Robert Downey Jr has thrown his support behind a solo Black Widow movie.
Black Widow has become a popular character in the Marvel film world and this year we have seen a number of calls to receive her own solo movie.
Black Widow - played by Scarlett Johansson - made her first appearance in Iron Man 2 back in 2010.
And now Downey Jr is now the latest actor to add his name to add his voice to the campaign.
Speaking to USA Today, the actor said: "I think that the interesting thing particularly after Guardians with Zoe [Saldana, or] even from the first 'Iron Man' where Pepper was kind of this really - to me the 'Iron Man' franchise would never have taken off without [Gwyneth] Paltrow.
"There's something about her that grounded the story. She's not your typical lady in a superhero movie, and then by Iron Man 3 she's swallowing serums and putting on suits and kicking [butt] and all that stuff.
"But it would be kind of more appropriate for a character that already was like a Black Widow [to lead a movie]. It just seems like whatever Scarlett does, people want to go see it."
Johansson went on to reunite with Downey Jr in 2012 in Avengers Assemble, and Black Widow was back earlier this year in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
The actress and the character will return next year in Avengers: Age of Ultron, in which she is believed to have a much bigger role.
Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Hulk have all received their own solo movies in recent years, but Black Widow would be the first of Marvel's female characters to get their own film.
