.

‘Hey babe! I had a sketch idea I wanted to pitch you. Maybe it’s one where we, I don’t know, finally kiss?’ he suggests nervously.

Scarlett then screams at the top of her lungs, ‘No!’

Out of nowhere, her husband is shot in the neck with a dart by Sarah Sherman, who is hiding in the rafters.

‘Thanks Sarah!’ Scarlett says, clearly relieved.

‘Anytime Scarlett!’ Sarah, clad in a hunting costume, says.

‘That was just a tranquilizer, right?’ Scarlett inquires.

‘Oh, I have no idea. Che just handed this to me and said “take care of Jost?”‘ Sarah replies, referencing Colin’s Weekend Update co-host Michael Che.

Alarmed, Scarlett goes to her husband’s side – but is repulsed when he suggests a kiss in a gargled voice. 

‘Nope!’ Scarlett says.

Scarlett, who has been married to Colin since 2020 and shares three-year-old son Cosmo with him, will be starring in the upcoming action film Jurassic World Rebirth, set for release on July 7.

The actress, who also has 10-year-old daughter Rose Dorothy with ex-husband Romain Dauriac, will be hosting Saturday Night Live for a seventh time on May 17, which also happens to mark the show’s season finale.
