The standalone film will revolve around the Avenger Natasha Romanoff, otherwise known as the Black Widow. --- The former assassin turned superhero has a dark and mysterious past that has been alluded to several times during the MCU run. Now, fans get to dive into that story and learn what made Black Widow and why her past haunts her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=76&v=ybji16u608U&feature=emb_title [www.youtube.com]() The new trailer also featured more of the movie's villain, the Taskmaster. The Taskmaster has the ability to learn and mimic the fighting style of anyone he faces. In the first trailer we see him take aim with a bow and arrow which means he must have gone up against Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye. But in the new trailer, we see other Avengers mimicked by the Taskmaster. At the 1:12 mark, we see Taskmaster give the ole Wakanda Forever salute, prompting fans to wonder if there will be an appearance by Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa, also known as Black Panther. Also, we see Taskmaster pull out a very iconic tool of one of the Avengers. That's right, he uses (pretty proficiently) a shield as a weapon just like Captain America. https://twitter.com/FandomWikis/statuses/1237034787803545600 Taskmaster is considered Marvel's ultimate copycat In the new #BlackWidow trailer you can see him: - Studying Natasha's moves in 'Iron Man 2' - Throwing a shield like Cap - Mimicking Black Panther - Shooting a bow and arrow like Hawkeye https://fandom.link/taskmaster pic.twitter.com/NMUXG7FNKd [twitter.com]() Speaking of the Captain, the movie features his old Soviet counterpart. Played by Stranger Things star David Harbour, the Red Guardian has a big role in the movie as one of Black Widow's family members. The premise of the movie seems to be that the Taskmaster has taken control of the Red Room (used to create Black Widow assassins) and Black Widow and her family must do battle to stop him. Rounding out the superhero family are Rachel Weisz and Florence Pugh. The movie is supposed to be set after Captain America: Civil War, and has Romonoff alone and dealing with a sinister force that is using her past against her. She must battle both the Taskmaster and her past in order to prevail. It sounds like this will be another great Marvel action flick! Black Widow hits theaters on May 1st, 2020. ## Author Joslin Joseph is senior contributor for We Are The Mighty covering sports, entertainment, news, and history.
