Pretty much every film fan on Earth agrees that a Black Widow solo movie from Marvel Studios would make some serious bank at the box office — and that includes Captain America himself, Chris Evans.

The actor was asked by Elle why that hasn't happened yet, and he responded:

   “That’s a good question. It would really just clean up, wouldn’t it? Scarlett [Johansson] is so good at everything she does. She’s played such a crucial part in the other films. She always makes her presence so felt — even when there are 50 different superheroes running around onscreen. I wouldn’t be surprised if that happens at some point in the future. I’m sure Scarlett would be open to it.”

Now, granted, just because a movie would obviously pull in a lot of money doesn't mean that should be the sole reason it gets made. But with the talented writers Marvel has access to, and considering how long fans have been clamoring for a Widow movie, it's starting to look like Kevin Feige and the studio are actively avoiding it rather than it just not organically working out. We'll see if the film is finally announced sometime in the next Phase of movies.

I'm of the take it or leave it thinking, I'm not a overly huge fan of the character really, if they made a solo film I'd probably watch it and if it happened to be good I'd probably buy it.

However if they don't it will not occupy any of my brains processing power on a mission to solve the mystery as to why.

lol Good point, fellas!

I would have voted in the poll, but, once again, no answers suited me. No, "If they make it, I will watch it."

I guess an origin storyline would work. Black Widow's origin has been hinted at and it would be interesting to see how she came over to the good side. Maybe include a Nick Fury origin or involvement as well as they were linked together in the earlier Iron Man movies.

That would be cool. Maybe a younger version of Fury?
