She was killed off in the MCU before any of this happened.. Sooooo I don't know how many people will care.So I read that Disney has cut all ties to SJ. I wonder how much this will upset fans and hurt Disney's (already somewhat tainted) image.
I think it maybe because until the film's release, there was no breach of contract, and she therefore had no grounds to sue.She was killed off in the MCU before any of this happened.. Sooooo I don't know how many people will care.
Why did SJ wait till after the film was released to sue????
I mean everyone knew that it was going to be on Disney Plus at the same time... Seems like the time to ***** was 8 months ago.
Also, it could have hurt the potential revenue coming in had she done this sooner. It seems rational for her to wait until now to sue--the movie had it's chance and floundered, so she can claim damages, and she is essentially done with the MCU unless they decide to bring her back to life (as they do with most characters. . .), so the risks are relatively low and the potential upside are large sums of money.I think it maybe because until the film's release, there was no breach of contract, and she therefore had no grounds to sue.
Don't really care but IMO there's something a bit petty about an already rich/well-known actress fussing so much about getting more money. I guess. Also there's folks like me who have no plans to go to a theater probably not until 2022."...Disney says that Black Widow was put on more than 9,000 screens in the U.S., allegedly satisfying its obligation the film screen on no less than 1,500 (again, Johansson asserts it had to be exclusive), and according to the latest filing, as of Aug. 15, Black Widow has grossed more than $367 million in worldwide box-office receipts and more than $125 million in streaming and download retail receipts."

It's a multi-millionaire suing a multi-billion dollar company. It's hard for any of us to get it but if I had a $100 million and thought Disney owed me $5 million more due to the original contract you bet I'd go after them. Just because she has money doesn't mean she should just say "oh well, I guess it's ok...". There are plenty of people who probably think folks who spend disposable income on figures and statues are rich and can afford to just write off a broken statue that arrives from the vendor. When you put it in that context, the lawsuit makes a bit more sense...at least to me.Don't really care but IMO there's something a bit petty about an already rich/well-known actress fussing so much about getting more money.

Sux, but there it is. And I still haven't seen BW
Well, yeah, but *shrug*. Having millions to fight over is never gonna happen for me.It's a multi-millionaire suing a multi-billion dollar company.

It’s Disney, going to the disney parks feels like a freaking Cruise now, they just keep asking for more money and leaving the customer service out of the experience, Disney and Nintendo just milk their franchises forever and make a killing out of it. Corporations just don’t care about them, everything’s a number’s game to them.What I don't get is the people supporting scarjo like it's some David and goliath thing, or like she's standing up for women's rights. If she's entitled to more money then that will become apparent, but only if Disney has acted incorrectly. If not, she'll have to make do with the millions she already has
