New Black Widow Trailer - July 2021

I was hoping the success of Godzilla would bring movies back to theaters. We have been waiting for this one for years.

Finally! After years of waiting and cancelations, Black Widow was finally released! And I was pleasantly surprised. Probably Scarlett Johanson's swan song for the character. It is partially an origin story. The Russian Communists create a family in 1987 Ohio to steal secrets from the US. After three years, they have to escape to Cuba and are separated. The young girls are trained to be assasins, the father imprisoned, and the mother dies. The girls get back together to stop a ruthless super villain and somehow the family gets back together to finish him off. This movie takes place during "Civil War" and before Thanos. I think it was above average for the MCU. But remember to stay for the post-credits scene which sets up a new rivalry.

I think the decision was made (last swan song) because she was/is pregnant and now has a child.
