David Harbour’s Hilarious Tease About Black Widow’s Return Leaves Scarlett Johansson Speechless!

Scarlett Johansson, who last played Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow several years ago, is frequently questioned about returning to the role in future Marvel films. However, Johansson has consistently expressed her reluctance to reprise the beloved character. Recently, David Harbour playfully hinted at Romanoff being a “secret character” in Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars, prompting a witty response from Johansson.

In an engaging chat with Interview Magazine, the stars of “Black Widow,” Scarlett Johansson and David Harbour, discussed various topics including “Thunderbolts” and more. As their discussion progressed, they touched upon the upcoming “Avengers” films, with filming for the first one happening currently in the UK. Johansson casually mentioned this, since some of her old friends like Chris Hemsworth and Robert Downey Jr. are working on it at present. In jest, Harbour hinted that he was still holding onto secrets despite no longer being under contract, to which he added a humorous remark.

Well, Scarlett, I can’t help but feel like we’ve unraveled a cinematic secret here. It seems everyone’s in agreement – you, the enigmatic character, are not as gone as it appears. As for Black Widow, well, we’re all banking on her resurrection, aren’t we? After all, death is just another chapter in the grand book of cinema.

In the movie Avengers: Endgame (available for streaming with a Disney+ subscription), Black Widow meets a tragic end. After a selfless act on planet Vormir, she sacrifices herself so that her fellow Avengers can retrieve the Soul Stone. Despite their success in their mission, they lose Natasha, a dear friend and colleague to them. Scarlett Johansson’s response to this heart-wrenching event was truly touching.

To be frank, I hold high regard for an actor who values consistency, and I totally agree with her sentiments. It’s tricky to quantify the potential repercussions if Romanoff’s demise were undone. The entire universe might need to go through another catastrophe similar to her sacrifice, which is a scary thought indeed. Yet, on a lighter note, it’s amusing to see an Oscar nominee quoting Marvel Cinematic Universe trivia as if we were fans discussing our favorite superheroes!

Scarlett Johansson’s dedication to Black Widow’s journey is commendable, given that many fans hope for her character’s comeback. Though she misses her co-stars on set, Johansson acknowledges that her character’s story has reached its conclusion. However, there are other means by which Natasha Romanoff could reappear. Marvel is exploring the multiverse currently, and it’s possible that a different version of Black Widow might pop up in future Avengers films.

As a devoted fan, it appears Scarlett Johansson isn’t planning to put on her iconic black leather suit and stingers any time soon. Despite this, I anticipate she’ll continue to face queries and comments – whether they’re thought-provoking or lighthearted like David Harbour’s. If such a scenario arises, I can imagine Johansson gracefully addressing the finer points of Endgame as required.

Regardless of anything else, “Avengers: Doomsday” is set to hit theaters on December 18, 2026, and “Avengers: Secret Wars” will be released a year later, on December 17, 2027.
