What If? Episode 3 saw Black Widow attempting to help Nick Fury recruit other Avengers, but it didn’t go to plan. Instead, she finds herself on the run. This is a different version of Black Widow from the MCU movies, but is she still played by actor Scarlett Johansson? For those wondering who is the Black Widow voice actor in What If?, here’s the definitive answer that’s confirmed in the latest episode’s credits.
Who voices Black Widow in What If? Episode 3?
Lake Bell is the voice of Black Widow in What If? Episode 3, which means she has replaced Scarlett Johansson in this animated series.
With many lines of dialogue to analyze, diehard Scarlett Johansson fans will immediately notice the change in Black Widow’s voice. Of course, Lake Bell is an established actor herself, both in film and TV, as well as the Prototype video game.
While many of the MCU movies’ actors have reprised their roles to voice What If? characters, some have not. Clearly, Scarlett Johansson is one of the actors who has not made a return.
It’s unclear whether the ongoing pay dispute between Scarlett Johansson and Disney has resulted in her absence from the TV show, though this is unlikely as the series’ voice-overs were likely recorded months in advance.
Expect to see Lake Bell reprise the role in future episodes of What If?, if the rumors swirling around are to be believed.
In other Marvel news, the new Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer has finally been released. What’s more, it seemingly confirms the presence of the MCU’s Sinister Six.
