It’s still in development, yes, we’re working on it, but not right now because we’re all standing still and waiting for the writers’ strike to end. Right before the strike, we were in the middle of development, and now things are moving slowly.
Despite the setback, the update released by Scarlett Johansson is promising. We do not know the details of the project in question, nor when and where it will be distributed, whether it be a movie or a TV series. Just like we don’t know if this will affect Natasha Romanova.
