00:00 New York State now allows movie theaters to serve alcohol,
00:04 which is how I'm finally able to enjoy my wife's little art movie.
00:08 Colin Jost gets tricked again into roasting wife Scarlett Johansson.
00:14 I'll do it. I'm committed.
00:16 It all went down on Saturday Night Live with Colin and Michael Che,
00:20 as the Weekend Update co-hosts continued their annual tradition.
00:24 We're making each other read jokes live on air that the other person has never seen before.
00:28 Right. And the idea is to give each other, you know, like fun jokes. That could be fun.
00:32 Yeah, fun and completely embarrassing.
00:35 In fact, Beyonce looked so white that I was finally attracted to her.
00:40 I'm not doing well.
00:42 Of course, the biggest laughs came from a mention of Colin's A-list wife,
00:46 who's been a frequent butt of jokes going back to 2020.
00:50 It was announced that Creed singer Scott Staff will play Frank Sinatra in an upcoming movie.
00:57 But the good news is Sammy Davis Jr. will be played by Scarlett Johansson.
01:03 It's hard to have a lot of complaints. She's pretty awesome.
01:05 Flash forward to 2023, not much has changed at the update desk.
01:10 New York State now allows movie theaters to serve alcohol,
01:14 which is how I'm finally able to enjoy my wife's little art movie.
01:19 And just when Colin seems to be sincere.
01:22 I'm kidding, honey. I love all of your movies.
01:26 Turns out the joke wasn't over yet.
01:28 And if you ask me, you're an even better black widow than Coretta Scott King.
01:34 Trying to be more than just a train killer.
01:36 Is Colin a fan now? Was he a fan before?
01:39 Yeah, I think he's a fan. I'm going to ask him.
01:42 Yeah, that's important to know, actually.
01:44 Well, safe to say Colin's gotta be a Marvel fan now.
01:48 And we know Scar Jo's a fan of Update, even when she's name checked on the reg.
01:53 Marriage Story taught me a lot about teacup acting.
01:57 It's like when Scar Jo's like, "So I saw Charlie in this play,
02:03 and he was this big bear."
02:06 Colin and Michael in Bits of Laughter for Weekend Update.
02:09 It's always exciting to see those guys. They're incredible.
02:13 And we need them now more than ever.
02:15 Do you feel like you're at home, Colin?
02:18 I have to look at this the whole time.
02:22 Yeah, Colin's also not afraid to tease Scarlett face to face,
02:26 as seen in a recent blooper reel from her skincare company.
02:29 Hi, I'm Scarlett Jones, and I'm co-founder...
02:32 Okay.
02:33 Is that what you do at work here every day? You're just washing people's faces?
02:36 Let me just sing a song that'll give you a hit.
02:38 ♪ A whole new world ♪
02:40 Is he now a bigger skincare junkie than you?
02:42 I'd say it's 50/50. We share all of our products.
02:45 But I know his skin is looking on point, right?
02:47 He has to thank me for that.
02:49 Meanwhile, we're thanking these two for bringing the hijinks
02:52 to their high-profile relationship.
02:54 Which is how I'm finally able to enjoy my wife's little art movie.
