A Black Widow movie may finally be happening

While Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow has been an integral part of the MCU since Iron Man 2, she’s yet to get her own solo movie. Based on a recent comment from Stan Lee himself, however, the wait may be over at long last.

According to ComicBook.com, Lee stated at a panel that a Natalia Romanoff film will happen, although he wasn’t clear when.

“One day there will be a Black Widow movie,” he stated.

As far as female lead superhero movies go, Marvel has Captain Marvel on the horizon, as well as Ant-Man and the Wasp. Meanwhile, DC’s Wonder Woman remains the biggest superhero release of 2017, beating out Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Logan. So now seems as good a time as any to give a Black Widow film the official green light.
