"They're both thrilled," Johansson's rep Marcel Pariseau told People.

Reynolds, 31, who is currently filming "The Proposal" in Boston with Sandra Bullock, was reported to have just recently popped the question to Johansson. The couple have not set a wedding date.

Johansson, 23, the star of "Girl with a Pearl Earring" and "The Nanny Diaries," was photographed wearing a diamond ring at Monday night's Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala in New York.

She is due to release her debut album, "Anywhere I Lay My Head," on May 20. It features cover versions of Tom Waits songs and vocals by David Bowie.

Reynolds, whose movie credits include "Definitely, Maybe" and "Smokin' Aces," was once engaged to Canadian singer Alanis Morissette.
