10 Insane Fan Theories For Upcoming Movies (That Might Actually Be True)

The Theory

The film ends by jumping back to the present and revealing that, somehow, The Avengers have found a way to undo Natasha's (Scarlett Johansson) sacrifice in Avengers: Endgame, bringing her back to life.

Why It Might Be True

For starters, the MCU sadly isn't overflowing with mainline female superheroes, and so Black Widow's death in Endgame was a bit of an odd call - not to mention the weirdness of only giving her a solo movie after she died.

But if the film is actually framed as the means through which Natasha is restored as a key member of the team, then it'd make a lot more sense.

Though Endgame tried to hand-wave how much of a Pandora's Box time travel now is for the MCU, there's clearly the possibility of some timey-wimey shenanigans being used to either undo Natasha's Soul Stone sacrifice or bring her past self forward a few years.

While bringing Natasha back from the dead would only further strain the MCU's already loose grasp on internal continuity, Johansson's sheer popularity and marketability - not to mention her relatively young age - means Marvel Studios probably doesn't want to let go just yet.
