Meh not so liking the idea of her as BW. I mean yeah shes got the boobs for it but BW is MUCH more than eye candy....well she works as eye candy but shes more

Better than that other chick who wanted the role. I'm sure Scar-Jo can do a decent enough job.

I think she can do it.  I officially give her my support.

no opinion

Hmm lets hope they stick with the background and make her Russian instead of in the Incredible Hulk where Blonski didn't get a vocal coach and they just didn't have be Russian.

Alright then are u looking into her eyes or....

I just dont enjoy the idea. Meh ive been proven wrong twice with actors in comic movies

Robert Downy in Iron Man

And Kelsey Grammar in X3

she is hot

 Black Widow material, IDK, that role really requires someone slightly more mature in age and appearance and personality.  Not saying Scarlett isn't a bad choice, but it is very possible she could pull it off; I am hoping for the best.  She'd look GREAT in black leather, so I guess we shouldn't gripe (at least the guys won't).

Ironic, her husband has now been in 2 comic book related movies I know of (Blade 3 & Wolverine: Origins)  and now this will mark Scarlett's 3rd.  First in Ghost World, then The Spirit and now Iron Man 2.   With the possibility for more, naturally.  It's interesting news.

Just as long as she doesn't make the Russian accent too hammy.  This is Black Widow, not Natasha from Rocky and Bullwinkle.  

As far as her looks and acting talent go, I have complete confidence in her.  She has strong natural chops and is smoking hot.  Give her the red hair and she should fit the bill nicely.  As for being badass...

I'm just happy that they picked someone that has some real acting credentials. I think she can do it.

yeah, I...well, hope for the best obviously.

Man, this news makes me really sad. Black Widow is one of my favorite female heroes. Scarlet is one of my less favorite actress.

Booooo

she is so hot!!

I'm good with whatever she does.

Gotta love the guys that care more about the fact she is good looking, than wether she can pull of the role! lol

Hell ya.......there's a nude scene right?

To be fair, a lot of guys probably don't care much about Black Widow in comics either."

Black Widow is awesome in the comics.  Yeah, Scarlett is hot, but she's also a fine actress.  I think she can do the character justice, with is more than I can say for any other portrayal of Widow I've seen.  In Ultimate Alliance she was just some uber-Russian chick, not a real personality, and that's the way she gets played up all too often.  Her nationality should be a minor part of what she is, not her defining characteristic.  That's a trap Scarlett will have to avoid with the role.  I think the best Black Widow writing has been in the pages of Daredevil; Scarlett should look to the Smith and Bendis interpretations of the character as an inspiration.

The fact that someone of Scarlet's caliber would even consider doing this..makes me happy.Even if she's horrible.It's not like Black Widow is an A-Lister or anything.

umm am I the only one that doesn't think she is that hot?

She was Nick Fury's second... She had her own sub-plot in the game. Other than being a playable character, I'm not sure what more you could really ask of a video game portrayal of her."

Yeah, they certainly didn't go out of their way to get great voice actors either.

It bothered me, but I couldn't turn the game off. I loved Legends 1, 2, and M:UA.

She doesn't have to do any accent! Why is it so obvious that people that English is not there first language should have accents? If she is playing super assassin that was super trained, I think she should speak flawless English, no accent at all. When I see actors trying to imitate Russian accent it hurts my brain. No more!

BTW, read one post below my comment that Rourke will be Rasputin in this film 

Every American actor that play Russian character, you want examples? How about Vigo and Vincent in Eastern Promises. Sean Connery in Hunt for Red October, I need to remember more, but believe me, there's more.

Whatever, you know what I mean. Don't be a wise-ass

Well I think she is in the 80 - 85 percent range... She aint Ugly... but she is no Dime Piece either

YOU ARE INSANE.....HOT GIRL ON THE PLANET.

If she can pull off a hot Russian accent, this'll be awesome.
