Back in July 2021, Johansson told Fatherly that she "has no plans to return as" the assassin-turned-Avenger, who seemingly takes her final bow in Black Widow. "I feel really satisfied with this film," she said. "It feels like a great way to go out for this chapter of my Marvel identity."
Black Widow sadly gave up her life to save others in Avengers: Endgame, and Hawkeye gave even more meaning to her Marvel Cinematic Universe death. In Hawkeye, Clint Barton's holiday plans with his kids get upended when Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld) started wearing his old Ronin outfit while fighting criminals.
On the canonical day that Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow died in the MCU, fans are paying their respects to the beloved character. Oct. 16, 2023 is a very sad day for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as it's the day Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff passes away.

Natasha chose to be the sacrifice and so, Romanoff was 39 years old when she died, but the time travel in Avengers: Endgame creates a little bit of a complication. Romanoff and Barton used the Quantum Realm to journey back to 2014 so they could beat Thanos (Josh Brolin) to the Soul Stone by 4 years.
Natalia Alianovna Romanova, more commonly known as Natasha Romanoff, is a fictional character primarily portrayed by Scarlett Johansson in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise—based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name—sometimes known by her alias, Black Widow.
The lullaby was introduced in Avengers: Age of Ultron as a way of reverting the Hulk back into Bruce Banner after a successful mission. Natasha would slowly approach the Hulk and gently touch his hand, saying “the sun's getting real low.” This would calm Hulk down enough to change him back into Banner.
She is valuable to the extent that her pain can motivate them. In Endgame, Black Widow sacrifices her life so that Clint Barton, a.k.a. Hawkeye, can retrieve the Soul Stone, which will grant the rest of the Avengers the power to bring back everyone who died when Thanos snapped his fingers during Infinity War.

I remember in my late 20s having a real shift in how I felt on set, how I felt promoting films: a little more anxiety, a little more uncertainty. You always end up questioning, Is this what I should be doing?... I just wasn't sure if I was moving closer to myself or further away.
Eventually, though, Natasha gets the upper hand on Clint for long enough to make her decision final, and go through with it. She leaps off the cliff, sacrificing her life for the Soul Stone. When the rest of the team emerges from their time travel escapades successfully, Clint returns with the stone—but torn apart.
Just like the case with the comics, Natasha abandoned the name Natalia to distance herself from the life she ran from. Leaving the Red Room behind after taking on the Black Widow mantle would have made Natasha an enemy in the eyes of many, so it would have been important to adopt a new alias.
Although her marriage with Shostakov is arranged by the KGB, it is a happy one, and Natasha is devastated by his apparent death. Their story is one of great tragedy; every time she discovers that Shostakov is alive, he is either almost immediately seemingly killed, a life-model decoy, or a villain.
