Marvel Studios has released one final theatrical trailer for Black Widow ahead of its May 1st release date. This trailer puts the spotlight on one of the films main villains, Taskmaster. The identity of this new villain has been kept a closely guarded secret which leads me to believe he is someone we have seen before or will be introduced to as a friend to Natasha in the film only to betray her at some point. Apparently he is in charge of the Red Room, which is where Black Widows are raised and trained to be assassins. It would seem his battle memory ability from the Marvel comics is at the fore as we see him use a shield similar to Cap’s and a bow similar to Hawkeye’s. The film looks like it will be a welcome addition to the ever expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe. Check out the trailer below and leave us a comment with your thoughts.
