Scarlett Johansson continues to make waves in Hollywood with her impressive career, recently earning a spot on Time Magazine’s coveted list of the ‘100 Most Influential People of 2025.’ This recognition marks yet another milestone for the actress, who has become a beloved figure worldwide for her versatile roles and unwavering commitment to her craft.
In addition to the accolades from her fans, Johansson has received heartfelt praise from her co-star and longtime friend, Chris Evans. The Captain America actor penned a special tribute to the Black Widow star, expressing admiration for her confidence, work ethic, and fearlessness. Evans, who first met Johansson in 2002 while filming The Perfect Score, shared how he immediately recognized her wisdom and talent, even at the young age of 17. He fondly recalls looking up to Johansson, considering her an “older sister” figure despite the age difference between them.
“She had wisdom, talent, and a gift beyond her years,” Evans said in his tribute, highlighting Johansson’s ability to inspire those around her. Despite being three years older, Evans admitted that he continues to learn from her, often leaning on her for support and inspiration. He also praised Johansson for her unflinching approach to taking risks, both in her personal and professional life, describing her as “unafraid to be vulnerable” and “unafraid to chase dinosaurs,” a nod to her role in Jurassic World.
Evans’ heartfelt tribute has left fans of the duo excited to see them reunite on-screen. Having worked together on eight films, Evans and Johansson have developed a close bond, with their on-screen chemistry widely loved by audiences. Fans are now eagerly anticipating the possibility of seeing them team up for another project in the future.
Johansson’s inclusion in Time’s influential list is a testament to her continued impact on the entertainment industry, solidifying her status as one of Hollywood’s most respected and admired figures.
