Black Widow is a 2021 American superhero film based on Marvel Comics featuring the character of the same name. Produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, it is the 24th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The film was directed by Cate Shortland from a screenplay by Eric Pearson, and stars Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow alongside Florence Pugh, David Harbour, O-T Fagbenle, Olga Kurylenko, William Hurt, Ray Winstone, and Rachel Weisz. Set after the events of Captain America: Civil War (2016), the film sees Romanoff on the run and forced to confront a conspiracy tied to her past.
Development of a Black Widow film began in April 2004 by Lionsgate, with David Hayter attached to write and direct. The project did not move forward and the character s film rights reverted to Marvel Studios by June 2006. Johansson was cast in the role for several MCU films beginning with Iron Man 2 (2010), and began discussing a solo film with Marvel. Work began in late 2017, with Shortland hired in 2018. Jac Schaeffer and Ned Benson contributed to the script before Pearson was hired. Filming took place from May to October 2019 in Norway, Budapest, Morocco, Pinewood Studios in England, and in Atlanta and Macon, Georgia.
Having been delayed three times from an original May 2020 release date due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Widow premiered on June 29, 2021 at various events around the world, and was released in the United States on July 9 simultaneously in theaters and through Disney+ with Premier Access. The first film in Phase Four of the MCU, the film received generally positive reviews from critics, with praise for the performances and action sequences.

In 1995, four Russian undercover agents pose as a normal family in Ohio: super-soldier Alexei Shostakov, known as the Red Guardian, former Black Widow Melina Vostokoff, and their surrogate daughters Natasha Romanoff and Yelena Belova, the latter so young that she is unaware that their family unit is a masquerade. When Shostakov completes his assigned mission to steal intel from S.H.I.E.L.D., the family escapes to Cuba and rendezvous with their boss Dreykov, who has Romanoff and Belova put through the Red Room for further training to become assassins. Years pass, and Romanoff defects to S.H.I.E.L.D., believing Dreykov to be dead after bombing his offices and killing his daughter Antonia in the process.
In 2016, following the battle between the Avengers at Leipzig/Halle Airport,[N 1] Romanoff is a fugitive from the government for violating the Sokovia Accords. She escapes from U.S. Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross and flees to a safehouse in Norway where she reunites with her contact Rick Mason. Meanwhile, in Morocco, Belova is still working for the Red Room, where she kills a former Black Widow, only to come in contact with a substance called Red Dust that removes the Red Room s control of her. She sends the antidote to Romanoff s safe house in the hopes that she will return to help her.
As Romanoff unknowingly drives off with the antidote, she is attacked by Taskmaster, who is after the Red Dust. Romanoff manages to evade Taskmaster and learns that the Dust came from Belova. The two reunite in Budapest but are then attacked by Black Widows. While escaping, Romanoff learns that Dreykov is still alive and the Red Room is still active. Romanoff and Belova evade Taskmaster and meet back up with Mason, who supplies them with an aircraft.
Romanoff and Belova break Shostakov out of prison to learn where Dreykov is, and he tells them that they need to speak with Vostokoff, who has been living on a farm in Russia, where she developed the mind control process used on the Widows. Belova reveals that while they were not a real family, she still wanted to believe that they were so, while Shostakov and Vostokoff admit that they too wished they were a real family. Vostokoff gives away their location to Dreykov, whose agents arrive and take them away to the Red Room, which is located on an aerial base.
As Dreykov congratulates Vostokoff on finding them, it is revealed Vostokoff and Romanoff used face mask technology to switch places at the farm, having planned their own capture. Romanoff learns Taskmaster is Antonia, who had suffered damage so severe that Dreykov was forced to put a chip in her head to help her, turning her into the perfect soldier. Romanoff also discovers she cannot harm Dreykov due to a pheromone lock he installed in every Widow and that he has been controlling Widows all around the world via his control desk. After goading Dreykov into punching her in the face, Romanoff intentionally severs a nerve in her nasal passage to negate the pheromone and allow herself to attack Dreykov.
Vostokoff attempts to take out the ship s engine while Shostakov battles Antonia and Belova searches for the other Widows who are sent to protect Dreykov. Dreykov escapes as the Widows gang up on Romanoff, but Belova creates a Red Dust bomb that releases the Widows from mind control. Romanoff gets into the control desk and copies the locations of the other Widows worldwide to a portable drive just as the ship begins to explode and fall. Before leaving the control room, she picks up two vials of Red Dust that survived Belova s bomb. Vostokoff and Shostakov escape the ship via aircraft just as Belova takes out Dreykov s escape ship, killing him.
Romanoff gives Belova a parachute as she and Antonia have one final battle through the sky before safely landing on the ground. Romanoff uses one vial of Red Dust on Antonia, freeing her from servitude. The rest of the Widows arrive as Belova, Vostokoff, and Shostakov say goodbye to Romanoff, with Belova giving Romanoff her vest to remember her by and Romanoff giving Belova the last Red Dust vial and the portable drive, telling her to find and free the other Widows. As they leave along with a recovering Antonia, Romanoff awaits the arrival of Ross and his men. Two weeks later, Romanoff, now sporting blond hair, reunites with Mason, who has supplied her with a quinjet, before riding off to free the detained Avengers from the Raft.
In a post-credits scene set after Romanoff s death,[N 2] Belova encounters Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, now her handler, at Romanoff s grave, and receives her next assignment: take down Clint Barton, the man "responsible" for Romanoff s death.
