Biography
Scarlett Johansson net worth is estimated at $165 million, making her one of the highest-paid actresses in the world, built through her role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe — the highest-grossing film franchise in history — and major brand endorsements with Dolce & Gabbana, Louis Vuitton, and SodaStream. Johansson began acting as a child and achieved her first significant adult recognition with Lost in Translation (2003) opposite Bill Murray, directed by Sofia Coppola. She joined the MCU as Natasha Romanoff in Iron Man 2 (2010), a role she reprised in over ten films culminating in her standalone Black Widow (2021).
