Behind the name

Meet Natasha Romanoff

Look beyond the cover story

Watch what Natasha chooses to reveal, and to whom. In ensemble scenes, her questions and silences can be as revealing as the action. Following that thread gives the quieter exchanges room to matter without needing to know later revelations in advance.

Your first watch

Where to start

For a first viewing, follow her early film appearances in release order: Iron Man 2, The Avengers, then The Winter Soldier. Save Black Widow for a later visit through the film guide; a story set earlier can still assume familiarity with later releases.
