Did anyone hear about Scarlett Johansson suing Disney over the Black Widow release? What do you think about it? I do think they should have released it only in theaters like it was originally meant to be. (At least in the US where theaters are pretty much open) I think releasing it on Disney+ stopped a lot of the potential revenue it could have had. But, I am also unsure if ruining her relationship with Disney is the best decision for her career - Especially with how well the Avengers movies did. What are your thoughts?

Scarlett Johansson Sues Disney Over Black Widow
You can’t let things like this slide, they basically screwed her out of money.
If I take less upfront money with promises to get it based on a performance target or points on the backend and then the studio sabotages my ability to get that backend money….I’m SUING!
Especially being in Scarlett’s position where you don’t have to worry about not being able to pay your bills if you never get another Disney movie.
Good point, if she didnt sue and the movie had a diminished box office, it would justify underpaying her for the next film too.
In that business - you do not want to burn bridges. However, you don't want to be taken advantage of either. It's hard to say what she should have done but I can certainly understand why she did.
I hope she gets paid cause this is gonna be it for her doing big time movies. Mickey Mouse don’t be playing.
Yeah Mickey Mouse a straight gangsta that’s why he felt comfortable playing her in the first place. He hit ScarJo with the….
Some bridges needa be burnt though so that you know you have to move on regardless.
