Trivia & Production Notes

Based on the Marvel Comics property.
According to Chris Evans, who plays Captain America, Black Widow's storyline in The Winter Soldier revolves around "her coming to terms with her history, that she's been a spy, and spies aren't necessarily trustworthy".
Directors Cate Shortland, Amma Asante (Belle) and Maggie Betts (Novitiate) are the top three contenders to helm the film (Deadline, 6/20/18).
