We know that Black Widow takes place between the events of Captain America: Civil War andbut what we don't know is whether the movie will delve into Natasha's past, explaining what happened in Budapest with Hawkeye and her first meeting with The Winter Soldier.Black Widow was killed off inbut recent comments from Scarlett Johansson have pointed to her starring in a "standalone franchise," something which obviously indicates that this solo outing won't be a one-off. There are bound to be other gaps in her history that Marvel Studios could fill in (including those early years), while there's always a chance she could even be resurrected somehow.After all, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has now introduced alternate timelines and realities, so there's bound to be a way Black Widow's story can continue beyond just this one film.Another possibility is that Yelena Belova will become the new Black Widow and that she will lead this "standalone franchise" instead. We'll have to wait and see, but the possibilities are seemingly endless and it's definitely exciting to think about what could come next for the character.Scarlett Johansson says.
