Black Widow: 5 burning questions fans need answers to
By Mark Lynch
Now that Black Widow has finally been released, here are five questions fans fans need to know.
After what seems like forever, Black Widow has finally been released. This writer half expected another delay due to some other shenanigans but thankfully, he was wrong. The movie performed incredibly well over its opening weekend, bringing in $39 million domestically on the Friday alone.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe movie ended with a lot of questions that need to be answered. More than a few of them involved the future of the Black Widow mantle. For example, what will happen to the Black Widow name? In Marvel Comics, Yelena is going by White Widow. However, in the past, she’s been called Black Widow.
But that’s just one of the many. Here are five questions that we absolutely need answers to.
***WARNING!!!!! THERE BE SPOLIERS AHEAD***
5. Will Black Widow return?
Natasha Romanoff sacrificed her life in Avengers: Endgame to get Clint Barton the Soul Stone. A moment that left people stunned and saddened, her selfless sacrifice made it seem unlikely that she will return. That is, unless you’re a comic book fan. If you are, you know that death is usually temporary. But will the MCU reflect that comic book trope?
There are a few ways to bring Black Widow back. There are also some ideas that seem wacky to us, but make sense in relation to the silliness we’ve seen in comics. Regardless of how it happens, though, we need to know if it will happen.
It would be nice to see her return. Given the character’s popularity and the success of the movie, don’t be shocked if it happens sooner rather than later.
