Scarlett Johansson and Jack Antonoff


Long before we knew her as Black Widow, Scarlett Johansson’s dated musician Jack Antonoff, a music producer who is also known for the indie acts Bleachers and Fun. The surprising couple’s unsuccessful relationship started in high school, specifically, New York City’s Professional Children’s School. According to reports, Johansson and Antonoff began dating in 2001 and went to prom together.

The couple split up shortly after graduation because Johansson got caught up in her career. Antonoff released a song a few years after their breakup that pretty much verified his love story. He wrote Better Love, which features some lyrics with the actress’ name on it. Despite any scars they may have, they have done well in the decade since their separation. Antonoff went on to become a guitarist and drummer. In 2014, he went solo with Bleachers and has songwriting credits for artists like Lorde and Taylor Swift. On the other hand, Johansson became one of Hollywood’s A-listers and is currently married to the comedian Colin Jost.
