New Details Revealed About Black Widow’s Past in the MCU Should Be a Movie or Netflix Series
Ever since Scarlett Johansson was introduced as Black Widow in Iron Man 2, we’ve gotten little bits and pieces about her past. Our best look at her past so far in the films was given to us in Avengers: Age of Ultron when we saw how the Red Room shaped a young Natasha Romanoff. We also got a little background on an early version of the program that Natasha was a part of in Agent Carter.
One of the most intriguing details about Natasha’s past comes from the novelization of Captain America: Civil War. Movie Pilot managed to get a copy of it, and it reveals one of the experiences that she had to endure to survive the program, and these little details could seriously be its own movie!
This is the excerpt from the book in which Black Widow shares her experience with Captain America:
Natasha studied Cap’s expression of resolve. Finally, she said, “In Russia, in the Red Room, there were dozens of us. All girls, all young. We lived together. They let us be friends. Then they dropped us in the tundra, two weeks’ walk from home, with just enough supplies for one of us to survive.”
Cap looked at her, understanding her meaning.
“Don’t let them push us into the cold,” she said.
She doesn’t go into any details, but that’s still freakin’ intense! Dozens of girls who were friends dropped into a frozen wasteland where only one of them is forced to survive?! We obviously know who that was. That’s a basic plot to an incredible story that would make for one insanely awesome movie! Hell, that could even be a full on limited series on Netflix. That story could easily be drawn out into ten episodes. I watch the hell out of it!
It’d seriously be a waste of an idea and a shame if that never happened.
