Earlier, Scarlett Johansson’s legal team filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles, claiming that Walt Disney had decided to put the movie “Black Widow” on Disney+.
She believes that this has led to a decline in the box office of the movie and indirectly affected her share of income.
And Scarlett Johansson also made some remarks.

Said that if the film is not put on Disney+, the box office will be one billion U.S. dollars, and she will also receive an additional 50 million U.S. dollars, rather than being discounted today.
The conclusion is that she has suffered heavy losses and needs to claim compensation.
But in fact, this movie has not received much praise on the Internet.

Although many media have received many of Disney’s benefits, they still believe that it is quite satisfactory, and one billion box office is not so easy to achieve.
Even if Scarlett Johansson is regarded as a super first-line female star, only two “Avengers” have reached the box office of more than one billion US dollars.
In the past ten years, the box office of her film works in which she acted as a heroine has averaged only about $50 million.
But it may be that she herself had too high expectations for “Black Widow”, which led her to think that the movie she was acting as a monoclonal antibody could reach a box office of over one billion dollars, so she decided to sue Disney.
The news pointed out that Scarlett Johansson sued Disney for another reason, that is, the practices of other companies in the film and television industry.

After Warner Bros. announced last year that all movies will be released simultaneously in theaters and HBO Max streaming media in 2021.
Warner Bros. compensated the leading actors and directors of the related movies, plus dividends to the streaming media, so that the actors who made the Warner Bros. movie did not lose much income.
This also allows traces of related similar behaviors, and Scarlett Johansson also hopes to be compensated accordingly.
However, in the legal contract signed by the two parties, the studio is clearly given “full control and decision-making power over the distribution of the film”, and Disney decides how the film wants to be distributed.
According to the contract and legal provisions, it is the studio’s prerogative to decide how to best release a new film.
A Disney lawyer countered Scarlett Johansson’s lawsuit based on these reasons.
Disney has also said that it is very unhappy to see such an unpleasant ending, but what Disney does is legal and written in the treaty.
Even in court, Scarlett Johansson will pay a painful price.
Disney also publicly stated that the simultaneous release of Disney+ is due to strategic changes caused by the epidemic, and it also considers everyone’s safety.
And for the Disney+ share, they also intend to distribute to the actors in proportion, never take advantage of the actors, but together bear the impact of the epidemic.
At present, it is reported that Disney has cancelled all cooperation with Scarlett Johansson.
There will be no sequels for the films she has shot, all projects have been cancelled, and there will be no further collaborations from now on.
There is a gossip that some people in this drama have troubled it.
According to gossip media, Warner Bros. Entertainment Company DC Comics contacted Scarlett shortly after the end of “Avengers: Endgame.”
Currently discussing her possible future in the DC universe.
These two big companies have been in vicious competition, robbing people and instigating divorce, and forcing actors and directors to choose one.
After James Gunn, director of the previous “Guardians of the Galaxy” series, was fired by Disney, Warner quickly got in touch with him a few days later and signed a contract with him.
