As you know, Scarlett Johansson will be entitled to her solo film dedicated to Black Widow. Gradually, details about this future production of MCU begin to leak before the official launch of production scheduled for next June. At the announcement of this new film, the fans are trying in every way to find out who will be the new villain and it seems that his identity has been discovered.
Indeed, according to information from the site We Got This Covered, it seems that Taskmaster was chosen to play this role. A naughty well known fans of comics. The latter has an incredible gift: photographic reflexes that allow him to reproduce physical movements of all those he observes.
According to rumors, Marvel would like that Moonlight actor André Holland to take this role.
As a reminder, we had to see this character in the first game of Deadpool but at the time, 20th Century Fox did not have the means to achieve this. Now, with the purchase of the Fox by Disney, it's totally workable. While everyone focuses on the coming of the X-Men or the Fantastic Four in the MCU, the eventual arrival of Taskmaster in the movie Black Widow paves the way for secondary characters that would expand the field of villains in the universe of Marvel.
EMMA WATSON AND FLORENCE PUGH TO ACCOMPANY SCARLETT?
Among the other information about the solo film Black Widow, remember that Emma Watson, the star of Harry Potter is tipped to join the cast of the film. Director Cate Shortland had advanced her name. For the moment, it is not yet known if the actress has already auditioned for the role and whether her character will be from comics or specially created for the film.
Also note that Florence Pugh would be in negotiations to integrate the casting. We do not have information about the role that she could get. It could be that she takes the one for which Emma Watson is tipped.
It only remains to wait to obtain more information on the project. We should know more this summer, at the San Diego Comic-Con. Marvel will certainly have a lot of things to unveil after the release of the last installment of the Avengers expected April 24 at the cinema and Spider-Man: Far From Home, which will mark the beginning of phase 4 of the MCU.
