Fans have been curious about Jonathan Bailey and Scarlett Johansson's dynamic after they were spotted sharing a quick kiss on the red carpet during the Jurassic World Rebirth premiere in London on June 17. They later proved they don't have time for critics when they shared another peck during the movie's New York City premiere on Monday, June 23.
After the co-stars were seen kissing on the red carpet, Bailey, 40, broke his silence on the matter while speaking to Entertainment Tonight.
"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," the Wicked star said when asked about his kiss with Johansson, 37.
While not everyone is comfortable kissing their friends, it's clear that both Bailey and Johansson know their smooches are platonic. While Bailey is openly gay, Johansson has been married to husband Colin Jost for four years.
Jost, 42, even joined Johansson on the red carpet, where they posed for photos while wearing coordinating ensembles. The Nanny Diaries star stunned in an ivory gown that featured miniature floral details. Meanwhile, the Saturday Night Live star wore a white linen suit that was paired with a white button-down shirt and white sneakers.

Johansson also reacted to the public's interest in their kiss while speaking to Access Hollywood during the New York City premiere. “Did you see they loved your viral cute and friendly kiss?” the interviewer asked before Johansson responded, “Oh, yes. Right.” She then laughed before adding, “They got some time.”
Bailey hasn't been shy about his sexuality, and he previously opened up about the "weight" he feels about co-headlining the movie as an out gay actor.
“There’s moments where, yes, you have to be excellent to prove that you can do it. And it’s not like I haven’t felt that. There’s the weight of history," he told The Hollywood Reporter in a June 18 interview. "And there’s endless brilliant people who have come before you who have changed the way that people see sexuality."
Bailey continued, "Any sort of sense of prejudice against sexuality is something to fight against, and what better way to do that than to go and play any kind of character."
"Being an out gay actor, historically, meant that you wouldn't be able to play straight and there weren't any gay parts to play anyway," he added. "That's obviously changed massively."
