An international trailer for The Avengers features the Black Widow working her wiles on Bruce Banner.
Widow “You have to join.”
Banner “What if I say no?”
Widow “Then I will convince you to!”
Since Comic Book Movie did the translating from German here’s their great site link so you can see the trailer in German. There’s also footage of Captain American, Iron Man and Bruce Banner.
Earlier this month Scarlett Johansson talked about the Widow’s great story in The Avengers and her hopes for a solo movie.

With Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye and Nick Fury assembled for the big screen version of The Avengers how much will we see Black Widow?
“The Widow has a great story. I think Joss did a brilliant job of weaving together all of these characters storylines. It is no small feat for him.” Scarlett Johansson told MTV News.
“I love the Widow. I think she’s got an interesting journey,” the actress continued, “We get gritty. We get real gritty in this.”

Earlier Scarlett Johansson said she was ready for a Black Widow solo movie given the Widow’s history. Johansson said there’s no word yet on if she will be part of Iron Man #3.
The Black Widow goes solo in Secret Avengers #20. Writer Warren Ellis weaves a tale in which her teammates are dead and Natasha is trapped in the past with the chance to save them.

Scarlett Johansson returns as Black Widow in The Avengers movie in May, 2012 and says she’s ready to go back in black for a solo movie.
“I love playing the Widow. I think she’s got a very interesting past, a lot of storylines to explore, and certainly Kevin (Feige) loves that character,” she told us when asked about a possible spin-off. “I think that Marvel has a very personal relationship with their fans, and I think if the fans want it, and the audience wants it, nothing’s impossible. I would love to explore that option as well. Like I said, I love the character and it would be nice to see something nice and gritty” Johansson told SuperHeroHype.

Black Widow is a KGB assassin turned SHIELD operative and quickly became Nick Fury’s top field agent. Natasha has been with the Avengers, Champions, Defenders, Thunderbolts and Secret Avengers – that resume alone makes her character worthy of solo screen time.
Natasha has quite a love life with romantic partnerships with Iron Man, Hawkeye, Daredevil and Bucky Barnes (the former Captain America and Winter Soldier.)
A possible enemy for a Black Widow solo movie would be Yelena Belova – the second Black Widow. Yelena followed the same path as Natasha until an attack left her disfigured. She was then recruited by the modern day Hydra (Red Skull’s criminal group from the Captain America movie) and given super powers.

No word on if Scarlett Johansson will appear in Iron Man 3. I’m hoping Captain America 2 will be set in the modern day and be based on the Winter Soldier epic which prominently features Black Widow working with Steve Rogers and eventually falling for the back from the dead Bucky. Natasha and Bucky have the best chemistry. Both are deadly, hot and thankfully good guys now.
What do you think? Black Widow solo? Black Widow in Iron Man 3 or Captain America 2?
