Scarlett Johansson and Disney have settled the Black Widow lawsuit, with both parties stating they’re excited over future collaborations. Details of the settlement have not been made public.
“I am happy to have resolved our differences with Disney,” Johansson said in a statement. “I’m incredibly proud of the work we’ve done together over the years and have greatly enjoyed my creative relationship with the team. I look forward to continuing our collaboration in years to come.”
“I’m very pleased that we have been able to come to a mutual agreement with Scarlett Johansson regarding Black Widow,” Disney Studios chairman Alan Bergman said. “We appreciate her contributions to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and look forward to working together on a number of upcoming projects, including Disney’s Tower of Terror.”
Johansson filed suit against Disney back in July when the studio failed to work with her over her compensation for Black Widow. While she was paid $20 million for the film, Johansson was also due back ends based on the film’s box office numbers, which were impacted when Disney released the film in theaters and on Disney Plus Premiere Access the same day.
