Whedon sucks at directing (come at me Whedon Fanboys)..that being said, She proved she can draw with "Lucy". So..id be for it but I (and probably Marvel after AOU) would prefer a different director.

I'd much rather she got whoever directed Winter Soldier. They got a MUCH better performance out of her than the two Avengers films, in my opinion.

Honestly despite what that article that the OP posted says I have zero interest in seeing a solo Black Widow film.

If Wonder Woman does well (and I hope it does, for its own sake) I suspect we'll see this greenlit. I'm certain there's a few execs in place fighting this for the same ol' sad reasons....
Interesting how DC is on the ball re: solo female superhero endeavors, and Marvel......isn't just yet.

I remember hearing one of the reasons it's not (and it's kinda silly but I also kinda get it) is that Black Widow doesn't wear a mask... and they can't (or it's much harder to) do the fake it thing like with Iron Man where someone else is in the suit for x number of days which saves them a ton of money. If Wonder Woman does well (and I hope it does, for its own sake) I suspect we'll see this greenlit. I'm certain there's a few execs in place fighting this for the same ol' sad reasons.... Interesting how DC is on the ball re: solo female superhero endeavors, and Marvel......isn't just yet. Marvel has had the Captain Marvel movie in production while DC was still going off on how unrealistic Wonder Woman would be and how no one would buy it. Though that was one of the problems Feige had with Perlmutter which led to Marvel Studios breaking up... he had to fight to get that on the schedule at all, despite Carol being on of their popular characters (not to mention being pretty important to the backstory if they want to use one of their most popular new characters in Kamala Khan.)

There's basically no chance I'd ever watch a Black Widow movie. They probably should make one since they've built up name value for the character plenty by now and it's jarring that they haven't, but I find her a complete mess of a character whose most consistent attribute is that she's boring.

A spy prequel with her and Hawkeye seems like the easiest screenplay to knock out.
Makes no sense not to.
End with them meeting Fury.

Interesting how DC is on the ball re: solo female superhero endeavors, and Marvel......isn't just yet. Wonder Woman is the most well known female superhero, with global recognition, and has powers. Black widow is a side character badass normal, to be fair she is a great part of the movies. Now sure, I'd be interested in seeing the movie, but from a draw standpoint you can't compare the two.

Well passed the release of Guardians of the Galaxy and Marvel's announcement of the Captain Marvel movie.

If it means Scarlett donning the suit again, I'm all for it.

YES I WENT THERE ..... she's behind me isn't she OH COME ON when watching IRON MAN 2 you weren't wondering what her bloody typing speed was!!! hell, if they can flesh out agent coulsen fantastically well, why not her? and yeah, delving into her past would be a great idea ..... as for LUCY i thought it WASN'T fleshed out that well, and deserved a lot longer that the running time was!

I wouldn't want Wheadon doing it, I didnot like how he approached her character in Age of Ultron but I felt like in general that movie had a lot of problems. Like doing Ultimates Clint when no one really wanted him and it makes no sense that his family is the only one apparently in all of SHIELD to be kept off the books just to explain why there wouldn't be any fall out for them after Winter Soldier and having the Banner Natasha stuff which made no damn sense.

I agree she was much better handled in Civil War and Winter Soldier.

I don't really believe that because Thor, Doctor Strange, The Guardians (it takes hours to paint Zoe and Batista so they put in tons of hours), and Captain America (I know cowl) but not CGI like Iron Man Suit or Spiderman). Plus it's a lot easier to fake a stunt double with Black Widow because you just need a girl with a similar build and long brown hair that sways around covering most of her face and her moveset requires a lot less CGI and wires than Thor or Captain America. My guess it's a harder MCU film to market especially to the kids because it wouldn't really be a superhero film but a spy film. Like the only way you can really make a Black Widow film is her breaking in Hydra Headquarters or searching for Hydra members and it turns into a spy conspiracy espionage film. Yes that was what Winter Solider was but it had Captain America and Winter Solider destroying shit up. Like there wouldn't really be any super powers, fancy costumes, space exploration, and such. And if she does have a foe with super powers that's her equal to face, it wouldn't be something cool like it would be a less powerful version of Whiplash or something.

It is silly because it would probably be one of the lowest budgeted Marvel movies unless Scarlette wants a big heavy paycheque and it'll make money because it's Marvel. Not mega money but enough to make a profit. Unless they continue to get lucky and release in a dull movie season where there was nothing to watch before it's release and after its release like what happened with Guardians or Doctor Strange. And those movies were huge higher financial risks.

I just do not see it happening at this point. It would of been nice to have a origin story for her but in that sense they could of just thrown her and Hawkeye together to combine for a movie. Her character has been fleshed out well enough and only chance of her having a movie now is through a team up.
At this point just have her continuing to appear in other movies. Ant Man could be a destination for her.

A solo BW movie is possible. Just base it off the Edmonson/Noto run from a couple of years back, which was incredibly cinematic. Or Marvel could do a BW/Hawkeye movie. Maybe Marvel could kill off Steve and do a BW/Bucky movie. Unfortunately, because of the movie and TV divisions, we'll never see BW interact with Daredevil.
