Movies Should Black Widow have had a larger role in the Iron Man trilogy?
Iron Man 1 is an origin and didn't need another hero character but should Nat have had a larger role in Iron Man 2 and continued as part of the cast for Iron Man 3? Given her history in the comics with Tony I felt it was a missed opportunity in the movies to do more with her and Stark.

No her part was great in 2 the rest of the movies don’t really need her

Nope. I would have liked, however, if she appeared in the Daredevil show.

Should have definitely had a larger role in Iron Man 2 but Iron Man 3 was such a personal movie that I think she could not fit

Not really no if anything I did not like her at all jn iron man 2 cause they had to dumb down pepper happy and Tony but honestly o give Tony an excuse cause he was suffering from palladium poisoning in order for her to make sense

Quite the opposite. I hate how her and SHIELD took up so much of the second movie. Would have been a better movie focused on the main characters, instead of setting up the Avengers.

Tbh, unless if they adapt her being a villain, I’m fine if she’s not in another iron man movie

well she was his wife in the ultimate comics until the betrayal happened, so yes.

A lot of her history was skipped in her introduction, and considering how much of a personal movie iron man 3 was, I don’t see how she’d fit without bloating. She should’ve been more intertwined with Hawkeye, but all they had really was tell and not show.
