The hosting gig will thus mark Johansson's fourth. Her most recent hosting gig for the show was in 2010 with musical guest Arcade Fire. At the time of writing, musical guest for the May 2 episode has not yet been named.
The much anticipated "Avengers: Age of Ultron", hitting theaters on May 1, will witness Johansson reprising her role as Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow. The superhero action flick, which is directed by Joss Whedon, is expected to score another major commercial success both in the U.S. market and abroad.
