The tale of Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlett Johansson not getting along on the set of “Iron Man 2” keeps flaring up like a bad case of acne – even though the movie has already finished filming.

In the latest outbreak today, Fox411 claims Paltrow “did nothing to make friends with fellow superhero Scarlett Johansson,” and the film’s crew “actually preferred to be around her husband, Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin.”

According to Fox411’s insider, Paltrow “wasn’t outright rude to Scarlett, she just didn’t ever speak to her. Gwyneth went out of her way to avoid Scarlett, and they had zero contact, at Gwyneth’s choosing.” Additionally, that same source said, “Much of the crew didn’t mind hanging out with her husband, Chris, but if Gwyneth ever came around, they scattered! Chris is so chill and relaxed and she is just the opposite.”

And while Hollywood lore was built on female feuds – think, Bette Davis and Joan Crawford – a Gossip Cop source jokes that the “rumor came out even before they had their first day of working together,” and noted that “Chris Martin was rarely on set so that part of the story doesn’t make sense.”

On the contrary, Gossip Cop’s mole says, “They only had a few days of working together but Gwyneth really enjoyed Scarlett.”

We’re sure these rumors will reappear when the film is just about to be released.
