For National Superhero Day, Marvel Studios released a short teaser focusing on Black Widow and her history and accomplishments as a promo for the hero's upcoming solo film.
"It's National Super Hero Day, and Natasha Romanoff will always be our hero," reads the caption of the promotional teaser for the holiday, first termed in 1995 by Marvel themselves. The teaser features Scarlett Johansson, who asks the viewer "How much do you really know about the elusive Natasha Romanoff?" before proceeding to run through the character's history in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Accompanied by footage of Black Widow from previous MCU movies, Johansson lists off the events her character has participated in since her first appearance in Iron Man 2 in 2010. Johansson's time as the character spans 10 films and 11 years, but Black Widow marks the first time the superhero has claimed the starring role. "It's time for her story." Johansson declares, before the teaser launches into footage from the upcoming film.
Releasing July 9 in theaters and on Disney+ Premier Access after being postponed three times due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Widow is the first feature film in Phase 4 of Marvel's Cinematic Universe as well as the first Marvel Studios film to be released on Disney+. The film takes place shortly after the events of Captain America: Civil War and focuses on Romanoff's efforts to deal with a conspiracy linked to events from her past.
