Scarlett Johansson was enthusiastically supported by twin brother Hunter during Jurassic World Rebirth premiere
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Scarlett Johansson has revealed that her twin brother Hunter was her most enthusiastic supporter at the premiere of Jurassic World Rebirth. The 40-year-old actress leads the cast of the new movie as Zora Bennett and admits that her twin sibling was the 'loudest audience member' at the event in New York because he is such a big fan of the dinosaur franchise. In an interview with E! News, Scarlett said: 'He was the loudest audience member. I knew that would be the case because he loves Jurassic so much and was like, there for it.' She added: 'He would've been there either way because he's a fan and the movie is so explosive.' He was literally cheering when John Williams music was just like, around. Scarlett admitted she was sharing the film with her brother partly in a bid to relive the childhood they had both forgotten – as they watched Jurassic Park together as kids. The Jojo Rabbit star said: 'That felt really special to me. Just because we saw the first movie together when we were nine or 10 in the theatre, and we were so scared and so into it at the moment. Just thrilling.' Johansson also recalled a childhood memory of being in the movie herself. 'I used to joke with the boys, I'm really like: 'I'm going to be in Jurassic Park one day.' It's just so nice to be able to fulfil that, took a car to a boat to another car to another boat so that to remote island set in Thailand.' She said: 'They get to watch this big movie like you do, that's just the joy, the popcorn, the dinosaurs.'

John Cena loves a traditional fish and chips
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles John Cena absolutely loves fish and chips and a Full English Breakfast. The 48-year-old actor has been over to the UK a lot over the past two decades during his time as a WWE superstar, and he's embraced the local cuisine to the point that he went for a very traditional meal before Tuesday's Heads of State world premiere in London. Appearing on ITV daytime show This Morning, he said: 'I enjoyed [fish and chips] so much that right before our premiere last night, we had about 90 minutes and myself and my two friends, all from America, we sat down, we ordered fish and chips, we had a pint, and that got us ready for the world premiere.' John - who revealed he went for vinegar and a little bit of dunking in the tartar sauce' - got more of a taste for a chippy after the dish plays a role in his new movie with Idris Elba. The Hollywood star also opened up on his admiration for a 'savoury breakfast', which he learned to love during his early WWE days. He added: 'All savoury! In America, we tend to lean on the sweet. It's all very filling, but very sweet. Boy, do I love a savoury breakfast! 'I've been a fan of the English breakfast for a long time - you gotta remember, with WWE, I've being coming over here for 25 years.' Although the lines between real life and art have been blurred with his food preferences, John insisted that won't be the case after he played the President of the United States in the new action comedy. He quipped: 'I am playing the role of the president of the United States. I would much rather play the role of President of the United States than BE the President of the United States. I'm happy in my lane!' When This Morning host Ben Shephard joked that real life president Donald Trump often appears to be playing a role too, the wrestling legend kept his response diplomatic.
