Scarlett Johanssen will be playing her Marvel character once more in the movie aptly named: Black Widow. The movie is set to release in May of 2020, and the movie is rumored to take place shortly after "Captain America: Civil War." The movie will even star David Harbour, as seen as a policeman of Hawkins, Indiana, Jim Hopper in the critically acclaimed Stranger Things. It is stated that this movie will delve into the past of Black Widow and the other characters starring in the Movie, but only a bit of this is shown in the trailer. Rachel Weisz, who is also starring in the movie, states that "There's three really beautifully written complicated female narratives, which is very unusual in a superhero movie." So, this movie could very well be a step in the right direction for Women's representation in movies.
Question 1:
Are you excited for an added layer of depth to Black Widow, or are you not a fan of Marvel?
I am a bit of a fan of Marvel so I am excited to see them fleshing out their characters even after Infinity War.
Do you enjoy the idea that this movie will have multiple, complex female narratives or do you find it to be more leaning towards forced inclusion?
I think this will be a good point for the movie, we don't really have these in mainstream superhero movies so considering that this is Marvel, we could get something really great out of this.

I do not care if the inclusion is forced, as long as it is there in Marvel there haven't been a lot of female superhero movies. I am happy to see that not only one beautiful woman is getting represented, but 3.
Yes, I am so proud of my baby, I hope she blossoms like a flower and grows from this. She is a great person and I love her character. I love Marvel more than I love some of my family members. My cat's name is Tony, after Tony Stark.
I have never heard of Marvel so I dont really care but I know some people that are big fans and they willl be very exited. I think that is cool and maybe more people will go watch the mobvie because there will be both genders.
I am kind of a fan of marvel. It depends on the movie for me. I only like a couple of them. I agree with you with the second question. It'll do good for quite a few things.
I dont know how it would be if a female did it becasue most of the movies are lead by guys so i really dont know. But if a female dose it might still be good i just dont know how good it would be but they might just try it.
Im have like the last one they made so i really dont know if i would go to the next one unless it about something that i like but if it not about anything i like i would not wast my time and go see it i have better then to do then go watch it.
I am very excited for a Black Widow movie since she has a very intresting past. I hope they dive into her past a little bit with this movie. I mean, having wmen as leads in movies shows how they are included. Sometimes it can be overboard with how often they put women in to please the audience.
I am very excited for the black widow movie because I am a big marvel fan. I feel like it might be a lot more background information more than like a whole new story so I think it could be kind of confusing if you have not seen any marvel movies but maybe not. I think it will be good to have multiple complex female narratives.
I like a lot of the Marvel movies, but I have never really been into the Black Widow. I may possibly be interested in watching it though. I think it is really cool that the main character of the movie is a woman but I wasn't really completely focused on that. I am all for women figures doing something cool like this. I am now excited to see how this movie turns out!
I have never really been insterested in Marvel movies but I actually want to see. I mostly want to go see Black Widow because of the female lead, Scarlett Johanssen. I do enjoy the idea that multiple female narratives will be present in this movie.
