once in a while 624 00:28:55,734 --> 00:28:58,693 as to where she came from and what her background is. 625 00:28:58,737 --> 00:29:00,826 NATASHA: I had this dream, 626 00:29:00,869 --> 00:29:02,871 the kind that seems normal at the time, 627 00:29:03,785 --> 00:29:05,265 but when you wake... 628 00:29:05,308 --> 00:29:06,527 What did you dream? 629 00:29:07,876 --> 00:29:09,486 That I was an Avenger. 630 00:29:11,184 --> 00:29:15,057 That I was anything more than the assassin they made me. 631 00:29:19,192 --> 00:29:22,108 In Civil War, she starts to realize 632 00:29:22,151 --> 00:29:24,632 that the Avengers are her family. 633 00:29:24,675 --> 00:29:28,767 And she makes a choice to try to preserve the family. 634 00:29:28,810 --> 00:29:31,900 NATASHA: We've made some very public mistakes. 635 00:29:31,944 --> 00:29:33,859 We need to win their trust back. 636 00:29:33,902 --> 00:29:35,556 That's what makes this character really heroic 637 00:29:35,599 --> 00:29:37,340 is that she's, kind of, dug her heels in and said, 638 00:29:37,384 --> 00:29:40,169 "Look, you know, I could kind of go down this road, 639 00:29:40,213 --> 00:29:43,607 "which would be the more desirable road personally, 640 00:29:43,651 --> 00:29:46,523 "and disappear and live off the map." 641 00:29:46,567 --> 00:29:48,308 But she chooses this, kind of, greater calling. 642 00:29:48,351 --> 00:29:51,137 NATASHA: Just because it's the path of least resistance 643 00:29:51,180 --> 00:29:53,617 doesn't mean it's the wrong path. 644 00:29:53,661 --> 00:29:55,924 Staying together is more important than how we stay together. 645 00:29:59,014 --> 00:30:00,450 ANTHONY RUSSO: Part of the reason 646 00:30:00,494 --> 00:30:04,063 why the Avengers failed inInfinity War 647 00:30:04,106 --> 00:30:08,458 is because they were divided, because of the fallout of Civil War. 648 00:30:11,070 --> 00:30:14,290 Natasha's a very strategic fighter 649 00:30:14,334 --> 00:30:20,122 and she I think is really just trying to give whatever she can 650 00:30:20,166 --> 00:30:23,604 in order to save as many people as possible. 651 00:30:26,085 --> 00:30:27,782 NATASHA: He did exactly what he said he was gonna do. 652 00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:32,395 Thanos wiped out 50% of all living creatures. 653 00:30:32,439 --> 00:30:35,877 JOE RUSSO: At the beginning of Endgame, she wants to bring it all back 654 00:30:35,921 --> 00:30:40,708 because she feels like it is the strongest emotional connection 655 00:30:40,751 --> 00:30:42,666 that she's ever had in her life. 656 00:30:42,710 --> 00:30:46,235 She's struggling to deal with the fact that they lost. 657 00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:48,672 And she hasn't stopped. 658 00:30:48,716 --> 00:30:50,892 Five years later, she's still fighting 659 00:30:50,936 --> 00:30:54,635 to figure out how to fix this problem and she hasn't let go. 660 00:30:54,678 --> 00:31:00,162 She has to do everything in her power to undo what Thanos did. 661 00:31:00,206 --> 00:31:02,469 JOE: She's presented with a choice: 662 00:31:02,512 --> 00:31:05,341 she has to give her own life to bring everyone else back 663 00:31:05,385 --> 00:31:07,430 and she does it, 664 00:31:07,474 --> 00:31:12,261 which is the most, single most heroic moment 665 00:31:12,305 --> 00:31:13,872 in the history of the Marvel Universe. 666 00:31:18,050 --> 00:31:19,181 It's okay. 667 00:31:28,364 --> 00:31:31,759 I actually think that in some weird, 668 00:31:31,802 --> 00:31:32,978 and it is a very emotional thing, 669 00:31:33,021 --> 00:31:36,633 but some weird twisted-up fateful way, 670 00:31:36,677 --> 00:31:39,114 this character who, you know, 671 00:31:39,158 --> 00:31:41,725 has searched her whole life for a purpose, 672 00:31:41,769 --> 00:31:44,467 actually finds her purpose. 673 00:31:44,511 --> 00:31:49,472 And it's like this amazing, super-emotional, beautiful thing. 674 00:31:49,516 --> 00:31:50,865 You know what I've become. 675 00:31:53,302 --> 00:31:54,390 Oh, I don't judge people 676 00:31:54,434 --> 00:31:55,870 on their worst mistakes. 677 00:32:00,092 --> 00:32:01,180 Maybe you should. 678 00:32:02,398 --> 00:32:03,530 You didn't. 679 00:32:04,792 --> 00:32:06,141 I feel very fortunate. 680 00:32:06,185 --> 00:32:08,361 It's been an incredible gift as an actor 681 00:32:08,404 --> 00:32:12,713 to be able to come back to a character that's as complex as Natasha. 682 00:32:12,756 --> 00:32:15,150 I think there's, kind of, a lot to explore there 683 00:32:15,194 --> 00:32:16,543 and that is so exciting. 684 00:32:37,477 --> 00:32:39,305 Cars are coming down the middle 685 00:32:39,348 --> 00:32:40,915 as our heroes are running this way and this way. 686 00:32:43,309 --> 00:32:45,224 CHRIS EVANS: Love the Russos. 687 00:32:45,267 --> 00:32:47,052 I remember them the first couple days on Winter Soldier. 688 00:32:47,095 --> 00:32:49,315 They really felt like the new kids on the playground. 689 00:32:49,358 --> 00:32:51,839 But everything they said they were gonna do, they delivered on. 690 00:32:51,882 --> 00:32:55,408 Their attitude kind of breeds this sort of lightness on set. 691 00:32:56,670 --> 00:32:58,411 Let's do one more. 692 00:32:58,454 --> 00:33:00,065 KEVIN FEIGE: They're the filmmakers 693 00:33:00,108 --> 00:33:01,414 that took theCaptain America series 694 00:33:01,457 --> 00:33:03,285 and elevated it with the Winter Soldier. 695 00:33:03,329 --> 00:33:05,548 "Gotta know, Cap. This isn't personal." 696 00:33:05,592 --> 00:33:06,593 And then you... 697 00:33:09,944 --> 00:33:12,033 But then did it again with Civil War. 698 00:33:12,077 --> 00:33:14,166 That film is gigantic. 699 00:33:14,209 --> 00:33:15,645 This is gonna be a great shot. 700 00:33:19,475 --> 00:33:22,043 FEIGE: We were midway through production onCivil War, 701 00:33:22,087 --> 00:33:24,698 and we saw the amazing job that Anthony and Joe were doing, 702 00:33:24,741 --> 00:33:26,134 handling all these different characters, 703 00:33:26,178 --> 00:33:28,180 telling this very unique storyline. 704 00:33:28,223 --> 00:33:30,747 It's going kind of this way right now and then the window's gonna shatter. 705 00:33:30,791 --> 00:33:32,619 Yeah.
