She says she's done I think, but Hiddleston still has a new series season slated which I'm sure he's looking forward to working on.

Black Widow I felt did have a development in the movies, just not an arc as much. She was introduced as a cold agent but warmed up with the team more and more between the avengers and CA movies. I felt the backstory depiction in her own movie surmised that development well.
..What mirror universe?

I had two problems with the Black Widow movie.

1) She was already dead. It needed to have been released before Endgame.
2) We have already had a much better Black Widow prequel movie. It was called ''Red Sparrow'' and starred Jennifer Lawrence.

I liked Red Sparrow better when it was called the X-Men first Class universe.

Really though the movie was fine despite the universe, which I found really appreciative. The main villain's purpose wasn't different enough from another movie that came out at the same time, but it was only like 7% of the grade I think.
