BlackWidow director says the movie is also a “fitting ending” for the titular superhero (via toofab)

Nevertheless, this film is her swan song as a character that's been embraced so readily for many years by filmgoers and superhero fans, so it was important to get her goodbye right.

"What we did in this film was allow the ending to be the grief the individuals felt, rather than a big public outpouring," Shortland said."I think that's a fitting ending for her." And it sounds like Johansson is more than ready to hand over the reins of the character to Pugh, as Shortland said it was Johansson who described it as,"Oh, I'm handing her the baton."

"So it's going to propel another female storyline," Shortland said. If fans embrace Pugh as much as Shortland hopes, maybe they won't have to wait another decade to see her star in a solo film for the character. "Black Widow" is currently slated to hit theaters on November 6, but of course that is dependent on their being any theaters open to catch it. As always, COVID-19 will ultimately decide.
