MCU YOUR WAY

Natasha Romanoff

also known as Black Widow · Natalie Rushman

The ledger, from an undercover legal aide to the cliff on Vormir.

12 entries 9 films 3 episodes 22h 57m

Natasha shows up as a plot device in someone else's film and spends a decade converting herself into the team's connective tissue. Her own film arrives out of release order and slots between Civil War and Infinity War, which matters, because it is the only entry that deals with where she came from. The run ends on Vormir with nobody watching.
