Shortland told IndieWire that she wanted to give Natasha Romanoff’s story the feeling of a 'broken family drama,' one that had a specific 'Eastern European feel' and didn’t follow the usual 'slick' aesthetic of previous Marvel titles. Her goal, she said, was to create something that looked and felt 'like an indie movie that happened to be a big action film,' citing films like 'Capernaum' and 'Gloria Bell' as films that stuck with her while developing the feature.
