It has been reported that Scarlett Johansson is the highest paid actress in Hollywood, earning $40.5 million from June 1st, 2017 to June 1st, 2018.
It’s quite possible that Johansson will be back as the highest paid actress in the near future.
Last year’s highest paid actress was Emma Stone, who earned $26 million, thanks to the wildly successful La La Land.
Johansson’s Black Widow wasn’t even really in the movie a whole lot, but the Marvel Studios project was enough to command her the top spot of highest paid actresses.
