Scarlett Johansson (Iron Man 2, Asteroid City) has revealed that out of all the people she has yet to work with yet on screen, Tom Cruise is the first that comes to mind.
Interestingly enough, Cruise was offered the role of Tony Stark in Marvel Studios’ 2008 movie Iron Man but turned it down. If the Mission Impossible actor said yes then both himself and Johansson would have worked together many times throughout the various instalments of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
