From The
Sun) Scarlett Johansson is to pocket $20.2million for Avengers
2 — the most an actress has ever been paid for a movie. Scarlett, 27, is being
lured to return as Black Widow in the superhero sequel.
The fee tops Angelina Jolie’s $19million for The
Tourist. Movie bosses want Scarlett to sign after Avengers Assemble grossed
$1.45billion — the third highest in history.
A source said:
Robert Downey Jr, Chris Hemsworth and Jeremy Renner are also to get 50 per cent pay rises.“Scarlett is the hottest star in Hollywood and her inclusion in the sequel is a must. Producers think that as the only lead woman in the film male fans have found her a key ingredient — both for sex and story appeal. She is loved by critics too. This says, ‘We value you’. Everyone is confident she’ll sign and be ready for 2013 filming.”
