Black Cat (Felicia Hardy) appears in comic books published by Marvel. Created by Marv Wolfman, Keith Pollard, and Dave Cockrum, the character first appeared in TAmazing Spider-Man #194. Felicia Hardy is the daughter of Walter Hardy, a world-renowned cat burglar. After suffering from a traumatic assault by an ex-boyfriend as a college freshman, she trained herself in various fighting styles and acrobatics and, after deciding to follow in her father’s footsteps, adopted the costumed identity of the Black Cat. She has the subconscious ability to affect probability fields, producing “bad luck” for her enemies. Throughout her history, Black Cat has sometimes been an enemy, love interest, and an ally of the superhero Spider-Man.

Black Cat has been featured in many media adaptations related to Spider-Man, including animated series and video games. Felicity Jones played Felicia Hardy in the 2014 film Amazing Spider-Man 2.

In March 2017, Sony Pictures was developing a Black Cat and Silver Sable-centered film with writer Christopher Yost, with Jones intended to reprise her role as Hardy from Amazing Spider-Man 2. It was intended to be a part of a shared universe called Sony’s Spider-Man Universe, which is centered on characters from the Spider-Man mythology and began with the live-action film Venom in 2018. The films were to be more adult-oriented and despite taking place in the “same reality” as the Marvel Cinematic Universe, would not crossover with each other. In May 2017, it was announced that Gina Prince-Bythewood would direct the film, now titled Silver & Black. Production was supposed to begin in March 2018, but has since been delayed “indefinitely”. Prince-Bythewood said the cause of the delay was script issues. In August 2018, Sony announced that Silver & Black was canceled in favor of having both characters starring in their own feature films. Black Cat was reportedly a re-worked version of the Silver & Black script while the studio were searching for screenwriters for Silver Sable. Prince-Bythewood would have served as a producer on both projects. As of April 2020, the film is now believed to be cancelled in favor of the proposed television series.
