The film set a box office record for the Covid-19 pandemic, grossing $218m in its first weekend. But box office receipts then fell sharply and Ms Johansson argues she was deprived of potential earnings, because Disney gave members the option to buy the movie on Disney+ for $30. Do you think that the Disney+ revenue should count towards the contract as well? Yes
