Rachel Weisz ‘surprised’ but ‘chuffed’ to be offered Marvel role in Black Widow
Rachel Weisz has said she was “quite surprised” but “really chuffed” to be asked to star in a Marvel film.
The actress, 51, who became a household name after starring opposite Brendan Fraser in blockbuster The Mummy, won an Oscar for her role in The Constant Gardener and has starred in a string of acclaimed films, including The Favourite, The Lobster and About A Boy.
She stars opposite Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh and David Harbour in Black Widow, the long-awaited standalone film for Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff and the first Marvel film to be directed by a solo woman, Cate Shortland.
Black Widow is out now in UK cinemas and will be available on Disney+ with Premier Access on July 9.
