According to director Cate Shortland, Romanoff’s movie arriving after audiences have seen her on-screen demise had its advantages.

“The timing] was really liberating,” the filmmaker tells Empire in the new _[Black Widow issue. “I wanted to give her justice. It gave us this feeling like, ‘I’ve got one chance and I really want people to understand her and to feel empathy for her,’ because often what you see is a very fetishised construct. We wanted to get under her skin.” That meant delving back into her past, and reuniting her with her former Russian ‘family’ – Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, Rachel Weisz’s Melina Vostokoff, and David Harbour’s Alexei Shostakov.

For Johansson, it marks the culmination of a decade of storytelling and character building. “I don’t really have the perspective on it yet,” she says. “I think it will take some time for it to sink in. It’s been such a constant in my life for a decade of time. Every 18 months, coming back to this family and continuing the journey with everyone… I think we all probably have mixed feelings about it, at least in specific scenes, but I really had a sense of accomplishment [after shooting finished on Black Widow]. I feel like I tried it all this time around. I really got to go to all those uncomfortable places and explore certain recesses of her.”
