this is a war of words between the disney camp and scarlett johansson's camp.ch is why you're saying you're torn, i get it too. my daughter is a huge fan of all of these films and highly anticipated this one. we watched it together and paid i think, $30 to watch it at home. and loved it and thought it was really empowering for women and girls and what, you know, a lot of great characters in this. but to see then the real actress fight for what she believes that she's due and all of these other women's advocacy groups supporting her, i think it's a very interesting time. but i would yield the remainder of my time to ana marie cox, and whatever question you have for her, sir. >> ana, you're up. what do you make of this? >> go, scarlett. i mean, go black widow. i agree, it was a very gendered attack on her. and i have to say that this is a case of a woman looking to see who owns her story, who owns her labor. women put a lot of labor into the world that's never compensated. i think this is just another example. it's not housework, like a lot of the time it is. but

and just days after scarlett johansson filed a lawsuit against disney over the release of black widowsees more than a third of its revenues this weekend come from disney plus. julia boorstin has more on hollywood's streaming strategy and the backlash julia? >> well, jon, this is all part of a complicated battle over the future of film distribution. "jungle cruise" which cost an estimated $300 million to produce and to market, it grossed $34 million in the u.s. box office, plus $28 million overseas as all those markets feel pressure from the rising delta variant and it grossed $30 million in digital sales from disney plus. now, the question is how much those ticket sales were cannibalized by the film's availability at home, and how much that at home availability drove piracy move et nathan son warns this will all lead to a negative cycle, lower box office, leading to more digital distribution, that leading to more movies shifting to direct to consumer, which puts pressure on the box office again even with the streaming revenue, the film did fall short of pirates of the caribbean, which

having that go forward contrast with talent like scarlett johansson is a process. those things need to be better accounted for in those types of relationships and contractual agreements. emily: we are listening to the earnings call. just heard bob mentioning his predecessor bob iger when talking about the release strategy for "black widow." >> both bob iger and i, along with the leaders in our creative and distribution teams, determined this was the right strategy because it would enable us to reach the broadest possible audience. emily: what do you think of him invoking iger? scott: bob iger did maisie -- amazing things that disney. he is probably the single person that is most associated with the company, even at this point after he has moved on. that said, i do think the company has to with knowledge -- acknowledge that an appropriate balance needs to be struck in terms of not just getting movies out to the most possible viewers, and of course monetization, but making sure the talent they use for those feature films are appropriately compensated. there is a disc

>> there was a big question of the lawsuit filed by scarlett johansson which goes right to that issueyou might have recalled that scarlett johansson, the big star of the black widow summer release was alleging in her lawsuit against disney that the swift move by disney to streaming did undercut that box office income on which her salary is predicated. they seemed to address this several times on the call without ever referring to johansson directly by name. at one point he said they made hundreds of agreements with people tied to their films since the virus took hold and those have gone smoothly. the ceo says that they have hundred there contract with movie stars. the sheep was optimistic if not glowing when he talked about the future of disney plus. he said they are pleased with the levels despite a few price increases. he says subscribers will not be linear but they feel good about the direction they are heading. disney has been pushing bundles of products because they feel the subscribers are less likely to cancel. upcoming movies such as the legend of the 10 rings and free guy wil

you remember the contentious case of the "black widow" release with scarlett johansson.has been unfairly disadvantaged because the majority of her earnings is coming from those studio releases in cinemas. netflix is focusing on original content generation going forward. netflix will release 70 films this year. they decided they would venture into gaming. barclays sees this as a real revolution in the online streaming space. disney plus all enlarged in 2019. they have 160 million -- 116 million subscribers. netflix has 210 million subscribers so the space is certainly heating up. tom: some rapid onboarding of subscribers. thank you for that breakdown. let's get more on this with matthew bloxham, who covers media for bloomberg intelligence. matthew, in terms of that subscriber rate for disney plus, do you expect it to be sustained, the momentum that we are seeing? matthew: absolutely. i think on the call yesterday, they were clear to point out that they do still have to launch the service and a number of important markets. with those lunches over the next 12 months or so,

you have the scarlett johansson legal side pushing to take this to court but one thing is for sure, theos are all very aware of the fact that if they want to have ongoing relationships with talent, they have to be very thoughtful about how they manage these issues i thought it was really interesting to see that we're going to have emma stone do a cruella sequel she did not weigh in on the issue. that indicates disney sees this as an opportunity to build a long-term relationship with her and perhaps maybe pay her more for the first cruella with an understanding they're going to be working with her over the long-term. this compensation issue, you think about issues like piracy and the fact that simultaneous distribution might be here for longer than many had hoped because of the covid pandemic, there are all these different factors at play when studios are trying to figure out how to make the most of their intellectual property. >> so much happening, julia, thanks julia boorstin >>> bitcoin is back below 50k. latest in a controversial part of crypto that is up next. and keep an eye on chi
