Black Widow Movie Begins With The Character "In Crisis"

One of the most-anticipated 2020 Marvel movies is the standalone Black Widow film starring Scarlett Johansson. Little is known about the story, but now Johansson has shared some details about what to the expect from the superhero movie.

Speaking to Vanity Fair, Johansson said Black Widow will begin with the character facing some kind of "crisis." No other details are known, but Johansson added that Black Widow's personal journey in the movie will see her overcoming this struggle and becoming a "more grounded, self-possessed person." She also said some of the themes of the film are self-forgiveness and family.

"We just wrapped Black Widow like two weeks ago or something like that, so it's very fresh in my mind," she said. "I don't have a total perspective on it yet but it's a film about self-forgiveness and it's a film about family. I think in life we sort of come of age many times in your life and have these moments where you're kind of in a transitional phase and then you move beyond it, and I think in the Black Widow standalone film, I think the character when we find her is in a moment of real crisis."

"And throughout the film by facing herself in a lot of ways and all the things that make her her, she actually kind of comes through that crisis on the other side and is able to sort of reset into a space where she's a more grounded, self-possessed person," she added. "That's her journey. Well, I hope anyway."

This is not the first time that Johansson has spoken about the standalone Black Widow movie. She previously discussed how Black Widow is a "gritty and multi-dimensional" character who "has a lot of trauma and has led an unexamined life."

Black Widow comes to theatres on May 1, 2020. It also stars David Harbour (Stranger Things, Revolutionary Road), Florence Pugh (Midsommar, Little Women), Rachel Weisz (The Constant Gardener, About a Boy), and Ray Winstone (The Departed, Cold Mountain). It's directed by Cate Shortland (Lore, Somersault), with a script by Jac Schaeffer (Olaf's Frozen Adventure, Captain Marvel) and Ned Benson (The Westerner, The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby).
