It's taken 10 years for Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff to get a standalone film, but Black Widow is finally here, and we're ready to dive into the tangled web kicking off Marvel's Phase Four.
The last time we saw the red-haired assassin, she was sacrificing her life for the Avengers' mission in Avengers: Endgame, so you're probably confused about where Black Widow fits in the grand scheme of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Simply put, the film is a prequel that takes place before Natasha's unfortunate demise. So no, unless Marvel Studios decides to pull a very unexpected switcheroo, Black Widow won't feature Natasha's resurrection.
