[@suzannefernall2488]

It is because she's young and hot tho, so-called 'character' actresses, which is really a euphemism for old or average-looking, don't get such daft questions. It's because so many young women are obsessed with celebs and aspire to look like them. Sad.

[@adaplexy]

I feel sorry for both of them, because both deserve to take their characters further and show more on how they see their character, but it doesn't seem mark ever will, which i hope not. Everyone is wanting a black widow movie, when mark is gonna be forced to only give brief glimpses of his character. Glad she is gonna get her chance though, i really wanna see in a solo flick

[@AsifIcarebear3]

@114273669558505659390 Women are asked these questions because women want to know about it. Men don't give a flying fuck what makeup tricks women have, or if they have special poses. Even if they do ask women supposedly inappropriate questions, it's because these movies are, mostly, (read carefully: mostly) made for men, so it mostly caters to men. It's not harmful sexism, it's just giving the consumer what they want. Edit: I don't really believe this anymore - I think too few women care about makeup shit to justify asking about it, and doing so stereotypes women as someone who not only does care, but should care, about makeup shit. I don't think it's a gigantic problem, but I can certainly see why it can get annoying. Either way it's a silly gender invention. In many cultures, and animals, men pretty themselves.

[@AsifIcarebear3]

***** "the second one is completely based on a concept that has decided who's going to like what based on gender." Urgh, this shit. Boys wanted cool action heroes, and forth sprang comic book action heroes and everything with it; including, but not limited to, big titted women, because hotdamn do we like us some tits. Likewise, women like sappy romance bullshit, so forth sprang sappy romance novels that cater to women, with oily muscled dudes who fuck women. No one but men and women, boys and girls, decided all this. "In this case, they may be catering to their "consumer", but that's because they've decided the other consumer isn't supposed to enjoy it." Regardless of society - across hundreds of cultures, throughout history - men have liked fighting and war and conflict more than women, mostly stemming from our higher aggression. It's not a social construct that men enjoy war flicks, and action movies, and indeed comic book movies, more than women. Men and women are inherently different.

[@naureenrashid5023]

AsifIcarebear3 I feel like everything you're saying is a huge generalization. A large part of the consumers of these action movies and comics is girls. Just because it's a stereotypically male product doesn't mean that 90% of the consumers are male. Marvel has a huge, huge female fanbase, according to recent polls, they make up 45-47% of it. Men and women are BIOLOGICALLY different and that's the only difference. I rather sit at home and play video games than watch a chick flick despite being a "girly girl" who likes makeup and has a completely pink bedroom.

[@C_Y_R]

[@austinserafini7456]

YouthRadar They didn't really say anything wrong though. Do people really think that the process of men obtaining sex is the same as the process of a female obtaining sex? The answer is no, which means that a double standard doesn't really exist for the word 'slut' or 'whore'. Women have sexual privilege, men do not.

[@tylerwebster2421]

Austin Serafini I agree (with the, "They didn't really say anything wrong though"). I actually thought it was pretty funny. They were just joking around and were probably overly tired.

[@AsifIcarebear3]

Austin Serafini I just want to point out that everything you said is patriarchy, and if anyone agrees with this nonsense, they just need to be drug out into the street and shot. I'm kidding, but these people are insane enough for it to not be clear.

[@mollyweasley3224]

See how stupid it sounds when a man is asked these questions? Why can't every interview be based on their work and not their looks?

[@Seethus]

Asked by other women? Yes. Hilarious people using the word " sexist" when it's women's magazines that focus on looks.

[@NovusIgnis]

And yet nobody says anything when men are asked about their workout routines or how they lost weight for a role. The ideal male body is one of muscle and physical and athletic prowess. The ideal female body is one of curves and attractiveness and sensuality. Why would you ever expect to have a man asked about his makeup routine or his skin care regimen or his clothing? That doesn't matter in the male circles. Women care about that shit. That's why it's women type magazines that always ask that of women.

[@mickeye6428]

They ask these questions of men all the time. Pay more attention. Chris Pratt gets asked about his weight constantly. Imagine the shitstorm if someone asked Scarlet Johanson about the weight she gained between movies. There would be a fucking cry in over it.

[@Jessicaro]

@@NovusIgnis No let us stay on topic most interviewers who asked this type of question were men not women. Go watch their interviews for the last movie and you will see. And if you have someone like a captain america who had to play a nerdy skinny kid and then becomes muscular it is normal to ask such question like how many hours did you hit the gym. But what has scarlet's underwear to do with anything?

[@NovusIgnis]

@@Jessicaro I don't make a habit of watching it reviews, because I can't fathom why anyone gives a damn about these celebrities. I don't u derstand why we're all obsessed with them. They're just people working a job that's more public than other jobs. I don't see why they matter to so many people. But I highly doubt there was a male interviewer that asked scarlet about her underwear.

[@yentalin12345]

I love so much that they didn't just do this as a gag. Scarlett was clearly enjoying getting to answer some deeper questions and Mark was doing his best to answer the stupid-ass sexist questions.

[@bryn1366]

King Actresses often, when in interviews with men especially, never get asked "in what way do you feel this character has influenced your life, and has acting with this cast changed you as a person ?" or "Do you feel as though your character and you have common qualities?" instead they get asked "What did you eat to get that body?" "Could you wear underwear under your costume?" "How do you feel being the sexy avenger?" they aren't interesting questions, they have the exact same answer and are really shallow. Guys really don't get these questions that often, sure maybe the ones who are known for being the quote on quote "Hot" ones but it's not the only questions they get and it's not every single interview. I hope this clarifies things for you.

It's funny the way they sat. Coincidentally(or not) she sits in what usually is a more masculine way: Arms wide open, hands on his back, chest more pronounced. And he is more like: crossed legs, arms resting on the thighs. Usually is the other way around.

@goodbyehoes I'm not saying masculinity isn't a thing, I'm saying that his version of masculinity, which apparently condemns men for the way they sit, is not masculinity at all.

[@Seppeman753951]

@goodbyehoes Tbh, most men don't do it consciously. A lot of them do though. I know this kid (17 years) who opened up to me about being bisexual. I told him he should just tell people that. The people he trusts with knowing it. And when he felt more comfortable, he can openly tell anyone. But he choose friends that weren't very supportive. They probably don't mind bisexual people or gay people, but they still mocked him for it, pointing to other men saying "are you attracted to him?". I questioned one of them and he said he didn't mind his friend being bi. I asked where the jokes came from. And then the most annoying sentence "It's just fun among guys." It got to the point where he would refuse ever having said he was bisexual. Isn't that just sad? Not being able to out yourself because the guys won't tell you they support you...

I feel like more interviewers should take hints from this. Male or female, being able to hear actors talk about the physical demands of film and shit like the ubiquity of hollywood makeup _as well as_ more meaningful stuff about their work in the acting itself is nice. Questions like "what are you going to do on the red carpet?" can go right in the garbage though what even is this shit. "What are you doing at the premier?" Eating the biggest fucking popcorn bucket I can, bitch.

Brilliant! Well done, Cosmopolitan!!! It's interesting though, how both of them struggle with answering the questions.

That shows even more how she basically never gets asked questions about stunt work and the depth of her character. Crazy!

Ashley Hunter I'd rather argue that the reason she didn't have a ready answer is because she doesn't get these questions asked much. Just like Marc didn't know how to answer the rabbit food questions. She is prepared to answer questions about dresses and diets, and maybe even has some snarky comments ready about the interviewers sexism - but if you next to never get asked serious questions about your craft you are quite taken back if you have to answer them suddenly.

Not a surprise at all. No woman who looks like she couldn't play someone who is 25 survives. The only older woman in the film industry are extremely attractive and relatively ageless ( likely in the form of genes and surgery and exercise regime). To compare - pay attention to anything you watch with men of a supposedly similar age and note the ageing signs in them ( as in this video - hair colour, wrinkles) .. most likely there won't be woman of a similar age - but if there are - they will likely look (or be) far younger than their counterparts.

giggi4455 - Holy shit, she gave them fair warning on a role reversal? That somehow means she just shat on men by countering a double standard! The humanity! Fuck off.

[@FearlessStar1000]

giggi4455 I get where you're coming from with the whole sexism thing, I completely agree, but I honestly don't understand your argument. The reason why women aren't encouraged to get in touch with their masculine side is because that's already, on a wide scale, accepted as normal. A woman can walk down the streets wearing pants or shorts and no one cares, but then a man steps outside wearing a skirt/dress and people question his actions. Women's weightlifting and wrestling are both Olympic sports, however men's synchronized swimming isn't, because "that would be just weird", according to some people. A woman working in construction, engineering, or as a tradie, while not common, isn't considered unusual, however all male fashion designers and hairdressers are assumed to be gay because they chose to pick up scissors instead of a hammer. So isn't encouraging "men to get in touch with their feminine side" the first step to blurring the line of discrimination? Eventually, we will be able to remove the gender stereotypes that come with the words "masculine" and "feminine", but for the time being, baby steps are necessary, and this is one of them.

[@SirKata]

giggi4455 No, I did. You apparently missed that I criticized the entire basis for your statement. Gods forbid two professional actors are given warning before switching up the interview on them. Are your precious man-feelings hurt because this Cosmo reporter literally flipped the script? It's okay to ask women petty and vain questions, but not a guy? Seriously?

KTSamurai1 I disagree. So many actresses have been quite vocal about tiring of those questions, and yet they still have to do all of those interviews with all of the same old pointless, tired questions. Nobody bothers to make sure *they're* okay with superficial questions focusing only on their bodies, clothes, or characters' (or even worse, their own) sex lives...

Amanda Mack Two wrongs don't make a right. I understand your point and I agree with you but all three of those people are doing a job, the interviewer included. A pop culture icon like Stephen Colbert or Jimmy Kimmel could have gotten away with it without any problem but this person likely doesn't have that kind of job security and probably needed these two to stick around and get some footage. Don't forget, she probably puts up with a ton of sexist bullshit herself, given her line of work. Besides, wouldn't it be nice if the kind of courtesy she extended to Mark was also extended to Scarlett? Or Jennier Lawrence? Or any female actor anytime they're interviewed?

[@wintergreen1784]

I think it was intentionally done, maybe directed by the interviewer; after Mark said he embraces his more feminine side “every single day”, there’s a cut where they change positions. Possibly they were instructed to do so, possibly they just changed their minds, but I really and genuinely love this interview, and Scarlett and Mark

[@audioa41]

0:23 "feel free to embrace your femanine side mark" ... "I do it everyday" lol

Anyone back here during Endgame era too?

Here here

Uh huh😭

[@izzywoods794]

But of course🧐

[@armchaircouch]

Didn’t realize it wasn’t recent until I read this comment!

[@armchaircouch]

@@Vexarax there are compilation videos of Scarlet being asked stupid, sexist questions, here on YT. Watch 5 minutes of one and you won't be confused, and note she's just one actress of dozens or hundreds that deals with mainly sexist questions.

[@lexispencer9226]

HES SO PROUD OF SCARLETT. THATS THE CUTEST THING EVER!!!

[@ZestyZinny]

I like the fact that Scarlett is sitting with her hand behind Mark's chair like she's the dude in the interview, just giving masculine energy lol. Fun interview!

[@meenaksi1082]

Right? And Mark is sitting more "curled up"

[@nourmahmoud2476]

"she's awesome. she kicks ass." what a freakin' cutie....ugh

[@julianacappiello7750]

i love how mark is so supportive of scarlett and makes her feel so comfortable

[@julesburke5996]

Scarlet looks so refreshed to not be answering these goddamn questions, this was cute

[@depressedpancake3068]

You could tell Scarlett was loving this😂

[@johnnystorm4]

I love this interview! I notice that women get asked a lot about their dress, size, makeup, etc, but I never really noticed until watching this how we really don't hear a women getting to talk about her role how Scarlet is here! It's almost like watching something from a different dimension- it's crazy.

[@tumadre88]

it's so good just to come back to this five years later and remember this moment which was genuinely really important

[@marsay82]

Mark is visibly uncomfortable with his questions. Just like most actresses. Great interview, way to flip the tables and point out the unequal nature of most interviews.

[@greenguy369]

Mark doesn't look bothered to me. Just as generally reserved and awkward as he always is... Also he looks like he doesn't have much to say since so much of his role is mo-cap and his appearance has never been a focus of the character. Hugh Jackman, Tom Holland and Chris Hemsworth all get similar questions to the ones Mark got here... Regularly.

[@NovusIgnis]

I've never seen a woman get uncomfortable when asked questions like this unless they were actually new to the spotlight. It's almost like that's what they're there for. Tell me, do you complain when men are asked about their own physical appearance? Because if you don't, then you have no place to complain when women are. It matters little to me in any case. I think it's stupid that we as a society put so much emphasis on these celebrities. They're acting. They're doing their job, and that job happens to make a lot of money. But celebrities are no more special than anybody else. They worked hard to get where they are, but they don't have some secret or special ability in then that makes them worthy of interviews. Nobody cares what they have to say on politics any more than they should care what their neighbor has to say regarding the subject.

[@laug1576]

NovusIgnis you’re idiotic. Women get only valued on physical appearance

[@NovusIgnis]

@@laug1576 Yeahhh no. Sorry it doesn't fit your twisted narrative, but it's not true.

[@laug1576]

NovusIgnis it is true. Sorry sweetie Maybe not you, but certainly men do and it’s tiring.

[@mikewilhelm2977]

"Feel free to embrace your feminine side." "I do, every single day."

[@teehamster2418]

This interview is so amazing. Not only because it showed how annoying it is to be asked the same depthless question over and over again, but also because I’ve learned so much more about Scarlett and what it took to play the role.

[@poopoonuts]

Mark Ruffalo being so absolutely ENAMOURED by Scarlett and listening to her with such attention and care absolutely warms my heart :)

[@jg-it8hz]

“You’re awesome she’s awesome she kicks ass” the way he smiles at her tho! So cute and supportive

[@DirkWillrodtGaronenur]

they should do this more often. Asking the really stupid questions to a man make them more obvious. I sometimes role my eyes when I see interviews where they ask woman questions to the actresses and man questions to the actors, but I see it and here it and that's how that works, so it is easy to ignore. When they ask those stupid questions to the actor, you get confused, because it brakes the status quo.

[@mickeye6428]

They ask these questions of men all the time. If you really want to fight sexism in these movies lets start having all of the female characters have an obligatory topless scene.

[@Jessicaro]

@@mickeye6428 yeah that won't happen. Because god forbid you see a boob in the US. Women can not even breast feed properly before someoen yells that she should put her tits away. Boobs are way to oversexualized compared to Europe. And the only reason why men get out of their shirts sometimes is to show their abs they trained hard for. And they almost never ask this questions of men. I watched a lot of this interviews they never asked do you wear underwear underneath that suit of yours.

[@scarlettjohansson5424]

Thanks for your support like and comments

[@MayaTheDragonBorn]

i wanna cry on how good this feels.

[@daya6182]

Honestly, seeing this question being asked to a man, makes me truly realize how patronizing they are. Even as a woman I sort of viewed it as normal to see women be asked this sort of thing. Great interview!!

[@gpeddino]

This is pretty awesome.

[@fionacatherinexx]

“Ate a bunch of peanut butter, did some push-ups” sounds like my fitness routine! 🤣

[@hitchinaride94]

Aww, Mark calling his friends (female and male btw) "babe" is the cutest thing ever.

[@AhnastasiaRose]

Scarlett is so engaged and passionate when answering these types of questions! Such a huge difference when comparing it to the repetitive questions she gets involving her body/looks. Woman in Hollywood need to asked more of these types of questions during interviews!

[@JamesMadelin]

Everything changed when I had two daughters. I'm constantly horrified, seeing the world with new eyes. I never noticed before how subtle and pervasive sexism is. WELL DONE YOU GUYS AWESOME!

[@KezzieWarcraft]

The energy between these 2 is just the cutest thing.

[@jayg1316]

This interview was amazing !!! How did I only see this now! And they both take it so sportibgly

[@fleurpeffer5212]

Hahahaha I love that this interviewer understood the assignment. And you could see Scarlett relax and smile big

[@cactuspearjam6052]

I don’t care if this is old: I really wanted to hear Scarlett answer some thoughtful questions instead of b.s. journalists usually ask because their playbook needs to be updated. She’s been an action star for a decade… I want her perspectives on THAT

[@WalterLiddy]

"That's her real name." lol I love that. It's like "Oh, I realize her name is preposterous, but seriously, it's actually her name." Still, she's very generous here, not just crediting others where it's due, but actually helping Mark to salvage some kind of worthwhile answers to the deliberately banal questions. We get the joke, but she doesn't leave it at that. She makes sure he gets a chance to look good regardless.

[@ZS-bg7jo]

It is actually kind of rare and nice to have the stunt coordinator shouted out like that.

[@shentzu]

Love how both of them handle this. Really love how Mark treats Scarlett through the entire thing. He is a serious class act. This is what feminism means people: treating women like they are actual full fledged human beings.

[@Dularr]

I wasn't crazy about Marks answers. He didn't mention the tailor, the cut, what tie he would be wearing or any other accessories. For the pose, Mark seem into peace signs, arm behind his guest and the most daring and hard to pull off hands in pockets.

[@AngelBeatsOtaku666]

Mark supporting Scarlett and saying how awesome she is like an actual fanboy 😭😭 Love this

[@KP-ef5bf]

3:31 and 3:57 Scarlett was funny as hell😂😂 She's savage at flirting😂😂😂

[@_sylvia.joy_]

you can tell how much scarlett is enjoying this

[@Dwolfyone]

Fantastic interview, we need more of these :)

[@potatoe3675]

Scarlett and Widow are so fkn badass it kills me. And Mark and Scarlett have such a lovely relationship, that moment when he said, "sorry, babe" was so cute. They're so GooD TOgETheR

[@AllieKitaguchi]

Mark's cute little, "Sorry babe," at 3:36 and they way they kept looking at each other all cute like had me grinning like an idiot!

[@clumsywithwords]

Best interview I have seen in last couple of years!

[@antonydandrea]

Love how they still answered for eachother

[@rodan9769]

This was something so amazing and refreshing!! Props to the interviewer!!

[@swedishgaygirl6078]

Got this interview recommended today. Awesome work

[@ceciliawong9370]

this is the best interview I have seen for a long time...

[@ajAmyski]

It showed that Scarlett Johansson was not used to answering these types of questions. Interesting interview with an important point.

[@Rabbitangel2cp]

This is amazing. Thank you Cosmo for creating such an eye-opener to fans and celebrities alike. I'm glad to see how cool Ruffalo was with this, even going on Tumblr and agreeing to answer more sexist questions for Johansson if ever needed. I also liked how interested he seemed in Scarlett's answers to her own important questions :) wonder if he was thinking how he's never really heard these answers come out of her in other interviews!

[@raebean6018]

Wow can you imagine just how much value add there is to interviews where the women are asked about their craft. This was a really clever interview. Hopefully this continues.

[@calij1876]

Best interview I’ve seen thus far!!!

[@TheMightyOdin]

Would be better if she went through the interview without telling them what she was up to at the beginning. They are smart and would catch on.

[@Skyebright1]

They look like a couple

Mark just went "it's my time to do my part. It's like I was made for this."

[@deeznuts23yearsago]

[@evangelinebodhan9220]

I didn't know I needed to watch this video so badly. Mark and Scarlett are so good here I'm so proud of these two, and I can see Mark is so proud of how Scarlett is getting a chance to actually talk about her character, and the fact that he is so comfortable with it :') I hope one day people get asked good and intelligent questions regardless of their gender
