Summing it up, Johansson's success brought in a total of 1.2 billion dollars at the Box Office.

With the she beats out her 'Avengers' co-stars Chris Evans and Robert Downey, Jr., who came in at second place in the list of top-grossing actors in 2016.

Each of them brought in 1.15 billion dollars, with their success in 'Captain America.'

Coming in at fourth place was Margot Robbie for her work in 'Suicide Squad.'

The next three are Amy Adams, Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill who were all tied for their success in 'Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice.'
