movies, which have earned Disney and its shareholders billions. The company included her salary in their press statement in an attempt to weaponize her success as an artist and businesswoman, as if that were something she should be ashamed of. Scarlett is extremely proud of the work that she, and all of the actors, writers, directors, producers, and the Marvel creative team have been a part of for well over a decade.

Disney’s direct attack on her character and all else they implied is beneath the company that many of us in the creative community have worked with successfully for decades.) was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court yesterday, and is the first public slam by a Hollywood star against a studio that’s reaping money by crushing theatrical windows at the expense of talent in exchange for spiking its stock price for the sake of its newfound streaming service.

Disney has said she will be getting money from Disney+ and comparing Black Widow to F9 is not fair as they got a Chinese release and Black Widow is still waiting for a date. If they get a release it will push the B\\O over a half billion and Scarlett will get more millions.

My respect for Scarlett johansson has increased 👏👏👏 Disney should learn respect talent. Warner bros paid everyone extra money 💰so why not Disney

Consider now that a nail on the coffin for the character, now, always and forever!

hay un olor a trailer en el ambiente que ni cuento

Yessss get them As she should😌 I’m kinda amazed people are acting like Disney’s a down on their luck good guy. I have no pathos for Ms. Johansson, but I have even less for Disney if this is true. They are an enormous company and intentionally shorting the talent is an abuse.
