Scarlett Johansson’s lawsuit against Disney over its Black Widow release strategy has brought yet more fallout.
Johansson has filed a lawsuit against Disney over their decision to release Black Widow simultaneously in cinemas and on the Disney Plus streaming service.
On Thursday, a Disney statement declared that Johansson was paid $20m (£14.3m) for her latest appearance in the MCU.
Disney then hit back: “The lawsuit is especially sad and distressing in its callous disregard for the horrific and prolonged global effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.”
