As a hardcore gamer, I’ve been on the edge of my seat lately, hearing rumors about Scarlett Johansson potentially reprising her role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But here’s something unexpected: she hinted at it through the medium we gamers love – video games! That’s right, folks. She dropped a clue in a game, leaving us guessing and eagerly waiting for more news from the MCU!
Would Scarlett Johansson direct an MCU movie?
During an interview with Deadline at Cannes Film Festival, Scarlett Johansson was asked about the possibility of reprising her role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and if she’d consider directing a large-scale action film like an MCU movie. Johansson expressed that it would be unlikely for her to return as the character, but she is open to the idea of directing an MCU production in the future.
Johansson expressed that she enjoys action movies with a strong human element. She mentioned that while working on Black Widow, she found a way to preserve the themes of family, connection, and human emotions, despite the film’s grand scale. In essence, she suggested that it is possible to maintain these elements in a larger-than-life universe, making it an exciting prospect.

2019 saw Johansson potentially taking up a leading role as a star in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Avengers: Endgame. Moreover, she served as an executive producer for the 2025 film, Thunderbolts, although she herself did not appear in the movie’s main cast.
*Thunderbolts is a forthcoming team superhero film in the MCU.
Next up for the prominent actor, you’ll find roles in two upcoming productions: Wes Anderson’s movie titled “The Phoenician Scheme” and the highly-anticipated film “Jurassic World: Reborn”.
