Tom Cruise is one of Hollywood’s top-rated actors of all time. From his profound acting skills to his charismatic personality, the Mission: Impossible star does not fail in capturing hearts at all – be it of the ordinary public or even of cinematic stars.
Recently, one of the actresses who have fallen prey to his charming persona is none other than the Black Widow star, Scarlett Johansson. The brilliant actress has claimed she would ‘love’ to work with Tom Cruise.
Scarlett Johansson Wants to Star in New Movie with Tom Cruise
While Tom Cruise is one of the highest-paid actors in all of Hollywood, Scarlett Johansson is one of the highest-paid actors in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, irrespective of their pay, both are highly wanted and loved stars of Hollywood. Their brilliant acting skills along with their fearless personalities make them one of the top-rated stars of all time.
Recently, the Black Widow actress has revealed how much she would ‘love’ to work with the Mission Impossible star Tom Cruise, claiming he’s one of the actors who she hasn’t worked with yet and would like to work with in the future. At the recent premiere of her movie Asteroid City in NYC, the 38-year-old actress said,
“I’d love to work with Tom Cruise.”
Scarlett Johansson also added how she would really like it if someone should cast them together as co-stars in her next movie.
Tom Cruise, on the other hand, agrees with the Black Widow star. During his recent movie premiere Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One in Rome, the actor smiled when asked if he wanted to star with Johansson, saying,
“She’s amazing [Scarlett Johansson]. There’s a great actress and a movie star.”
Furthermore, when asked if he planned to be on board to star opposite Johansson in a movie anytime soon, the Mission Impossible actor responded immediately by saying,
“Yes. It’s gonna happen. Look, I’ve watched her career her whole life. She’s enormously talented, very charismatic. It’d be fun. She could do everything. She could do comedy, drama, action, suspense. She’s someone that really draws you in on the screen, on camera. So absolutely, it’s gonna happen.”
While both the stars have confirmed their opinions of starring opposite each other, the fact that whether it will come true or not remains a mystery for now, at least.
Scarlett Johansson Sued Disney Regarding Her Black Widow Payday
While Scarlett Johansson is one of the highest-paid stars of MCU, however, according to reports, the Black Widow star is said to have sued Disney in July 2022, at the Los Angeles Superior Court.
In the lawsuit filed by the actress, Scarlett Johansson alleged Disney, which is the owner of Marvel Studios, had deliberately hindered the movie Black Widow‘s potential success at the box office to promote the growth of its emerging Disney+ streaming service. Disney, meanwhile, countered the claim by highlighting the fact that Johansson was paid $20M in compensation for her contribution to the movie.
After a lot of controversy, however, this lawsuit too seems to have settled down. Recently, reports have come up stating that the lawsuit between Disney and Johansson has been settled with a breach of contract.
While the terms of the deal have not been disclosed, what’s appealing is that both Disney as well as Scarlett Johansson have agreed on the terms and conditions, and are looking forward to working together on numerous upcoming projects, including Disney’s Tower of Terror.
