Scarlett Johansson could be getting a big paycheck for her upcoming standalone Black Widow movie. 

According to a Thursday report from The Hollywood Reporter, Johansson is set to earn $15 million, a figure equal to what Chris Evans (who's played Captain America) and Chris Hemsworth (who's played Thor) earned in Avengers: Infinity War, as well as their own latest standalone movies.

Marvel Studios, Johansson and The Hollywood Reporter didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. 

In a statement to the Reporter, though, a spokesperson for Marvel said, "Marvel Studios disputes the accuracy of these numbers, and as a matter of policy, we never publicly disclose salaries or deal terms."

Johansson has played the superhero Black Widow in six movies.
