Jonathan Bailey Explained Why He Kissed Scarlett Johansson on the Red Carpet
THE RUNDOWN
Jonathan Bailey and Scarlett Johansson are sharing more than just screen time.
At Monday's New York premiere of their upcoming summer blockbuster Jurassic World Rebirth, the co-stars shared a quick kiss on the red carpet.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, when Bailey was told that he 'might just be the luckiest guy on this red carpet tonight,' the Wicked star charmingly responded, 'Well, of course. Yes, absolutely.'
He continued, 'I believe in being able to show love in all different ways. And if you can't kiss your friends... life's too short not to.'
This isn't Bailey and Johansson's first red carpet kiss, though. They did the same thing last week at the London premiere on June 17.
When asked about the internet's obsession with the now-viral moment, Johansson laughed and said, 'People got some time [on their hands].' She then spoke about her onscreen chemistry with Bailey. 'The characters have a great relationship,' she told Access Hollywood, 'and ultimately, I think they really impact one another for the better.' The actress also said that she '100 percent' understands why Bailey always goes viral. 'I mean, I get it,' she said. 'I'm there.'
Jurassic World Rebirth also stars Mahershala Ali, Luna Blaise, and Rupert Friend. It'll hit theaters on July 2.

TIME100 Most Influential Companies 2025: Comcast NBCUniversal
The Comcast-owned media conglomerate NBCUniversal had fingers in every pie in 2024. During the Paris Olympics, Snoop Dogg donned a dressage-style jacket and made international headlines as a special correspondent covering the games, helping drive 30.4 million viewers on average each day across platforms including its streaming service Peacock. In November it announced it would spin off some of its cable TV networks, including MSNBC, CNBC, and E!, as the giant aims to focus its offerings. Universal Pictures' onslaught of pink-and-green Wicked marketing pushed the film to becoming the highest-grossing Broadway adaptation ever as it raked in over $750 million worldwide. And it opened Epic Universe—the first major theme park to be constructed in 25 years, with an estimated cost of around $7 billion, and its fourth one in Orlando—in May to coincide with the live-action remake of How to Train Your Dragon, released three weeks later. "Our ability to sync up movie releases with big entertainment releases has been a proven formula for us," says Mark Woodbury, CEO of Universal Destinations & Experiences. "And we'll do it again."

The Internet Is Completely Unstable After Jimmy Fallon And Jonathan Bailey Almost Kissed In Their "Slutty Little Glasses"
If you haven't been living under a prehistoric rock, you probably noticed that everybody's talking about Jonathan Bailey and his "slutty little glasses." When the trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth first dropped, people (especially me) couldn't stop talking about the seemingly seductive "optical support" of Dr. Henry Loomis. If you've got even a tiny taste of Jonathan on the Jurassic World Rebirth press tour, you'll notice that he's really embraced his spectacled sex appeal. And thanks to Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, we'll never recover from this tour. Before the Jimmy-of-it-all, on Jun. 17, when Entertainment Tonight asked Jonathan what he thinks of the fans' reaction to his "slutty little glasses," he coyly responded, "Slutty little glasses? Are you allowed to say the 'S' word?" Before crediting internet personality Blakely Thorton for coining the term. "I'm thrilled that people having a hormonal explosion linked to optical support. But, I think, yeah, glasses can go a long way. So, let's have the summer of slutty little glasses." Jonathan said what — Hello? 911, I would like to report a crime. Before the internet could pick our jaws off the floor, Jimmy and Jonathan decided to both recreate the "slutty little glasses" reveal from the movie.

Jonathan did a flirty lip bite, and their faces grew closer because he clearly doesn't understand how fragile his fandom can be. Then Jonathan and Jimmy leaned in like they were going to kiss. But, of course, they didn't! And that didn't matter. Pretending to kiss is enough to throw the internet into complete chaos, and if you thought Jonathan's "little glasses" were wild, thanks to Jimmy's antics, two pairs of "little glasses" about to kiss might cause a cataclysmic event.
