Scarlett Johansson is the highest-grossing box office star of all time. The actress portrayed an expert spy and hand-to-hand combatant named Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Her role, which ended when she sacrificed herself to save the lives of the earth that Thanos had destroyed, brought her much attention and love. However, fans do also know her as the ex-wife of Hollywood’s humor box Ryan Reynolds.
