When Scarlett Johanssonsued Disney over Black Widow, claiming a breach of contract when they ended up releasing the film on Disney+, the actresss relationship with the studio was obviously put into jeopardy.
Disney dismissed the suit saying that theres no merit to Johanssons claims, but her agents and attorneys believe otherwise, and theyre pressing forward.
According to a new report from Giant Freakin Robot, Disney is cutting all ties with Johansson and cancelling the film projects that theyve set up with her. One of her biggest projects with Disney is the Tower of Terror film that was announced a couple of months ago. She was set to star in and produce the movie.
Tower of Terror was also being developed by Toy Story 4 director and Inside Out scribe Josh Cooley. Apparently, there were other projects as well that were quietly in the works for Johansson as Disney as well. But if this news is true, those wont be moving forward either.
This was bound to happen. You cant go after Disney and not face the consequences. Even if Johansson is in the right, this is the kind of feud that breaks relationships. In this instance, I dont blame Disney. I wouldnt want to work with something who was suing me either!
