From Marvel With Love, Feige Committed To Making ‘Black Widow’ Movie

Marvel will finally let Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) take on her own solo film. Fans of the MCU have been wanting this for a long time especially during the public outcry for more female leading roles in Hollywood. I just hope people wont complain about the Russian character being whitewashed. Marvel had even tried to quench that thirst by previously stating that the Captain Marvel movie would be about Carol Danvers.

In an interview with Deadline, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige spoke about a solo Black Widow film, and her role in the MCU.

“We’ve announced the next nine movies, ten counting Civil War, through the end of 2019. Where we go beyond that are ongoing discussions that we’ll focus on in the next few years because we have a lot to do before then. Of the characters that you’ve just mentioned I would say certainly the one creatively and emotionally that we are most committing to doing is Black Widow.

“We think she’s an amazing character. We think Scarlett Johansson’s portrayal of her is amazing. She’s a lead Avenger and has amazing stories in her own right to tell that we think would be fun to turn into a standalone franchise.”

In the mean time you can catch Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson)  choosing sides in Captain America: Civil War, now in theaters.
