The court documents ask for the enforcement of a prenuptial agreement dated September 24, 2014.In a statement on Wednesday, Dauriac said it was &quot;unfortunate&quot; that Johansson filed for divorce in court &quot;and made our personal differences so public.&quot;&quot;I would implore her to withdraw her action promptly and to go back, as uncomfortable as it might be, to the negotiating table,&quot; he said.The &quot;Lost in Translation&quot; actress declined to comment on the divorce.&quot;As a devoted mother and private person and with complete awareness that my daughter will one day be old enough to read the news about herself, I would only like to say that I will never, ever be commenting on the dissolution of my marriage,&quot; Johansson said in a statement.The divorce filing comes after media reports in January that the couple were separated. A lawyer for Dauriac said they both presently live in New York, but not together.This is the second marriage for &quot;Captain America&quot; star Johansson, who was married to &quot;Deadpool&quot; actor Ryan Reynolds from 2008 to 2011.
