4. Emily Blunt – Avengers Franchise – $70 million
In 2015, Scarlett Johansson developed into such a megastar that she reportedly increased her regular asking price of $10 million a picture to $20 million and given the profits that Marvel were rolling in throughThe Avengers franchise, they were in no position to knock back the Black Widow actress.
That character first came on to the big screen courtesy of the 2010 Robert Downey Jr. film Iron Man 2 and since that point in time, Johansson has been a regular across The Avengers in 2012, Captain America: The Winter Soldier in 2014, Avengers: Age of Ultron where she got a significant bump last year, and Captain America: Civil War this year.
Those figures won’t sit well with the star of Sicario and The Girl on the Train Emily Blunt, turning down the superhero role of a lifetime. The 33-year-old and partner to John Krasinski might jump at the next chance to don a costume and fight bad guys if DC comes calling.
