Meet Natasha Romanoff
Natasha Romanoff is the spy known as Black Widow, played by Scarlett Johansson. Her solo film turns toward the dangerous history and damaged relationships that preceded her life as an Avenger, bringing a personal dimension to a character often seen working within a team.
Official source · Disney Movies ↗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.

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.
