The movie will be Marvel’s second female-focused film after Captain Marvel, which is set to open March 8, 2019.

Thom Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I'm interested, but I'd prefer something after the movies rather than before. We know her background. Now show us more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have way preferred a movie about her time briefly teased in Age of Ultron. That sequence stood out as one of the highlights of an otherwise decent but ultimately mid-tier movie. By now, the time for a solo Widow movie has come and gone, methinks. It feels, at least to me, like a Solo movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TangledThorns Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Let's hope Disney doesn't cheap out on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalvasflam Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 They can't afford to cheap out. ScarJo is expensive, think she raked in $20M for age of Ultron, probably just as much for the Infinity Wars, and more. They might be able to get cheaper enemies, fill in with Renner, and such, still not cheap, but not nearly as expensive. Jackson might be a no show because he is just too expensive even for a cameo.

Big s Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I’m in. One of my favorites of the franchise was winter soldier. I believe this one could feel very similar. That being said I would have liked it taking place later in the timeline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mechapilot77 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 so are they gonna do the de-ageing thing for the whole movie (like they did with RDJ before)? or is widow gonna look 6-7 (who knows when they'll shoot?) older than the events from after this movie suppossedly takes place? i mean scarjo looks good for her age no doubt but we are going back at least 6 years....probably more like 6-10 so generous make up isn't gonna be enough.

Recast, then use CGI to make her look more like a young ScarJo? (maintaining continuity in a very weird way) It'd still probably be cheaper than actually hiring her as lead+sequels...

M'Kyuun Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 This seems like awkward timing for a Widow movie; they should have done her story right after Iron Man, when Scarlett fever , and interest in the character, was more fervent. Personally, while I think Ms. Johansson is a decent enough actress, I think she's way overrated. Moreover, for the role of Black Widow, instead of trying to cash in on name recognizeability, I wish they'd hired Olga Kurylenko, or an actress like her, who actually speaks Russian and English fluently. IMHO, Olga's much easier on the eyes, as well, but that's neither her nor there. Scarlett's flat, unaccented delivery as Widow, and pretty much all her other action movies, just doesn't do much for me. I'm probably in the minority, but that's how I feel about her portrayals. She's kinda blah. Anyway, gripes aside, I'll probably see it anyway, as I've liked pretty much all of the Marvel Avenger related movies thus far (Iron Man 3 is prob my least favorite, and IM has long been one of my favorite Marvel heroes), and if it follows suit with the rest, it'll be good for a couple hours of fun distraction. I'll echo the sentiments that Hawkeye needs to be in there, too. I think Johansson and Renner have good chemistry as longtime friends and comrades- it comes across believable and unforced to me, so that's a relationship that would be fun and interesting to see explored from the beginning, methinks.

Knight26 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 IF done right, it could be good, but yes, she has aged, aged well, but she does not look like she did 6-10 years ago. Good makeup can take a few years off the face, but her body shape has also changed, something they have done a good job of covering, since she had a kid. Not that I am looking, but women's body shape invariably changes after having a baby. That being said, get a good writer, director team onboard and it could turn out quite good.

no3Ljm Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) To be honest, as much as I like Scarlett, I like to agree with @M'Kyuun, they should've made a Black Widow movie earlier. But I prefer after the Avengers movie so we can see 'Budapest' up to the point where she connects with Banner for continuation to the next arc. But at this point, to put out a solo Black Widow movie is already too late in the game. I'll probably watch it when it came out on digital.

Thom Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) I'd be interested if it was... Spoiler ... a rebirth type story line, seeing as what happened to her in Endgame. Agreeing with all else though, that any prequel story should have happened a lot sooner, like right after IR2.

Kelsain Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 While I enjoyed Ant Man & the Wasp and Captain Marvel, I do wish that they'd done a movie in between Infinity War & Endgame that actually took place during that time. You could have still set it after the first act of Endgame without spoiling that. Spoiler Watching Endgame, I really think the 5 year gap would be an interesting period for the Black Widow movie. Rather than a 10 minute sequence of getting Hawkeye back into the group, wouldn't it have been interesting to see this thread as a BW-driven story? Seeing her in charge of the Avengers in a changed world, trying to cope with the loss of half of her "family," tracking down a violent vigilante and ultimately revealing that it was her best friend, pulling him back from the the abyss?
