REVIEW
Black Widow is a superhero film based on the Marvel Comics comic book Black Widow that was released on July 9, 2021. It is the twenty-fourth Marvel Cinematic Universe superhero film produced by Marvel Studios. Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh, David Harbor, O. T. Fagbenle, Ray Winstone, and Rachel Weisz star in Cate Shortland’s film, which was shot in Hungary, Norway, and the United Kingdom.
Lionsgate began developing a Black Widow film in April 2004, with David Hayter as the director. By June 2006, the project had been shelved, and the character’s movie rights had been returned to Marvel Studios. With Iron Man 2, Johansson has appeared in numerous MCU films (2010). Before Schaeffer and Shortland were hired in 2018, Marvel and Johansson had shown interest in a solo feature numerous times over the years.
