The “Avenger” star has talked about the wage gap in Hollywood and said in a recent interview that she was “very fortunate.”
“There’s something icky about me having that conversation unless it applies to a greater whole,” Johansson said. “I am very fortunate, I make a really good living, and I’m proud to be an actress who’s making as much as many of my male peers at this stage.”
“I think every woman has [been underpaid], but unless I’m addressing it as a larger problem, for me to talk about my own personal experience with it feels a little obnoxious,” she added. “It’s part of a larger conversation about feminism in general.”
Johansson is not only the youngest star on the list taking the tenth spot, but the only female. All the other high earning spots go to male actors with Harrison Ford, Tom Hanks, Morgan Freeman, and Samuel L. Jackson leading the pack.
