When it comes to sending our children back-to-school at the beginning of the new year, Scarlett Johansson is just like the rest of us: exhausted. That's because the run up to the return to class can often be filled with a lot of extra work, like back-to-school shopping, packing lunches, and getting back into a routine after spending the summer with far less structure.
But the 40-year-old is more than just tired from all that extra prep, according to a hilarious comment she made while appearing at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival. That's right, Johansson is downright annoyed by the return to school, and it's not for the reason you may think.

The Avengers star shared her thoughts about the timing of the first day of school with E! News while at the film festival, telling the outlet how she was "not prepared" to get back into a routine. In fact, she told the reporter that it's been a "very busy time," which resulted in a funny remark about exactly when the kids headed back to class.
"My daughter's school started the day after Labor Day, which I think is rude actually and so I'm calling out her school. It's rude," she quipped. "You started the day after Labor Day. I was not prepared."

Scarlett Johansson Doesn’t Typically Talk About Her Kids
It's easy to forget that Johansson has a school-aged daughter named Rose, because she doesn't often talk about the child she shares with ex-husband Romain Dauriac. The Avengers star has often been quite vocal about why she keeps mum about being a mom, and it has a lot to do with preserving her children's privacy for as long as she can.
She has also kept a lot of information about her son Cosmo from the public as well, including her pregnancy. In fact, she and husband Colin Jost surprised fans when they announced the arrival of their new bundle of joy on Instagram in 2021, with a funny caption revealing not only were the pair expecting, but that Cosmo had already made his grand entrance.
The duo kept that comedic approach to their parenting going in 2023, when Jost pretended that he was going to share a photo of his son during an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, but instead produced a photo of the robot from the movie M3GAN instead.
It looks like laughter helps keep these tired parents going when life gets busy, which is likely why they are always cracking jokes about their kids, even when it has to do with something as exhausting as heading back to school.
