black widow's prequel movie is almost
here but one question that fans still
have is whether captain america will be
involved
it would make sense right we know the
movie takes place between
civil war and infinity war and in the
latter film we see natasha teamed up
with cap in his secret avengers
so does this mean that we're heading for
an end scene featuring a steve rogers
reunion based on the plot of the movie
it's possible
today's video is all about how captain
america can play a role in black widow's
prequel movie so let's get into
it right now so much happened in civil
war that it's easy to forget black
widow's story the hero went back and
forth between captain america and
iron man on who to support during the
whole sokovia accords debacle but
ultimately sided with steve
it was tough because natasha really
believed in the avengers and had to
watch as the team was tearing itself
apart
she helped tony track steve to the
germany airport so the two could talk
things out
but things quickly turned into a full-on
fight which was
awesome for the audience but not so much
the characters
after she helps steve escape tony tells
it to run and just like that
black widow is out on her own so that
definitely shapes black widow's current
headspace for her prequel movie which
again
is set after civil war and before
infinity war we know that captain
america goes underground with falcon and
scarlet witch to become the secret
avengers and we know that cap grows an
awesome beard
but we don't know how black widow and
captain america are reunited
thanks to the events of civil war nat
seems done with the idea of a team and
the whole concept of family
she's happy to be on her own doing her
own thing but we know that changes
we know that black widow goes back to
steve rogers in order to rejoin the team
and more likely than not we'll see why
in the black widow movie from what we
know natasha reunites with her estranged
family in her movie which includes her
quasi sister elena and the washed-up
red guardian who back in his prime was
the russian version of captain america
it's these interactions that are going
to remind
black widow the importance of family and
cause her to pick up the phone to call
steve
at the end to rejoin his mission and
that's why a steve rogers cameo is so
important here
sure the movie could end with suggesting
that black widow will go out and find
steve to join him but it's way
more powerful to have this reunion scene
actually take place
black widow will spend her movie
reconnecting with her old family so it's
important that we actually see
on screen her reconnecting with her new
avengers family
having her meet up with steve rogers in
person provides the perfect ending to
the movie black widow is
trying to tell and it would feel less
complete if we don't see it
heck even if it's just a voice on the
phone that would be enough
imagine this she calls an unknown person
at the end saying she's ready to rejoin
and then there's a pause and then we
hear steve
rogers voice telling her they should
meet up perfect ending
but let's be honest here there's a lot
more that goes into a captain america
cameo than meets the eye and there's an
equal chance that cap
won't appear at all in this movie and
it's not hard to make the case against
it
for one this is black widow's movie fans
have been clamoring for a solo film for
the character since she first debuted
so maybe it's wiser to keep the focus
solely on her for the time being
we got this it's good a sudden
appearance by captain america even at
the very end will
shift the focus of the movie to cap
which wouldn't necessarily be a good
thing
plus it might hurt caps ending in the
mcu a little bit
right now the last shot we see of steve
is dancing in the past with peggy carter
and that's a perfect ending for the
character
years from now do we really want to
think back to steve's last appearance in
the mcu and think of a quick cameo in
black widow or do we want to remember
his final scene as the one that ended
his overall character arc
because you don't necessarily need
captain america for nat to successfully
return to the avengers
maybe if the mcu wanted they could have
black widow meet up with another member
of the secret avengers
both sam and wanda are teamed up with
cap and both of them have
bright futures in the mcu so maybe it
would be wiser to have black widow
reconnect with one of them to end the
movie
it's still a way to tie in the theme of
natasha reconnecting with family but
does so without the risk of
overshadowing her own journey or ruining
captain america's perfect ending
i could see it going either way in terms
of a captain america appearance
though overall i think it's better if we
do have that cameo
steve and natasha have one of the best
relationships in the mcu it was great to
see them grow closer with one another in
captain america the winter soldier and
they clearly mean a lot to each other
cap is a super important figure in black
widow's life so it would make sense to
have him
involved in some way in her prequel
movie come on mcu don't let us down we
hope he paid chris evans
all the money he wants to make this
happen and there's another reason cap
should be included and that's because of
red guardian from the trailers and other
info we know red guardian's supposed to
be the russian version of captain
america and i'm sure nat will notice
some similarities between him and steve
now this is just speculation but doesn't
red guardian seem like the type of
character to not survive at the end he's
the washed up comic relief modeled after
captain america who will have his big
moment to save the day
sacrificing his life in the process his
possible death
might spur black widow to reunite with
her own version of cap and if such a
moment takes place
it's important for steve to actually
appear on screen it would show how the
legacy of captain america lives on
all this shows why we need captain
america in this movie
what do you think you think we're in for
a surprise cap appearance by the end of
black widow
