Scarlett Johannson will have a major role in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Black Widow was introduced in Iron Man 2, kicked butt in Marvel’s The Avengers and will now join the action in the Cap sequel! Writer Christopher Markus told Collider how the SHIELD operative makes a foil for Steve Rogers:

“[Black Widow is] a great—both in attitude and in profession—a great contrast to Steve Rogers.  She’s incredibly modern, not very reverent, and just very straightforward whereas Steve is, you know a man from the 40s.  He’s not a boy scout, but he is reserved and has a moral center, whereas her moral center moves.”

Sebastian Stan reprises his role as Bucky Barnes in the sequel. The story is based on Ed Brubaker’s first Captain America arc. With Black Widow playing a significant role could this mean the start of a Natasha/Bucky on screen romance? The fan-favorite couple co-starred in a Winter Soldier comic book spinoff series by Brubaker.

I would definitely welcome a movie based on the first two arcs of that series starring Marvel’s hottest spies in love!
