Black Widow: 6 MCU films to watch while you wait for its release
5. Avengers: Endgame
Yeah, this one might be a little tough to deal with. After all, we lost so many heroes in Endgame. While many of the Avengers received the understandable and well-deserved glory, the unsung hero was Natasha a.k.a. Black Widow. The film picks up five years after the SNAP with Natasha as the leader she’s always been… the glue holding the original Avengers together.
Everything changed when Hawkeye and Black Widow took a trip to Vormir to retrieve the Soul Stone. As we’ve learned from Thanos’ trip, there has to be a sacrifice. Now, if you haven’t grabbed your popcorn and saw this film yet. Let’s just say, you won’t be disappointed. Black Widow is the hero in every sense of the word. She’s someone willing to do what’s necessary and should be on the Mount Rushmore of Avengers — it’s like that.
Avengers Endgame is at the epicenter of Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow in a timeline that will never be forgotten. Here we are full circle as we finally get to her story told in a prequels set before the events of Endgame.
You can’t watch Black Widow without understanding what she meant to the Avengers and the MCU. In Avengers Endgame we get to see the best of Black Widow and what lengths she is willing to go in order to save a universe.
Hopefully the Black Widow name will live on in the MCU well after the upcoming solo movie.
