There’s a reason Scarlett was crowned Forbes’ highest-paid actress of 2018.
For 2010’s Iron Man 2, Johansson was reportedly offered $250,000 (and negotiated up to around $400,000) to play Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. Since then, she’s reprised the role in The Avengers, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Captain America: Civil War, and two Avengers: Infinity War installments.
The female superhero is finally getting her own standalone film that’s due to arrive in 2020, and it looks like Johansson’s receiving a paycheck to match some of her male Avengers.
The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Scarlett Johansson will be paid $15 million for the solo picture which equals what Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth earned for playing Captian America and Thor.
