The Moment from The Age of Ultron Trailer that Crystallizes Why Marvel Studios Has A Woman Problem
Following its leak online yesterday, Marvel Studios officially released its trailer for the Avenger’s sequel, “Age of Ultron”. You can watch the entire trailer here.
And in that trailer there is this moment above which is without question one of the best action moments.
It is Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow dropping out of a plane while riding a motorcycle.
Can anyone argue this is not awesome?
Every male lead character save Hawkeye and Nick Fury has had a standalone movie. Ironman, Thor, Cap and the Hulk. Antman will soon have his own film. There is also rumors swirling about a Dr. Strange movie.
But Black Widow, the character that is about to appear in her fourth Marvel movie, does not have a film announced.
With Lucy this past year, Johansson showed she can take mediocre material and turn it into a worldwide hit grossing over $415M globally. That’s for an unlicensed character in a film with bad to middling reviews. By comparison the first Captain American film with Chris Evans had a worldwidel box office of $370M globally.
When asked why there is no Black Widow film, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has that he “hopes” to have a movie "sooner than later".
But he’s also said it won’t happen anytime soon.
Marvel Studios Executive Vice President Vicki Alonson was recently asked about the lack of female led films by Marvel she said "if it were up to me, it would be today"
A few weeks ago, DC Comics announced that they would make a Wonder Woman film in 2017 with Gal Gadot.
But Marvel Studios? No female led films.
Why with the success of Lucy, Black Widow given plenty of life out of the four other films she’s appeared in would Marvel Studios not greenlight this film?
I’m not sure I entirely can put the blame on Feige. He ultimately answers to Ike Perlmutter but you have to wonder too why he is choosing to leave the potential gross of a Black Widow movie on the table.
It’s not the visibility of the character.
It’s not like they don’t have an actor proven at the box office.
It’s not like there aren’t any good stories to tell.
There’s only one major difference between Black Widow and the other characters Marvel Studios is giving their own movies to - she’s a woman.
And that’s a problem.

Got to work today and a brand new MacBook Air was sitting on my desk. :D I’ve never owned an Apple device before but I love my new laptop! It even smells good. How is that possible?

My daughter has not seen her biological dad since she was four. She’s 11 now. When she was two he contacted me and asked if I would allow him to terminate his parental rights so he could stop paying child support and I agreed.. I wanted to spare her the heartache of a revolving door father and the sacrifice of the financial support was well worth him never being able to disappoint her again. I never lied to her about where he went or who her dad was.. I have always answered her questions in the most age appropriate way possible. When she was four he contacted me and told me he has been diagnosed with cancer and would like to see her. I set aside a day and we met in the park. He had asked for two hours. He stayed 20 minutes and we never heard from him again.. Over the summer we ran into somebody that knows him and they commented on how she looks like his other children. They elaborated that he has settled down and has a family now. My stomach tied itself in knots thinking of how hurtful that must be to my daughter.. I cut the conversation short and we got in the car to leave and that’s when I saw her smiling. She said “mom.. He figured out how to be a dad. That’s such a nice thing. I’m happy for his kids.” And that’s the day an 11 year old taught me all I need to know about forgiveness
