Three new still images from the upcoming Black Widow film have surfaced, giving a good look at Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff as well as her ally Yelena Belova (played by Florence Pugh) and the villain of the piece, Taskmaster.
The pictures debuted on Total Film magazine and were shared by GamesRadar. Black Widow was originally meant to premiere in May, but like many films, has faced numerous delays due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. New footage and details have been released sparingly as fans await the next Marvel Cinematic Universe movie.
The first of the images shows Yelena and Natasha standing together in an outdoor setting full of signs of destruction, while the second features Taskmaster in full combat gear in an armored vehicle. A third still shows Yelena alone, charging through a fiery backdrop.
In Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff of the Avengers teams up with her "sister" Yelena Belova to take on new villain Taskmaster, who is capable of mimicking the abilities and fighting styles of anyone they meet. The film takes place between the events of Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War, and it's been rumored that Robert Downey Jr. will also make a cameo, reprising his role as Tony Stark/Iron Man.
Directed by Cate Shortland, Black Widow stars Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow, Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, David Harbour as Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, O-T Fagbenle as Rick Mason and Rachel Weisz. The film is currently planned to arrive in theaters Nov. 6.
