Disney Responds To Scarlett Johansson’s Lawsuit

Posted by: Jennifer Retzlaff July 30, 2021 Comments Off on Disney Responds To Scarlett Johansson’s Lawsuit

We learned yesterday that Black Widow star Scarlett Johansson filed a lawsuit against The Walt Disney Company for alleged breach of contract regarding the release of Black Widow.

Disney was quick to get a response out regarding the issue.

The statement comes courtesy of New York Times reporter Brook Barnes who posted a snapshot of it to Twitter shortly after it was sent to her.

It reads: “There is no merit whatsoever to this filing. The lawsuit is especially sad and distressing in its callous disregard for the horrific and prolonged global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Disney has fully complied with Ms. Johansson’s contract and furthermore, the release of Black Widow on Disney+ with Premier Access has significantly enhanced her ability to earn additional compensation on top of the $20M she has received to date.”

This will be one case that Hollywood will be watching closely.

About Jennifer Retzlaff

My name is Jennifer Retzlaff and I became a lifelong Disney fan during my first trip to Walt Disney World in 6th grade. From that moment, Disney became a big part of my life. I live in Iowa with my husband and two kids who are growing up too quickly for my liking. I started introducing my love for Disney early to my family with a Disney honeymoon and then trips when our youngest of 18 months. Since then, our family has been to Walt Disney World over five times and we continue to plan and dream for the next trip. I love the magic that Disney brings to people through the theme parks, cruises, adventures and movies they create. As a teacher, I try to bring that magic into my classroom to help kids believe that “If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It.” I recently reached a dream of mine as I joined Magic Vacation Planner as a personal travel advisor. With this team, I can now help others plan magical vacations. As a passionate writer, I also have my own blog at magicalvacationsbyjen which is also where you can follow me on instagram for trip reviews along with tips and tricks for your next magical vacation.
