Beauty and the Beast? Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson Spotted Together
by Tina Musial
Scarlett Johansson seems to have gotten over Ryan Reynolds pretty fast. It is rumored that Scarlett has taken up with Sean Penn and the two are quite taken with each other. And in what is strangely coincidental, Scarlett looks like Sean’s ex Robin Wright. Sean kind of looks like an older version of Ryan Reynolds too.
It seems that Sean and Scarlett were in the same vicinity, working on movies. They just happened to see each other and have a chat…and dinner and…?? Another coincidence?
From US Magazine:
"Just weeks after announcing her split with hubby Ryan Reynolds, Scarlett Johansson, 26, has a new leading man in her life -- Academy-Award winning actor Sean Penn, 50! A source tells the new issue of Us Weekly that the duo began their fling in early January when she was staying at L.A.'s Chateau Marmont while filming 'We Bought a Zoo' with Matt Damon."
'Their first hook-up was in Scarlett's Bungalow,' says the insider.
'Scarlett first reached out to Sean when she was planning to visit Haiti with Oxfam,' says the source. 'She knew Sean was living there in a tent and turned to him for advice.'"
I think Scarlett is a pretty, smart girl. It makes sense. With an impending divorce, find another actor with a stable career. But one who is twice your age? That doesn’t make any sense for Scarlett. Do you think there is any truth to these reports about a romance between the two?
If the age difference between her and Ryan was an issue, how would ten more years between her and Sean be better?
What do you think? Is Sean Penn too old for Scarlett? Does age even matter in this case?
