Scarlett Johansson: The Beginning

Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson began dating in early 2011, shortly after Johansson’s split from Ryan Reynolds. Their relationship quickly became a hot topic in the media due to their 24-year age difference and contrasting public images.

Johansson, at the height of her career and beauty, was drawn to Penn’s intellectual depth and activist spirit. The two were first spotted together at a party, sparking rumors, and their frequent appearances at events like the White House Correspondents’ Dinner confirmed their relationship.
