"And then one day, not that long ago, I think we were taking a break shooting Infinity War and I was going into the office, I wasn't doing anything film-related, and I was like, 'OK, see you later honey, Mommy has to go to work'.
"And she was like, 'Who are you fighting?’
"She thinks I fight people for a living and if anybody has a regular uniform that they regularly wear to work, mine is a pleather unitard."
The star - who shares Rose with her former husband, French journalist, Romain Dauriac - spoke lovingly about her "girly" daughter.
She said: "She's a very sweet girl. She's very, very, very girly - painfully girly.

"I thought I was girly but she's... she wants to wear the princess dress to bed and to school and it's filthy. New York isn't the best place to have fabric dragging along the floor."
Scarlett - who was previously married to Ryan Reynolds for almost three years - split from Romain in September 2017 after three years of marriage.
