For those out of the loop, Jack Antonoff isn’t just some guy from Scarlett Johansson’s teenage love diaries. He’s a veteran music producer and “Anti-Hero” co-writer who’s been part of all upcoming Taylor Swift projects since her pop debut with 1989—and yes, they just dropped ‘Taylor’s Version’ last October. But what does any of this have to do with ScarJo? Well, hold onto your hats because the answer lies deep in the jungle of internet comments.

Jack and Scarlett date. Scarlett marries Ryan. Ryan marries Blake. Blake BFF is Taylor. Taylor writes with Jack. 🤯
If you’re scratching your head, here’s the breakdown: Jack (Antonoff) and Scarlett (Johansson) used to date. After that, Scarlett married Ryan (Reynolds), who later tied the knot with Blake (Lively). And guess who Blake’s BFF is? None other than Taylor (Swift)—you might’ve seen them at Chiefs games, just two pals hanging out. And to bring it full circle, Taylor collaborates with Jack on her music. Honestly, it reads like a plot straight out of a daytime soap opera!

A friend from Antonoff’s high school days shared with Page Six back in 2014 that the relationship between him and Johansson ended shortly after they graduated. According to the friend, the MCU veteran actress allegedly became immersed in the glitz of Hollywood, which led to their breakup. A few years later, Antonoff, who was then the lead vocalist for the band Steel Train, released the most 2000s angst-ridden song you’ve heard, which seemed to echo this sentiment. The track, тιтled “Better Love,” features quite telling lyrics such as “Scars are in her name / And she scars me with blame / Hey Scarlett, you’re not the same,” and “This girl, she had it kinda sweet / ‘Till fame swept her off her feet / She sees nothing she did before / Lets her colors hit the floor.”

Two decades have pᴀssed since these high school sweethearts went their separate ways, with both carving out successful careers. Johansson recently voiced a character in the upcoming animated film Transformers One. Meanwhile, Antonoff has been busy producing Swift’s latest album, The Torchered Poets Department, laden with soul-stirring lyrics. He even joined Swift onstage for a surprise for a surprise nightly performance duet of “Getaway Car” during the first night of her New Jersey shows last May, showcasing their dynamic collaboration.
