Since stepping down in July, Johnson is known to have held talks with entertainment and talent agencies, including Endeavour, run by US businessman Ari Emanuel, and the Harry Walker Agency (HWA), one of its subsidiaries. HWA’s clients include Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Serena Williams. Johnson’s earning potential is said by some of those he held talks with before Liz Truss’s resignation to be around £20m a year.
