Scarlett Johansson Will Return as Black Widow in 'Iron Man 3'

Just give her a movie already, it can't be no worst than 'catwoman' & 'elektra'? or better than 'haywire' or 'salt'.

I think that is the reason why Widow is not getting her own movie, but is instead leaching off the others. Hell drop both her AND Hawkeye. The avengers would have been better if any time wasted on them were used were it actually mattered. Maybe then Cap Hulk & Thor would have gotten more time in Iron Man 2.5, i mean, the Iron Man's Avengers.

There's a new director for this movie why not now?

Also if Black Widow shows up in anything beyond a cameo then I'm going to make the irrational blanket statement that the movie will be just as bad as Iron Man 2...

Awesome can't wait for this movie to come out. I wonder who will be the villain for this movie. I wanna see Black Panther.

Yea! Avenger free Iron Man 3 at least until they change their minds next week.An Iron Man/War Machine centered plot would really rock and give us longer fight scenes against whoever. Which was my only complaint about the last one.For the Luva God no Mandarin or Namor.Namor isn't being considered for this is he?

Definitely. Who'd they fight though? For something like that to happen, you'd need a pretty big threat.

Fin Fang Foom? A suped-up Ultimo?

Definitely Fin Fang Foom.

But a revamped and scarier version, like the one from that "Viva Las Vegas" comic.

I'd love to see them try to explain his origin, lol.

would be better if it was recast. emily blunt doing anything?

@venomoushatred1001: lol. No, I used the idiom because his career is dead. He's alive and well as far as I know.

I think that'd be pretty plausible. Just replace the bad guy from Extremis with Ezekiel Stane, work in the daddy issues and whatnot and credits, and you've got a blockbuster.

True. But given how that story worked, I think Tony would have to lose a fight in the first half, then upgrade to Extremis while War Machine fights Stane's goons publicly and Black Widow infiltrates Stane's operation in the middle, then come back as the new Iron Man with War Machine for a finale.

Actually the more I think about it, the more kickass this sounds.

There ya go. All I ask is for the fight scenes to not last less than 5 minutes. Seriously, of all the Marvel Studios movies, Iron Man has the least impact-full fight scenes.

I hear ya.

Do you think Rescue could work in a movie?

Because I think so.

Ehhhhhhh no thanks. Don't get me wrong, I think she's cool in the comics, but her, plus Iron Man, plus War Machine might be a bit much imo. I think that if she's gonna be in the movies, it's gotta be later on.

Oh yeah, I didn't mean in IM3. Probably IM4 or maybe a sequel to Avengers.

But you have to admit that seeing those three team up would be insane on screen.

I must be the only one who thinks the Extremis story arc would make a great Iron Man movie.

Because I'd love it if that was what Iron Man 3 was about.

Dude, you aren't. If this were to end the Iron Man movies (which I really hope isn't the case) the Extremist arc makes the most sense.

If I ever wanna see any part of the Iron Man mythos come on film, I totally wanna see the first arc of the recent Invincible Iron Man.

But that probably wouldn't work within the context of him just getting the first Extremis. Unless they merged and re-worked the stories.

Taking the opinions of people who would make that mistake into consideration is a waste of time.

Yeah, because that's what I was REALLY looking forward to in Iron Man 3.

imagine if they do the ultimate black widow thing, when she turn out to be a traitor

omg that would be AWESOME!

Mandarin PLEASE!!!

Have to appreciate the irony of having the trailer be in Slavic (Russian it sounded), with Black Widow's appearances and her speaking the lingo. I've always preferred Natalia to be Russian instead of the watered down American she is in the Iron Man/Avengers flicks.

I still can't stand Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, but whatever.

"Gwynth Paltrow is set to return asPepper Potts as is Don Cheadle as Rhodey (aka War Machine)."

Good.

"Gwynth Paltrow is set to return asPepper Potts as is Don Cheadle as Rhodey (aka War Machine)."

Oh no.

It makes perfect sense:

- Until/If after Avengers is released and becomes the biggest thing, currently the Iron Man franchise stands as the largest draw right now, and one could even argue that his character is one of the biggest pushes in advertising for the Avengers movie itself. In this viral day in age, everything is advanced in the news, naturally their going to push IM3 now.

- Most talent hired for Marvel superhero movies, no matter the production company, are immediately given a minimum three movie contract. Naturally again the go to film is going to be the one the character initially sold well enough in, in her case the Iron Man series.

What an horrible casting choice

Why? Her acting is consistently wooden. The way the second one went, and the way Avengers looks I'm really not that hopeful for Iron Man 3. It hangs on the villain. Ultimo, it should be.

Awesome news...great actress and SUPER hot! I'm super happy with all these Marvel Studio movies so far. A lot of fun!

Of course she is what the trailers focus on. Look at her!

Ha! No, it's just a joke I heard once upon a time. He's really gotta be steaming about the Ocean's 11 guy stealing his role!

i still dont appreciate Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, but hopefully that will change...Black Widow is one of my favorite females heroes...if she does come back for Iron Man 3 hopefully she'll have a bigger role...

my biggest disappointment is that War Machine isn't in Avengers, why is that again???

awesome!

@Omega Ray Jay said:

Interesting stuff

iam happy i like scarlett shes a sexy woman and shes great as bw.

Black Widow was the focus in the Russian Trailer because perhaps..she's..Russian. No? Represent.

I still love the Namor rumor

Brutal. The second worst part of Iron Man 2 was the whole overblown Black Widow fight scene at the end of it (the first being Jackson as himself as Nick Fury...GOD he is a terrible actor. If they were going to go ultimate Nick, it should have been Ving Rhames or Idris Elba). If they actually do a Black Widow movie, I'm sure it will be about the same as that abomination Elektra.

Hmmm...wouldn't expect her to survive the Avenger ordeal with those tiny pistols, but whatever.

I wouldn't have minded a few cameos.

Soooo is she Russian yet or what?

I am excited to see her in Iron Man 3. I liked her character a lot in Iron Man 2. One thing I really hope to see in Iron Man 3 is Pepper become Rescue

has anyone mentioned whether or not any of the original films supporting cast members would be appearing in Avengers like War Machine or Jane Foster or Betty Ross...not big roles but just cameos?

I hope she gets a better story than in Iron Man 2.

@Loki2u:

Actualy we did see her as black widow plenty in ironman 2

and she is curently a primary character in Winter Soldier and Secret Avengers and a background character in avengers and avengers assemble, and i beleive she will be getting another mini series titled somthing along the lines on Black Widow Stikes

shes reallllly hot on that pic!!!!!!
