In the past few days actress came Scarlett Johansson big in the news. She has played the character Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the past ten years, but her presumably last appearance in the solo film Black Widow is now overshadowed by a charge that is obviously about money. Probably a lot.
The problem for Johansson is that with the Disney+ release of Black Widow will lose revenue. Disney I gave a response to the charge “sad and disturbing” to be found with a “heartless disregard for the horrific and long-lasting global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Scarlett Johansson shocked
Yesterday there was already a reaction from her Creative Artists Agency (CAA) representative and now TheWrap reports that Johansson is very upset by Disney’s reaction. She would be shocked “by the tone” of Disney’s statement.
The Creative Artists Agency spokesperson also said he was shocked that the actress’ salary was mentioned in Disney’s response. “The company included her salary in their press release in an effort to abuse her success as an artist and businesswoman as if that were something she should be ashamed of,” according to the CAA.
It seems suspiciously like the collaboration between Disney and Johansson will no longer be good for the time being. They would soon be working on the film together Tower of Terror.
