Black widow is easily the most feminist marvel cinematic universe movie, with an abundance of scenes affirming female experiences and exploring female relationships. In black widow, yelena takes a moment to call out how ridiculously sexual nat's character used to be in the mcu by making fun of her overly sensual pose and how it's not practical at all. After a decade at marvel, johansson’s black widow has evolved the role, and cleared the path for a new superspy heroine who won’t have to face any of the toxic sexism that she endured. “black widow” is a complex ode to modern feminism, exploring the chilling ways women are socialized and, in this movie, literally wired to harm other women under patriarchy.
