Even though Avengers: Endgame came out more than a year ago back in April 2019, emotions have still been understandably running high among fans about how the film worked as a conclusion to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to that point. One lingering point of contention has been how the movie closed out Black Widow's storyline: (spoiler alert) Choosing to sacrifice herself in Vormir so Hawkeye could obtain the Soul Stone. Many fans felt Black Widow was at the very least deserving of a funeral scene just like Tony Stark's. But Scarlet Johansson, the actor who portrayed Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow, doesn't see it quite that way.

"I love Natasha," Johansson told Total Film. "She's had an incredible 10-year journey, and I felt that she was finally able to make an active choice. It seemed very in-character, that ultimate sacrifice that she makes. She's made peace with that, and, in some ways, has known that's her destiny all along, in a weird poetic way. When you look back on the films, that's in there. All the films have led her to that choice--or to be able to make that choice; or for it to be a choice."
