“I was very upset… On the Avengers text chain, we’re like, ’OK, you beat us all. That’s it. You won… That’s like real superhero stuff. It’s unbelievable.” the actress said.

It would seem that Johansson and Hemsworth took quite differently to the news. While the Thor: Ragnarok star went down a more existential rabbit hole, reminded of his own mortality, Johansson was slightly more light-hearted about it. The actress mentioned that while she was extremely worried, she was in awe of Renner’s heroic deed, calling him a real-life superhero.
