Scarlett Johansson remains adamant that Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow’s death in the Marvel Cinematic Universe should not be undone.
This is just me, but I always felt her acting talents were wasted in the MCU. Same with Brie Larson.
They got her early. She had a few solid credits to her name when she did Iron Man 2, but the smart MCU move at that point was to recruit young-ish talent and get them signed on for multi-movie contracts relatively cheap. Hopefully what we all get out of that sort of arrangement is that talented actors make enough MCU money to go off and do whatever out-there artsy stuff that creatively appeals to them and fosters their talents, rather than having to plug away in garbage movies just to pay the bills.
I agree on Scarlet but not on Brie Larson, I find most characters she plays to be bland or not move me as much.
While Scarlet in Lucy, Dark Blue and ghost in the shell really really make it clear how good of an actress she is.
What about when she played Envy Adams on Scott Pilgrim!

I mean it was a smaller role years ago, but I loved it.
For Scarlett, I think she was amazing in Marriage Story.
I didn’t know it was actually her in scott pilgrim, tought it was a good imitation. That is amazing.
Will add marriage story to my watchlist, can’t remember having seen it.
