The Showdown: Scarlett Johansson Battles Disney for Double Film Releases.

The lawsuit stems from Disney’s contentious decision to launch ‘Black Widow’ both in theaters and on Disney+ at the same time, which she feels breaches her contract and has adversely affected her income as her pay was tied to the movie’s performance at the box office.
