Los Angeles, July 10, 2021: After getting delayed for more than one year, Marvel Studios' female-led superhero movie, Black Widow, finally playing in theaters on July 9. The 24th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) was also released simultaneously on Disney+ Premier Access with $30 additional fees required in the US.

As expected, Black Widow opened with highly positive reviews from critics and audiences. Currently, the movie is "Certified Fresh" on Rotten Tomatoes with an 80% critics score and 93% audience score. Critics have called it one of the finest solo superhero films from Marvel Studios.



Not only the critics and audiences, the "Spider-Man: No Way Home" star Tom Holland too enjoyed watching this much-awaited film from Marvel. The actor took to Instagram stories and wrote, "Been waiting ages for this film and it was worth the wait. This film is awesome!!! So exciting and so funny".

Set after the events of Captain America: Civil War (2016), the film sees Natasha Romanoff on the run and forced to confront a conspiracy tied to her past. Black Widow is also going to be Scarlett Johansson's one last appearance as Natasha in the MCU movies. In Avengers: End Game, Natasha had already died to get the infinity stone.

"In some weird, messed up, backwards way, if any person could be truly altruistic and totally weird, because nobody is obviously, but actually the act that she... Her sacrifice was a truly altruistic offering," Johansson said of Natasha's decision to earn the Soul Stone for the Avengers and spare Clint Barton's life while talking to ComicBook.com on the movie's set.



"I think she really sacrifices herself, in a way, no just really out of love, for love, she saves her friend. She saves everyone, but she saves her friend. And I think that just being in that kind of headspace and being able to make that decision, that selfless decision, that selfless act, is so incredibly powerful. It's amazing that she could be in that headspace to do that", she added.

Black Widow, directed by Cate Shortland, also stars Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, David Harbour as Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, Rachel Weisz as Melina Vostokoff, O. T. Fagbenle as Mason, and Ray Winstone as Dreykov.

On the other hand, Tom Holland will be reprising his role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man from Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) in the upcoming Spider-Man: No Way Home. The Jon Watts directorial is scheduled to release in theaters on December 17, 2021, as part of Phase Four of the MCU.
