Veteran Hollywood actor Michael Douglas was shocked after discovering he was related to star Scarlett Johansson. The 79-year-old star appeared on a series Finding Your Roots to delve into his ancestry, and was stunned to find out that Johansson, who he appeared alongside in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, is a “DNA cousin” of his.

When told the news on the show, Douglas said: “Are you kidding? Oh, that’s amazing. All right. This is cool. This is so cool.” ‘Finding Your Roots’ presenter Henry Louis Gates Jr shared the news with Douglas.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
