MCU: Every Character Confirmed For Phase 4 (So Far)

Confirmed By: A Black Widow solo movie is happening.

For a long time the only female hero in the MCU, a Black Widow movie feels well overdue. Indeed there's an argument Marvel have missed the window when this would've really made a huge impact, but there's undeniably still a lot of interest in learning more about Natasha Romanoff.

Although not 100% confirmed, it's likely the movie will be a prequel, which means we can finally discover more about that red in her ledger. Scarlett Johansson is set to return, Jac Schaeffer is penning the script, and Marvel have met with dozens (and dozens) of directors already, with Cate Shortland the current favourite, so this could be one of the earlier Phase 4 movies we see.
