Not that the film couldn’t have been much clearer, but it looks like Black Widow absolutely, 100% did not survive Avengers: Endgame.

 

After 9 years of being a badass onscreen heroics, the ferocious, redheaded mercenary sacrificed herself in the pursuit of of the Soul Stone, much to our’s and Hawkeye’s dismay. But after nearly a decade of appearing in ensemble movies alongside other Avengers, she now gets to headline her own solo flick.

 

Of course, this upcoming film, directed by Cate Shortland, will be heading back to the past – you know, because she’s dead. And in it, we’ll be introduced to several of the key players in Natasha Romanoff’s life, including David Harbour’s Red Guardian, Midsommar’s Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, and Rachel Weisz’s Melina, among others.

 

Even though the untitled movie – which will be taking place between the events of Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War – is clearly about bygone events, there are some who believe that the film will tell us that Black Widow isn’t really dead.

 

Well, Scarlett Johansson has now shut those theorists down.

 

While doing promotional interviews for Taika Waititi’s JoJo Rabbit the 34-year-old actress stopped by The Tonight Show. And in doing so, she confirmed, for an absolute fact, that her trademark character is really dead.
