Ok, so Black Widow doesn’t have powers but this is pretty much how I imagine a Natasha solo film going. Luc Besson is no stranger to creating films with interesting woman (The Fifth Element, La Femme Nikita, Léon: The Professional) and this time he’s chosen Scarlett Johansson as his muse. She plays the title role of Lucy in this action-thriller and winds up with special powers after being kidnapped as a drug mule.

Now might I make a suggestion? Everyone go see this film and prove to Marvel Entertainment a Black Widow solo film starring ScarJo needs to be made a priority.
