Look inside Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost's $13 million penthouse
Actress Scarlett Johansson and comedian Colin Jost scored a massive bargain when buying a Park Avenue penthouse, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Johansson, 40, and Jost, 42, paid $13 million for the six-bedroom, 6,000-square-foot Carnegie Hill co-op, which was first built in the 1930s. The previous owners, Craig and Deborah Cogut, bought the property for $13 million in 2006 and originally listed it for $27.5 million in 2018.
The steep discount is in keeping with recent high-end Manhattan real estate trends: young, affluent buyers are increasingly disinterested in classic pre-war co-ops. Industry experts say wealthy buyers are prioritizing more youthful neighborhoods and condos with less stringent rules.
'It's no longer, 'I have to be on Sutton Place in a pre-war co-op and belong to the Met Opera,'' UrbanDigs co-founder, John Walkup, told the Wall Street Journal. 'It's, 'I live in this 32nd-floor Tribeca penthouse with a sweeping view of the harbor.''
While other New York neighborhoods might be cooler, it's hard to match the elegance of Jost and Johansson's new two-floor, 14-room apartment.
'The residence boasts grand proportions, beautiful outdoor spaces off all main rooms, including five terraces and eight balconies, six wood-burning fireplaces, and exceptional light from 65 windows across all four exposures,' the real estate listing reads. 'A private elevator landing opens to an elegant center gallery with lacquered walls and open south city views through floor-to-ceiling French doors.'
The penthouse's amenities also include an oak-paneled library, a chef's kitchen, a media room, and soaking tubs.
The apartment is 2.5 miles away from 30 Rockefeller Plaza (CMCSA), where Jost works as a writer and cast member on 'Saturday Night Live.' Johansson, a frequent guest on the sketch comedy show, met Jost on its set. The pair married in 2020 and have one child together;Johanasson has another child from a previous marriage.

‘Arcane' Producer Fortiche Teaming With ARTE France on Coming-of-Age Mini-Series ‘Miss Saturne'
At the Annecy Animation Festival today, Fortiche, the acclaimed French animation house behind the hit series 'Arcane,' announced it is diving into original IP with the upcoming miniseries 'Miss Saturne, a 10×10-minute animated project currently developed in collaboration with ARTE France and Les Storygraphes. 'Miss Saturne' was previously pitched as a feature and appeared at Cartoon Movie in 2017, but has been retooled as ten, 10-minute episode project to better align with younger viewing habits and digital platforms. How closely the new series will adhere to that original pitch hasn't been made clear, but the companies are describing it as a 'generational fiction infused with music.' More from Variety GKIDS Acquires North American Rights to Hong Kong Animated Feature 'Another World,' Premiering at Annecy (EXCLUSIVE) BBC Studios, Blink Industries Team Up for New Animated Martial Arts Series, 'Children Vs Battle SuperStars' 'Mary Anning': Swiss Animation Unearths the Childhood Backstory of a Legendary Fossil Pioneer in Annecy Playing Feature 'Miss Saturne' is based on the novel by Barbara Israël and will target teenagers and young adults with a visually stylized 2D look and a heavy dose of 1980s pop atmosphere. The series is currently in development, with a production start eyed for 2026 and a release scheduled for 2027. It follows 16-year-old Mercy and her companion Tom as they flee their past aboard a night train out of Nice. The story unfolds through flashbacks triggered by a New Wave mixtape, delving into themes of adolescence, grief and personal identity. Screenwriter Louise Silverio, known for 'Happiness' and 'Ceux qui rougissent,' is leading the writing, while Anne Raffin, an alum of 'Arcane' and various music videos, is on board as art director and director. Other confirmed credits include Israël and Vincent Tavier on the literary bible, with Israël's original novel serving as the foundation for the series. ''Miss Saturne' is a unique project that, while rooted in the '80s, captures the essence of adolescence with a musical and emotional intensity that crosses generations,' said Annelyse Vieilledent, co-producer at Les Storygraphes. 'At a time when young people are rediscovering the retro musical repertoire of that decade, I'm convinced that this free, visceral and resolutely pop tale will resonate strongly with them.' Fortiche co-founder Jérôme Combe added: 'With 'Miss Saturne,' we've found a team with the perfect artistic sensibility. Louise Silverio brings her already known flair for coming-of-age stories, having worked on the award-winning series 'Happiness' and 'Ceuxqui rougissent.' Anne Raffin, who worked on 'Arcane' and music videos, fully shares our desire to explore a strong aesthetic for today's youth. This project is an opportunity for us to explore indie animation designed for the new generation.' As part of its development push, Fortiche is actively seeking international partners, broadcasters and distributors interested in young adult animation. Financial support has already been secured from Région Occitanie and Pictanovo. Production is being handled by Fortiche Films (Jérôme Combe, Hervé Dupont), with Les Storygraphes and ARTE France onboard as co-producers.

Frederick Forsyth, British author of the thriller ‘The Day of the Jackal,' dies at 86
LONDON — Frederick Forsyth, the British author of 'The Day of the Jackal' and other bestselling thrillers, has died after a brief illness, his literary agent said. He was 86. Jonathan Lloyd, his agent, said Forsyth died at home early Monday surrounded by his family. 'We mourn the passing of one of the world's greatest thriller writers,' Lloyd said. Born in Kent, in southern England, in 1938, Forsyth served as a Royal Air Force pilot before becoming a foreign correspondent. He covered the attempted assassination of French President Charles de Gaulle in 1962, which provided inspiration for 'The Day of the Jackal,' his bestselling political thriller about a professional assassin. Published in 1971, the book propelled him to global fame. It was made into a film in 1973 starring Edward Fox as the Jackal and more recently a Peacock television series starring Eddie Redmayne and Lashana Lynch. In 2015, Forsyth told the BBC that he had also worked for the British intelligence agency MI6 for many years, starting from when he covered a civil war in Nigeria in the 1960s. Although Forsyth said he did other jobs for the agency, he said he was not paid for his services and 'it was hard to say no' to officials seeking information. 'The zeitgeist was different,' he told the BBC. 'The Cold War was very much on.' He wrote more than 25 books including 'The Afghan,' 'The Kill List,' 'The Dogs of War' and 'The Fist of God' that have sold over 75 million copies, Lloyd said. His publisher, Bill Scott-Kerr, said that 'Revenge of Odessa,' a sequel to the 1974 book 'The Odessa File' that Forsyth worked on with fellow thriller author Tony Kent, will be published in August. 'Still read by millions across the world, Freddie's thrillers define the genre and are still the benchmark to which contemporary writers aspire,' Scott-Kerr said.
