Marvel Studios has set a May 1, 2020 release date for its standalone Scarlett Johansson superhero pic, Black Widow. Set prior to the events of 2012’s The Avengers, the spinoff depicts Natasha Romanoff’s rise from troubled, sexy Soviet spy to sexy and righteous superhero.

Johansson said:

I get to play Natahsa as a fully realized woman and in all of her many facets. I’m excited for fans to see the flawed side of her, what she perceives to be the flawed side of her.

Co-starring alongside Johansson are David Harbour (“Stranger Things”), O-T Fagbenle (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), Rachel Weisz (The Mummy), and Florence Pugh (Midsommar), who plays Black Widow nemesis-turned-ally and Black Widow successor Yelena Belova.

Cate Shortland, the Aussie director behind the suspenseful Teresa Palmer abduction thriller The Berlin Syndrome, is at the helm.
