Why is Scarlett Johansson leaving Marvel? Was it her decision or Disney's?

-

Well lets see . . .

 

Disney is ready to move on and wants Yelena Belova to become the new Black Widow , just like we saw in the comics.



And it seems like Johansson is OK with the idea of leaving.

Scarlett Johansson and director Cate Shortland recently spoke with The Gentlewoman.

Shortland revealed that Black Widow was possibly Johansson's last film as The Black Widow. The idea of finality for Johansson as this character contributed to the making of the film, according to Shortland :


“She really pushed to make something that wasn’t flimsy or superficial. She wanted to make something that meant a lot to young people and to women. And she knew it was possibly her last film as Black Widow – she didn’t want to leave Marvel making a feel-good movie.”


Johansson herself added that the experience of doing her own solo film was "exposing":

“She’s always been a part of something bigger than herself, and now that’s all gone. Yeah, it was exposing. But it was time, you know?"

In every way, it's better to leave a situation when you're on top

-Scarlett Johansson


It may have not been her decision to ultimately Scarlett seems to be at peace with it.

This will be her final story with Johansson preparing to wave proshchay ('farewell' in Russia) to the cinematic universe she's been part of for over a decade.


"Its's definitely bittersweet because I love my Marvel family" she says. "I am never going to be ready to not be a part of it. They'll always be family."

"I'll never feel ready to not ben in it, because I hate to feel like I'm missing out on stuff with them. And who knows? Maybe at some point, we'll have some opportunity to collaborate in some other kind of way."


It sounds like both sides are ready to move on but there may be a future again for Natasha Romanoff.

In my opinion, their decision is mutual.

SPOILER ALERT!!!  The TVA seems to have power over beings in the Sacred Timeline which would include the Celestials and Odin but not Dormammu. If we belIeve the  TVA , the Multiverse used to be at war and to stop this great war the  Time-Keepers  have been undoing the Multiverse and creating one Universe called the  Sacred Timeline. Even if this is true the Multiverse does exist and beings like  Dormammu  live in an alternate dimension and seem to out of the control and dominion of the  TVA . Dormammu Dormammu  exists in and is the absolute ruler of the  Dark   Dimension . The  Dark   Dimension  is not controlled by time and it would seem is not under the control of the  Time-Keepers. Dark Dimension It’s possible that  Dormammu  and the  Dark   Dimension  was part of the Multiverse war and even though he didn’t win,  Dormammu  is not controlled nor effected by the  Time-Keepers . Since the first Sorcerer Supreme discovered the existence of other dimensions it has been their sole purpos

(Spoilers for Loki) How does the Time Variance Authority have multiple sets of Infinity Stones?

  Because as evidenced by the Time Authority variants are appearing all the time. We saw the Time Variance Authority processing and sentencing Variants who could destroy the Sacred Timeline and send the universe into a multiverse war again. If a Loki Variant could steal one Tesseract (one infinity stone) then why couldn't other variant beings do the same thing? Evidently other variant beings did try to steal or use an infinity stone and they were captured and their infinity stone was probably taken from them. Even though Loki Variant took the Tesseract, it still exists in the time when Steve Rogers returned the stones. The copy of the Tesseract like other infinity stones I’m sure came to the Time Variance in similar fashion. So it would seem the Time Variance keeps such trinkets as paperweights. I hope that clears up any confusion!
