Is the Black Widow movie rumors real? ***Spoiler**
If they are, how are they going to bring her back to life?
shareIt will be a prequel movie with a different actress. Currently they are still acting as if Scarlett Johansson will play the character but the movie is actually in development hell.
shareOr someone will travel to an alternate timeline and bring her back , probably a different version of her
shareSo Scarlett is done? I thought she was still going to do the solo movie.
shareLucy and Ghost in the Shell proved that Johansson can't handle a lead role.
I think a Black Widow movie starring Scarlett Johansson would eventually get cancelled, if not already.
? Both proved she's more than able. But the movie is troubled.
shareShe's not a very good actress, and her Black Widow hasn't been written as a very interesting person. She's mainly functioned as a foil for more important characters, and as eye candy.
And Marvel doesn't want to keep paying her movie-star bucks for that. You could predict a lot of the deaths and endings in "Endgame", according to who was getting paid how much and whose contract was coming to an end. Of course Downey was on the top of the list of actors getting paid an unholy fortune, because he got in on the ground floor, but Johanssen was there as well.
Johansson is a decent actress for an action star. I mean, Schwarzenegger and Stallone level.
Ever since I saw her in The Island (2005) I thought she would be a big action star. She is, and Hollywood producers thought so too, but turns out just not a lead role material. Which is hard to believe, actually. She got the look. Unique not generic beauty. She got the bod. However, like I said, Lucy and Ghost in the Shell proved that this is not as easy as it looks.
Even Daisy Ridley, a no name actress, out of nowhere, not as georgeous too, but she has the charm, she can actually be the leading star. Regardless of the movies quality, casting her is one of the most succesful thing Disney's Star Wars producers did.
Which brings us back to Black Widow movie. If she's so good, Disney wouldn't posponed it until today. It would've been produced and released right away after the smash hit Avengers movie. I mean, they had the chance to steal the title of first modern female superhero movie before Wonder Woman. But they didn't. Wonder why...
Also, Black Widow origin movie has already been made, starring J Law. It's called Red Sparrow. And it's a flop despite actually being quite good. So I really don't see how they could bring a Black Widow movie out now.
No. Scarlett IS playing the character in the Solo prequel. Where the hell have you seen otherwise? It will be a prequel movie with Scarlett. This is a fact.
