Captain America: Civil War - 10 Biggest Rumours You Need To Know (Nov 5)

3. Black Widow Will Die

So here's why Black Widow isn't going to get her own stand-alone film: she's dead meat. One Internet "source" has claimed that Black Widow will be the one to bite the dust rather than Captain America before the Civil War final credits roll. It was presented as a theory, and reported as fact, obviously. Rating: 0/10 If there was a rating less than 0, this one would get it. The source is Yibada, everyone's favourite "creative" news source, who claimed that MoviePilot were suggesting that Natasha could be biting the dust. Inevitably, though, a little digging finds that MoviePilot made no such claims (she was ranked as part of their Who Will Die, Who Won't... feature at 20%), but that doesn't stop some writers from simply replacing fact with spurious conjecture. So it's best to just discount this one entirely, particularly since Kevin Feige has been vehement in his assertion that the MCU is not going to suddenly start being overly dark.
