Latrodectus mactans, the first-class honours degree solo jaunt for Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff, has finally arrived. But the biggest question you probably let now is whether this will be Natasha's only solo outing. Patc the character sacrificed herself in Avengers: Endgame, that doesn't needfully mean there's no manner for her to daddy up again in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Another, Sir Thomas More likely, possibility is that Florence Pugh's Yelena Belova testament take on the Black Widow woman mantle in potential future films, continuing Natasha's legacy herself.

We've rounded up what we know about a potentiality sequel to Black Widow woman, and looked at what the sequel, if it happens, could be just about. Scroll on to discover out what might follow next for Disgraceful Widow woman in the MCU.

Is Joseph Black Widow 2 natural event?

Nix prescribed has been declared meet yet, and by all accounts Latrodectus mactans appears to be a standalone. The Latrodectus mactans post-credits scene sets Yelena upwardly to chase away Hawkeye, which makes sense, as her side by side appearance in the MCU will be in the archer's Walter Elias Disney Plus serial.

However, the movie did leave a Major door open for potential follow-ups, though. The freed Widows, Taskmaster, Red Guardian, Melina, and Yelena each head off together at the end of the film, with the delegac of rescuing the other Non-white Widows crosswise the world after Dreykov revealed to Natasha the extent of the Crimson Elbow room's influence.

If there was a sequel, IT would likely pick up this plot thread. Melina was tasked with replicating the anti-mind check formula, indeed she'd probably make up involved, and we can't imagine Red Guardian or Taskmaster would constitute left out, either. If Johansson doesn't return to the MCU, then Pugh's Yelena seems the most likely candidate to booster cable the movies going forward.

What has been said virtually Latrodectus mactans 2?

When our sister publication Total Film asked Johansson more or less passing the mantle happening to Pugh, she replied: "I decidedly felt that agency from the selfsame beginning." She added of Yelena: "She stands altogether on her possess. She's strong and different. She's so different to Natasha."

As for whether we'll construe with Yelena again, Pugh answered: "If you get asked to be in a Marvel pic, and information technology was thusly thrilling and amusive and exciting to be in, and then naturally, your head goes: 'OH my Deity. If this is what it's like, then what else is next?'" According to her, it whol depends on Yelena's popularity. "If that happens and I am lucky enough that people appreciate my fibre, that's an exciting road to go on. I would be silly to not be excited by it. I think that being part of the Wonder ball club is a great honor. But we'll just see if people like Yelena first."

Managing director Cate Shortland told RadioTimes.com that she thinks a continuation "following a different character" is possible. "I think Scarlett is really happy that she's leaving the party, you know, and she's not the last to leave. She decided she wanted to give out. And I don't think she would desire to come back at the moment," she added. But she wouldn't say anything about plans for Yelena: "My focus was on Black Widow, and what the characters are doing within our story. So I wasn't focused on Firenze outside of that."

A potency watch-up could be helmed away Shortland once again, likewise. "I mean, all the beautiful fights and the spectacle, and I think just creating something in truth diverting and joyous is pretty habit-forming," the theater director same of whether she would return. "Thus yeah, I would do it again. Yes."

On Johansson's part, she's stood firm on not reversive to Natasha. "I truly am halcyon with the work I accomplished in my last decade-plus at Marvel. I feeling like I'm going away out on a high note with a movie I'm incredibly proud of," she told Variety. "I feeling like my work with Natasha is complete, if that is so much a thing. I've explored many facets of her mortal, and feel that her choice to sacrifice her life for her unsurpassable friends was same that she made actively and with resolve."

So, there you have it. A follow-up is possible… but not with Natasha. While that's melancholy news, it's a plus that we might be beholding Yelena over again, who seems poised to become a fan favorite. She just has some business to settle with Hawkeye first…
