Very interested in this movie. Its kinda weird that we already know her ending arc. Curious how it adds to the entire MCU.

I know they couldn't adapt this one 1:1...

But if that's Taskmaster boy is it off the rails. No skull mask at all?

That doesn't even look like a skull mask, though. It's just a helmet. I mean, it's head shaped, sure. But basically all helmets are.

Jeebus. I didn't really care about a Black Widow movie before, but if they include Taskmaster? Day one. You got me, Marvel.

Hopefully this takes place somewhere in the timeline where he has Cap's shield skills. I also hope he uses physical weapons in this one, survives, and goes on to hard light in a later movie.

Don't pull a Crossbones here and go out like a weiner, Taskmaster!

My delusional dream is that it ends with Nat waking up on Vormir after Cap returns the stone, which I know contradicts what the writers and directors have told us, but as I said, delusion.

My actual prediction is we meet other people she trained with and we're introduced to the new Black Widow sequel character.

I could actually see this making sense thematically, too.

Maybe have Black Widow investigating some assassins or whatever, and she stumbles across a Taskmaster Academy where they were trained, and that causes her to have flashbacks about being trained in The Red Room or whatever.

The lack of skull helmet is because they're probably aiming for a moving face, and they'll just CG it in onto him in the end.

I could've sworn that i read somewhere else it was taskmaster confirmed. Maybe i didn't, but i feel like Feige said it.

Hopefully it's just one of his trainees or something. I could buy that being a cheaper henchman version of his costume's theming.

It's all about branding.
