Not widely known, Scarlett actually changed her hair color to red as a persuasive tactic for Jon Favreau, the director of Iron Man 2. To embody the character effectively, she dedicated herself to rigorous training, and it’s safe to say she succeeded admirably.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in 2019, Scarlett Johansson revealed that she received an astronomical payment of $15 million for her own Marvel movie. Notably, she emphasized the significance of being compensated equally to her male counterparts who starred in their own standalone films.
After numerous appearances in various movies, she finally got the opportunity to star in her own film. However, it is disheartening to note that Avengers: Endgame served as her ultimate portrayal of this beloved character.
Scarlett Johansson’s involvement in Iron Man 2 brought her a modest paycheck of $400,000. Little did she know that this was just the beginning of a remarkable journey. Her continuous presence in Marvel movies not only earned her the coveted title of the “highest-earning box office star of all time,” but also paved the way for even greater achievements. The most astonishing part is yet to unfold, as the actress experienced an astounding growth of 4900% with the groundbreaking success of Black Widow.
