“I know. You kept telling me that,” Johansson quipped. “You were like, ‘Thank God!’ "
While Paltrow added it was “so fun to be in something that resonated so deeply with people culturally,” both shared a common sentiment that their time in Marvel movies might be done.
“Chapter is over. I did all that I had to do,” Johansson said. “Also, coming back and playing a character again and again over a decade of time is such a unique experience.”

Back in 2010, Paltrow alsoshut down claims of a feud with Johansson, telling PEOPLE at the time, “They’re pitting you against each other and I just think, ‘Why do we need to make a problem between women?’ I think that’s the part that’s lame.”
