AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Star Scarlett Johansson Is Reportedly The Highest Paid Actress Of 2018
Forbes has released its annual list of the highest paid actresses of 2018, & right at the top is Black Widow herself, Scarlett Johansson. The likes of Gal Gadot and Jennifer Lawrence also made the top 10.
Despite a somewhat tumultuous year, Scarlett Johansson has emerged as Forbes' highest paid actress of 2018. According to the outlet, the Avengers: Infinity War star actually quadrupled her 2017 earnings to amass a whopping $40.5 million.
The Amazing Spider-Man's Emma Stone claimed the top spot last year.
Also making the top 10 are Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Jennifer Lawrence (the X-Men movies), Cate Blanchett (Thor: Ragnarok) and Melissa McCarthy (Ghostbusters).
Playing Black Widow in the MCU has clearly worked out very well for Johansson, who will reprise the role for Avengers 4 next year before returning for director Cate Shortland's solo take on the former Russian spy.
