Scarlett Johansson just clawed her way to the top as Hollywood’s highest-grossing lead actor (pre-inflation), thanks to Jurassic World: Rebirth’s $318 million global launch pushing her career total to $14.8 billion—edging out fellow MCU vets Samuel L. Jackson ($14.6 billion) and Robert Downey Jr. ($14.2 billion).
That haul mixes her blockbuster Black Widow/Avengers run with ensemble turns in Iron Man 2 and the Sing films, leaving Tom Hanks as the only non-Marvel name in the top five. Downey Jr. could snatch back the crown with Avengers: Doomsday in late 2026 (and Secret Wars in 2027)—unless Johansson’s widow pops up again via some multiverse magic.
