Scarlett Johansson will reprise her role as Black Widow in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and will do so again for The Avengers: Age of Ultron in 2015. But could a Black Widow solo movie be on the way?

Chris Evans, who plays Captain America, told Total Film (via Comic Book Movie), "Black Widow's whole arc [in Captain America 2] is coming to terms with her history, that she's been a spy, and spies aren't necessarily trustworthy." But Marvel Studios President of Production Kevin Feige told the magazine that her character would be explored more in depth in Age of Ultron and possibly in a solo venture.

"We start filming the next Avengers film at the end of March,"  he said. "[Black] Widow's part in that is very big. We learn more about her past and learn more about where she came from and how she became in that film. The notion of exploring that even further in her own film would be great, and we have some development work with that." 

Marvel has movies planned until 2021, so a solo film for a lesser character, particularly with Johansson in the lead role, is possible. As for the Captain America sequel, Feige described it as a game changer.

"We wanted to change the dynamic of the cinematic universe with this film," said Feige of Captain America: The Winter Soldier. "We wanted Cap and really the entire cinematic universe to be very different at the end of Winter Solider than it is at the beginning. Therefore when we meet the Avengers at the top of Age of Ultron, it's a very different landscape than we left them at the end of the first film. Partially that's because we love the rhythm that the comic books have developed - each of the characters appear in their runs, occasionally they get together for a big event or crossover series, they part again, and then they come back together again."
