10 Major Concerns About Upcoming Movies

10. Natasha Might Come Back From The Dead - Black Widow

Black Widow is set to be the first MCU movie released in the better part of two years, and if the film's marketing can be believed, it's a prequel intended to give Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) a final send-off following her demise in Avengers: Endgame.

As much as fans are speculating on the identity of Taskmaster, who the real villain might be, and what role Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) will play, there's one maddening question above all others - will Natasha be resurrected by film's end?

Though many suspect that Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) may end up taking over the Black Widow role in future MCU movies, it's also been rumoured that the film will conclude by somehow bringing Natasha back to life in the present day.

While it'd certainly please some fans, for others it'd only reinforce the MCU's nagging stakes problem, that when death has no finality and means so little, it's tough to ever care when a major character "dies."

Given that the deaths of Natasha and Tony Stark are among the MCU's few that felt truly concrete, hopefully Kevin Feige and co. will have the good sense to keep them dead, and only bring them back through sparing use of flashbacks.

If the movie does indeed end with Natasha alive and well, though, expect plenty of pushback from the fanbase.
