Scarlett Johansson And Disney Settle Black Widow Lawsuit

Disney and Scarlett Johansson have reached a settlement over Black Widow.

In a joint statement, Disney and Johansson revealed that the issue was settled out of court.

Johansson and Disney fell out after the release of her standalone Black Widow film over pay. Her contract was done pre-COVID when the film was just set to be opened in theaters.

Johansson didn’t like the idea that Disney released the film in theaters and on Disney Plus because it put a dent in her overall pay.

“I am happy to have resolved our differences with Disney. I’m incredibly proud of the work we’ve done together over the years and have greatly enjoyed my creative relationship with the team,” Johansson said in a statement. https://t.co/VP2Us9k8Nl pic.twitter.com/nwxJAY6aom
