Actress Scarlett Johansson, who was introduced as Black Widow in “Iron Man 2” before going on to star in “The Avengers” movies along with 2021's “Black Widow,” said that she has no plans to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the future.

“Yeah, it was awesome. It was like the best time ever. I mean, doing 'Avengers' was so much fun. I was 26 years old, I was single, it was fun! You know, I didn't have any responsibility to anybody but to just enjoy yourself," Scarlett said to Gwyneth Paltrow — who starred as Pepper Potts in the “Iron Man” movies — on “The Goop Podcast'," reports aceshowbiz.com.

“And then every couple of years, we would go back, and do it again, and all be in different places in our lives. Like, somebody would have a kid, or was getting married, or divorced, or remarried, or whatever. And it was like, I don't know, an adult summer camp thing. And it was cool. It was really, really some of the best experiences." "I'm done. Yes, I'm done. Chapter is over. I did all that I had to do. Also, coming back and playing a character again and again like that, over a decade of time, is such a unique experience."

Scarlett also had kind words for Marvel boss Kevin Feige: "He's such a lover of cinema, storytelling. He really is a fan."

Meanwhile, the pair also discussed the possibility of Gwyneth, 50, returning to the MCU. Gwyneth said: "I think so. I mean, I didn't die so they can always ask me."

Scarlett replied: “I think you may come back at some point. One-hundred per cent, that's happening. I can see it. They're never gonna let you go. Break out that wig, baby." Gwyneth quipped, "Really? 64-year-old Pepper Potts? How great."

Scarlett is an American actress. The world's highest-paid actress in 2018 and 2019, she has featured multiple times on the Forbes Celebrity 100 list. Time named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2021. Her films have grossed over $14.3 billion worldwide, making Johansson the highest-grossing box office star of all time. She has received various accolades, including a Tony Award and a British Academy Film Award, in addition to nominations for two Academy Awards and five Golden Globe Awards.  After a one-year screen absence, Johansson reprised her role as Black Widow in her own solo prequel film in 2021, on which she also served as an executive producer. Also starring Florence Pugh, the film is set after the events of Captain America: Civil War and sees Johansson's character on the run and forced to confront her past. Johansson felt that her work playing the role was then complete. She saw this as an opportunity to show her character's ability to be on her own and make choices for herself while facing difficult times and noted that her vulnerability distinguished her from other Avengers.
