She's the front runner for the role according to Variety, the English actress who starred in 'The Devil Wears Prada' and 'Charlie Wilson's War' heads the list of female hopefuls for the role of the Soviet spy Natasha Romanova AKA The Black Widow, in the much anticpated Iron Man Sequel.
In the comic books Romanova is a skilled sniper and martial aritst who has an advanced suit of weaponry, she has at times been a foe of top Marvel heroes as well as alligned with them, mainly the Avengers.
If Blunt lands the role she will most likely join comeback king Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell, along with original cast members Robert Downey Jr and Gwyneth Paltrow.
