Where will we see some of our favorites return?

Apparently, Scarlet Johansson he agreed to return as the Black Widow of the MCU… just not in Avengers 5. We will instead see her alongside Captain America Chris Evans in Avengers: Secret Wars.

In related news, the scooper also reiterated previous claims that Hugh Jackman told Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige that he would be willing to play Wolverine in Avengers: Secret Wars, as long as he Robert Downey Jr. and Tobey Maguire join him as Iron Man and Spider-Man. We’d be shocked if that didn’t happen, and it seems likely that Secret Wars will be the film where we say goodbye to many characters.

“I’m sad, of course” Johansson said of the end of her time as Black Widow.”I’ve absolutely loved every film experience I’ve had, working 10 years with Marvel and that incredible cast, and I love the character of Natasha“.

When asked if the Multiverse could open the door to a surprise return for Natasha Romanoff, the actress responded: “Like a cop-out? I feel like that’s kind of the end, right? Can we go back? Could be a vampire version of the character? Because that’s why I’m here, like a zombie version, maybe“.

“It would be a true Marvel miracle“, he added. “That would be wonderful, but who knows? I’m not sure…“. Avengers 5 is currently scheduled to hit theaters onMay 1, 2026while Avengers: Secret Wars the May 7, 2027.
