Scarlett Johansson Is the World’s Highest-Paid Actress and Her Net Worth Is Bonkers

Hello, how many Oscars have you ever been nominated for? Because Scarlett Johansson’s record is two in one year due to being twice as talented—not to mention her bevy of accolades from other awards ceremonies (think: a not-so-casual Tony award). ScarJo has cemented herself as one of Hollywood’s most sought-after actresses, so obviously, she makes a huge amount of money. But she’s not, like, regular rich. She. Is. ALL-CAPS RICH. Time to dive into Scarletts net worth and find out what she’s making, ’kay?

She’s the World’s Highest-Paid Actress

At least, according to Forbes, which reported that Scarlett earned $56 million pre-tax in 2019. And apparently, most of that money comes from her recurring Marvel role as Black Widow. But Scarlett was also the world’s highest-paid actress in 2018, earning $40.5 million pre-tax. That’s almost $100 million in two years, don’t even worry about it.

Avengers: Endgame Took Things to Another Level

Forbes reported that ScarJo got $14 million from Endgame upfront plus 5 percent of backend, which basically means she also got a cut of the profits. Since the movie grossed around $2.8 billion, that amounts to about a casual $35 million straight into Scarlett’s pocket. Nice!Yeah. A mess. Or to be specific, a mess that earned Scarlett $17.5 million. ?

The Black Widow Movie Was a Major Payday

The Hollywood Reporter claimed Scarlett made $15 million from the movie up front. But because the film killed it at the box office, making a whopping $379.6 million, the actor most certainly got a big cut of those profits too.

So, What About Those Oscar-Worthy Movies?

Scarlett was nominated in 2020 for her work in Jojo Rabbit and Marriage Story, both of which were relatively small-budget movies (at least compared to freakin’ Marvel). It’s unclear what she made for these films, but I’m willing to bet her massive superhero salary allows her to take on passion projects that are less high-paying.

She’s Made Millions Working With Brands

Scarlett has worked with a ton of super-fancy brands that pay her a ton of super-fancy money. She was rumoured to be making $1 million a year representing Calvin Klein and $3 million a year working with L’Oréal. Meanwhile, ScarJo has also worked with brands like Louis Vuitton and Moët & Chandon.

So, What Is Scarlett Johansson’s Net Worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, that’d be a casual $165 million, all thanks to her endorsements, movies, and—oh, yeah—a $20 million real estate portfolio. Neato, I’ll just be here looking up my old Pogs collection on eBay if anyone needs me.
