Following the release of Black Widow in July 2021, fans of Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff have been curious about whether or not they will see another solo film for the superspy and iconic Avenger.
Here’s all the Black Widow 2 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a Black Widow 2 release date?
Black Widow 2, does not have an official release date. This is because it is very unlikely to happen.
This is because Natasha Romanoff is dead in the current MCU timeline, which has killed all possible avenues for future stories involving the character. Moreover, Scarlett Johansson, the actress who played Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow in the MCU, squashed fans’ hopes for her to return as the character by stating that her time playing the character was over, in a recent episode of The Goop Podcast, hosted by fellow MCU alum and actress, Gwyneth Paltrow.
However, if Black Widow 2 were to happen in the future, it would not be with Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff but instead, Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova. The character has been received well by both fans and critics, who have stated they want to see more of her. This is because both Black Widow and the 2021 Hawkeye series set up Belova as the primary Black Widow of the present MCU timeline, with the set-up expected to continue in 2024’s Thunderbolts.
Black Widow’s cast includes Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh, David Harbour, O-T-Fagbenle, Rachel Weisz, Olga Kurylenko, and Ray Winstone, among other cast members.
Where is Black Widow 2 coming out?
Black Widow 2 isn’t confirmed to release in theaters.
The official synopsis for Black Widow reads:
“Natasha Romanoff, also known as Black Widow, confronts the darker parts of her ledger when a dangerous conspiracy with ties to her past arises. Pursued by a force that will stop at nothing to bring her down, Natasha must deal with her history as a spy and the broken relationships left in her wake long before she became an Avenger.”
