Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow has been an Avenger since the beginning. She debuted in 2010 in "Iron Man 2," and has since starred in every "Avengers" movie, "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," and "Captain America: Civil War." So it's about time she got her own movie. Australian filmmaker Cate Shortland will direct the solo movie, which is expected to be a prequel following the character's past as a Russian spy.

"The Rider" director Chloé Zhao is directing "The Eternals," based on legendary creator Jack Kirby's comic about god-like Celestials. The movie will likely push the MCU's cosmic stories into new territory, beyond just "Guardians of the Galaxy" or more recently, "Captain Marvel."

In a surprising reversal, Disney reinstated director James Gunn last week to direct the third "Guardians of the Galaxy" movie after firing him in July when years-old offensive tweets resurfaced. After being fired by Disney, Warner Bros. hired Gunn to write and direct a new "Suicide Squad" movie. Gunn will complete that for Warner Bros. before Marvel Studios starts production on "Guardians of the Galaxy 3."

"Short Term 12" director Destin Daniel Cretton will direct "Shang-Chi," Marvel Studios' first movie starring an Asian superhero. In the comics, he's known as the "Master of Kung-Fu."
