Hollywood has a new reigning box office queen, and her name is Scarlett Johansson. The acclaimed actress has officially ascended to the pinnacle of financial success in cinema, becoming the highest-grossing actress of all time, largely propelled by the monumental success of her latest blockbuster, "Jurassic World: Rebirth." This cinematic achievement solidifies Johansson's enduring star power and her knack for choosing projects that resonate globally.
"Jurassic World: Rebirth," which premiered on July 2, 2025, has swiftly added hundreds of millions to Johansson's career earnings, pushing her total worldwide box office gross in lead or major ensemble roles to an estimated $14.8 billion to $15.64 billion. This impressive figure allows her to surpass previous record-holders, including fellow Marvel Universe alums like Samuel L. Jackson. Her portrayal of ex-military operative Zora Bennett in the new dinosaur epic has been central to the film's $318 million global launch in its first six days, proving her drawing power outside of her established superhero persona.
While Jurassic World marks a significant milestone, Johansson's remarkable career has been consistently punctuated by box office triumphs. Her iconic role as Natasha Romanoff, A.K.A. Black Widow, across numerous Marvel Cinematic Universe films, particularly the "Avengers" saga, accounts for a substantial portion of her earnings. Beyond the superhero realm, critically and commercially successful films such as "Lucy," "The Jungle Book" (2016), and the "Sing" animated franchise have also been key contributors to her unparalleled box office legacy.
This achievement underscores not only Scarlett Johansson's immense talent and versatility as an actress but also her astute career choices. Her ability to pivot from beloved superhero to the lead of a revitalized major franchise like "Jurassic World" demonstrates her broad appeal and bankability. As "Jurassic World: Rebirth" continues its global run, Johansson's position as Hollywood's top-earning actress seems firmly cemented, setting a new benchmark for leading ladies in the industry.
