On July 9th, the time has come: Marvel’s Black Widow will crawl onto the big screen after the cinemas across Germany have reopened. Whether you know your way around the MCU or not, you should have some previous Marvel films fresh in your mind.

There are two ways to see Black Widow starting July: Since the cinemas have reopened, you can sit down directly in one of the premieres or in later screenings. Corona regulations will probably apply here, which vary from state to state – inform yourself well beforehand! If a visit to the cinema is not so important to you, you can also stream Black Widow from July 9th: With the VIP access to Disney + for 21.99 euros / month you get access to the film.

Either way, there are several MCU films that you should remember to fully enjoy Black Widow. In general, of course, knowledge of all previous Marvel films is an advantage – but since there are quite a few, we have put together for you the most important milestones in which Black Widow plays a central role.

Good to know: Black Widow does not take place after Endgame, but between The First Avenger: Civil War and Avengers: Inifinity War.

    • Natasha’s first appearance in Iron Man 2 established the now world-famous character Black Widow; Iron Man 2 is therefore a movie that you should have seen. Stream Iron Man 2 on Disney +.
