In a recent interview, Avengers: Age of Ultron star Scarlett Johansson revealed that even though she was pregnant, she still performed all of the motorcycle stunts. "I did all of the motorcycle riding. I embarrassingly rode some sort of mechanical-bull type of motorcycle, which goes nowhere and doesn't look cool, at all.” She then tells that she had some training in that field that helped her make her character look more remarkable. “But, I had some very professional and amazing motor-cross morphing done that makes Black Widow look like a total badass." Pretty intense.
She also tells that it wasn’t just her making Black Widow look awesome throughout the film, but it was due to director Joss Whedon as well. "Every film is exciting because I get new tools and fun new stuff to do, and luckily Joss writes me some badass moves that make me look like that. It’s awesome." As for the actual Black Widow character, Scarlett Johansson tells how her personality differed from the beginning of the film and the end of the film. "In the beginning of Avengers 2, there is some sense, finally, of everything being normal, in a way ... And at the end of Avengers 2, I think Widow ... had this moment of false hope, where she felt like she'd put in the work and [felt] there should be some kind of personal payoff, and she was ready to accept it.” She then continued, “She realizes that her calling is a greater one, which is not necessarily something that she's thrilled about."
We all heard that Hawkeye will have a pivotal part in the film, as well as the Super siblings, but Johansson revealed Black Widow’s most heroic aspect that could have a pivotal part in the film, "That's what is most heroic about her, she's accepting the call of duty, even at her own personal loss. I think it's an interesting place to leave her." There’s not many questions we can ask now. It’s only a matter of time before everyone lays eyes on the Avengers sequel.
