Black Cat is an extremely underrated Marvel Comics character, and it makes absolutely no sense that nearly two decades after Sam Raimi's Spider-Man was released, we still haven't seen her in live-action. Silver & Black (a team-up featuring Silver Sable and Black Cat) was in the works for a while, but that fell apart and the cat burglar now appears to be stuck in limbo.
Rumour has it Anne Hathaway would have played Felicia Hardy in Spider-Man 4, but it was in 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 we were first introduced to Felicity Jones' "Felicia."
While it was never outright stated that she was going to become Black Cat, it was teased, and chances are her transformation would have played out in The Amazing Spider-Man 3 or Sinister Six. Now, a spectacular piece of fan-art imagines what the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story star would look like suited up as one of Peter Parker's best love interests.
Black Cat is a great character in her own right, of course, but it does make most sense for her to debut alongside the web-slinger. If Sony Pictures does decide to #MakeTASM3, then bringing Jones back is a decision that would be welcomed by a lot of fans, and while this fan-art takes inspiration from the Spider-Man video game, it's a look that works really well.
Do you think Felicia Hardy should appear in the MCU or Sony's Spider-Man Universe?
