Ewww.... she looks hideous! Hint to her artist - its called "MAKEUP", not "SPACKLE"! What's next, the 'Pavel Chekov School of Russian Accents'?

"Yes Mr. Stark, the nooklear wessels are 50 miles off the coast..."

I'm REALLY not into Ms. Scarlett!

loganoneil i worry sometimes;)

She looks good...not Black Widow good but maybe with the operations they are giving her to lengthen her legs, elongate her mid riff and download a Russian accent into her head she will be just right.

What do you mean thats not happening??

This is looking real disappointing...I was pretty pumped when Emily Blunt was picked because she looked dead on, but Scarlet continues to disappoint.

Logan, I'm with Rorsch... again! After our debate on the Fathom/Meagan Fox article... I'm starting to worry.

I won't get to into it, cause I just recently found out I was alone in liking Scarlett. I agree with all of you that Emily Blunt definitely had a better look. I haven't seen the Spirit yet so I don't know how good she was in it. I have seen her knock heads in a few movies and she seems a natural with fight choreography just in case anyone is worried about that.

i posted first but it was deleted
probably because i swore about how much scarlet is NOT the black widow
she is overrated and even though she is ok to look at does not mean she should be in all these comic book movies

fellas, fellas...it said that they're doing SCREEN TESTS. have you ever seen the screen tests for movies like lord of the rings, spider-man, incredible hulk, or any other movie? it's all part of the PROCESS of trial and error with getting the look right. they never actually end up looking anything like the first hundred screen tests once they start filming.

and just for the sake of putting my argument into the mix, scarlett is infinitely better looking than megan fox. and that's leaving scarlett's far superior acting talents out of the equation. that's not even an equation.

Well ive said it, and i'll say it again, i think shes perfect for BLACK WIDOW!!! A Millions time's more perfect than Sam 'ULTIMATE' Jackson for an AVENGER movie!!! Hell yeah! Shes perfect!!! ; )

SirPrize: in this pic, ScarJo does look little
bit like Rose Mcgowan when she was dating
Marilyn Manson.. and the black widow pic looks like
Natasha Henstridge or something..

& thwip's right, it's still very early in the process..
she could really look the part in the end, i mean she
looks alright with red hair (unlike some other actresses
named kirsten dunst) i would still have preferred emily blunt though..

yeah Grif, it's just a red carpet pic, so I'm holding back judgement until we see her in actual movie pics in costume and everything

Scarlett is wayyy hotter than Megan Fox. Plus Scarlett is a really good actress.

she looks like a foot

goood actress...hmmm...frankly, I don't see it. Shes a pretty big joke I think, there hasn't been a stand out performance out of her in any of her films. Someone just say it, Megan Fox and Scarlet are just in the running for these things because they're dead sexy. They're not good acting talent. Kate Beckinsale on the other hand is a pretty reasonable suggestion. We can already see her in a leather outfit from Underworld and shes a pretty decent actress. Well, there's nothing we can do now about it, hopefully when actually dressed the part, Scarlet will look more appropriate for the role...but I'm just trying to get my hopes up...

THANK YOU sespar27 - MY POINT EXACTLY!!!!!!

Actually, I've been pulling for Olga Kurylenko for the part of Black Widow...

You guys are f*&%ing funny with the make up thing. "Just look at that tart! All that make-up! I can see her dirty pillows!" When did comic geeks start becoming puritans?

As long as she can pull off the accent and not over-act the part (as so many actors [good or no] do when they appear in genre films), I don't give a S#%@ who they put in the role.

Cool, it looks like I'm not as alone as I thought in thinking Scarlett will be a great Widow.

Joslezio85 - 3/26/2009, 12:43 PM
ok. i like scarlett. i like megan fox more. but i don't like either as the black widow. What happened to Mila Jovavich. I mean, she's russian, she's hot, she looks good with a gun, she's got red hair, and she looks better than both these damn girls. How was this not the most obvious pick?
ComicChic
ComicChic - 3/26/2009, 12:55 PM
@joslezio85: I agree 100% about Milla, but she might be too busy between her current workload and the baby.
loganaspatch
loganaspatch - 3/26/2009, 1:05 PM
that is a red carpet picture and i believe the makeup is caked on heavy like that because its suppose to be seen from a distance.

anyway i feel you guys pain because scarlets not the woman you wanted i too was heartbroken when they chose anna paquin as rogue, the rogue i remember was "suthern" and was just amazing to look at in the comics. its water under the bridge now but this woman should have been rogue

joslezio85, Milla is taller than every cast member on the film, except Paltrow. Downey JR. would have to wear 4 inch lifts in order to kiss her face to face.

Scarlett will work just fine. Shes got the perfect size boobs and the hair looks good. Now the russian accent... thats a whole different story.

The only thing Scarlett has that is similar to the character of the Black Widow is the boobs. That's it. Cut and dry.

....although those are some pretty nice boobs:P

I dunno but from what i've seen its like a lot of peeps up here label super hot chicks as bad actresses...Jeez...lets see how she does first....i personally think y'all are going to eat your words when she kills this role...i think scarlett is pretty decent as an actress, i'm a little scared about the accent though but other than that i aint worried...

TO Logan...I sorto kinda agree but you have to realize that some peeps have been waiting for years for some of these characters to come alive on the big screen and to see someone cast some actor that will fack it up.....com'mon ...you're right we going to watch wolverine but i don't wanna see hollywood fack up a very crucial character in deadpool...

xxDarkitectxx - 3/26/2009, 2:28 PM
I gotta pitch in my vote! I think she is dead sexy and will be able to pull off this part. She is a great actress and I personally haven't seen anything she's done that she "overacted". Just my two cents. Word.

@TheMyth:

Did you get a chance to read my email or new thread in the message boards yet?

I think Eliza Dushku should have gotten the role. She can speak Russian and could pull off the character better. Thats just my opinion.

I can't believe people are complaining about this. I can't wait to see her running around in that tight black outfit I hope they redesign the outfit so there's a little cleavage.Scarlett Johansson is a hot
