In a recent interview with Comic Book Resources at Comic-Con International this year, Scarlett Johansson opened up about her role as Natasha Romanoff, AKA Black Widow.
Here are a few excerpts from the interview.
CBR: Scarlett, this year marked your first visit to Comic-Con. What was that like for you?
SCARLETT JOHANSSON: It was incredible. I’ve never experienced anything like that before and certainly I’ve never experienced anything like that two weeks after filming is wrapped. So it’s exciting to be part of something that has this built in fan base that has this electricity around it.
What did you think when you first saw the footage of yourself in “Iron Man 2?”
SCARLETT JOHANSSON: It was crazy to see it for the first time. I mean everything all zipped up, all the weapons in there, the bracelets on and the whole look. It was pretty sweet, I have to say. And certainly walking on set, because a lot of the people that worked on the film are fans of the comic, of course they know the Black Widow and they’re all super excited to see the Black Widow. When everybody on the crew was like, “That looks awesome,” I knew we were okay.
From the clips that were shown at Comic-Con International, it looks like you had a lot of physical work to do in the film.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON: I kick some major butt, is that what you’re trying to say? It was just many, many hours, days and months of stunt training and strength training. But its fun because I had a goal and the goal was [getting into] the cat suit.
