Hollywood star Florence Pugh has opened up about speculations that she might be the new "Black Widow" in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

Fans have been asking if the actress would replace Scarlett Johansson  since the MCU released trailer for "Black Widow" who laid down her life in return for infinity stone  in "Avengers:Endgame"

In a recent interview with UPROXX, Pugh, who plays Yelena Belova, said the film doesn't focus on handing over the mantle from Natasha to  Belova, adding that the movie focuses on Natasha Romanoff's story. 

"No, I actually will say when we were making it, it wasn’t anything like that at all. And I am saying it very honestly, it certainly didn’t feel like a passing of the torch kind of film when we were making it," said she.

"I think the direction and the feeling and the vibe behind it was genuinely just trying to make this complicated and painful story. And do it justice because a lot of fans have been waiting for her film. And also a lot of people I think will appreciate this story," she added.
