Natasha/Tony, also known as Iron Widow or Tonynat, is the het pairing of Natasha Romanova (Black Widow) and Tony Stark (Iron Man) in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Marvel Comics fandoms. They had a canonical relationship in Marvel 616 and Marvel Ultimates, but not within the MCU.

Canon

MCU

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Black Widow first appears in the movie Iron Man 2 posing as "Natalie Rushman", a Stark Industries employee under Pepper Potts and intrigues Tony Stark's interest throughout the film. It is later revealed that she was assigned to evaluate Tony Stark for the Avengers Initiative by Nick Fury and SHIELD. They both later have a significant role in the movie The Avengers.

Fandom

Natasha/Tony is one of the smaller pairings shipped in MCU fandom, which started after Iron Man 2 premiere.
