Black Widow Scarlett Johansson Age of Ultron Avengers

Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow will soon face off against new operatives from the Red Room program.

It seems like Yelena Belova, Taskmaster and Iron Maiden won’t be the only operatives that Natasha Romanoff will take on during Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow. New casting information revealed that several other actresses would be joining Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow when it arrives on May 1, 2020. Although no character details were confirmed, it appears as if the Red Room program is coming back to haunt Natasha in the wake of Captain America: Civil War.

The actresses names appeared on the Black Widow IMDB page, and are even already present on the Black Widow poster created by Andy Park that debuted at Disney’s D23 Expo. This implies that they’ll be playing other operatives that Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff will have to take down. Simona Zivkovska, Yolanda Lynes, Jade Ma, and Shaina West all confirmed their appearances in Black Widow on their social media accounts.

Full plot details on Black Widow are currently under wraps, though it has been revealed that the film is set after the events of Captain America: Civil War and will see Scarlett Johansson’s Nathasha Romanoff take on the villainous Taskmaster. The film will also mark the Marvel Cinematic Universe debut of Yelena Belova, the second modern-era character to use the Black Widow title in the comics.

Directed by Cate Shortland from a script written by Jac Schaeffer and Ned Benson, Black Widow stars Scarlett Johansson, David Harbour, Florence Pugh, O-T Fagbenle, and Rachel Weisz. Production is currently underway.

Black Widow arrives in theaters on May 1, 2020. Stay tuned for the latest news on Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr. and the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
