Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow was the center of an emotional tribute five long years after her on-screen death.
Starting as one of the original six Avengers after 2010’s Iron Man 2, Johansson’s Black Widow quickly became an MCU icon. She would star in eight total MCU movies as Natasha Romanoff (nine including a Captain Marvel cameo), culminating in her own solo film which helped open the Multiverse Saga.
The most emotional moment of her MCU arc came in 2019’s mega-hit Avengers: Endgame, in which she sacrificed her life to obtain the Soul Stone. This left Earth’s Mightiest Heroes devastated, although they avenged her death and defeated Thanos after bringing half the universe back into existence.
Additionally, along with her 2021 solo Black Widow movie, Marvel has ensured her memory will live on through various tributes and memorials.
