Iron Man and Captain America are pitted against one another in Captain America: Civil War, and we now know more about Black Widow's role in that conflict.
In a new interview with Scarlett Johansson, the actor said that Natasha serves as a mediator between the two superheroes.
"You know, I think she understands where everyone is coming from," she told Entertainment Weekly. "And none of it really matters to her, you know? There’s a bigger problem at hand and she’s, I think, strangely, kind of the mediator. Which is not exactly how you would imagine her to be. But I think she really does see both sides of the coin and I think her strength is that she’s not personally involved."
Natasha will evidently agree with Iron Man at least at first, trying to get Captain America on board with the Sokovia Accords, but it sounds like she won't be entirely against Steve Rogers' efforts either. As Johansson went on to say, Natasha sees this whole thing as being more complicated than simply picking one side.
Captain America: Civil War will revolve around the Avengers being at odds, mainly over what to do about the Winter Solider and the Sokovia Accords, an attempt to regulate superheroes. It will star Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr., Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd and Tom Holland as Spider-Man.
