Black Widow Trailer Reveals Marvel Movie’s Plot (& Villain Taskmaster’s New Skills)

The final trailer for Black Widow has arrived. After releasing a pair of billion dollar hits and the highest-grossing film of all time last year, Marvel Studios is coming back with Black Widow, the first movie in Phase 4 of the MCU. Set between the events of Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War, the film follows Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff on a solo adventure that forces her to fully reckon with her past, bringing her face to face with the family she left behind. Director Cate Shortland brought her experience helming dramatic thrillers like Berlin Syndrome to the table here, giving the movie a darker edge that will hopefully make it a fitting end to Natasha's story following her death in Avengers: Endgame.

With an impressive supporting cast that includes Florence Pugh, David Harbour, and Rachel Weisz, Black Widow is easily one of the most anticipated movies of 2020 as a whole. Even with concerns about the impact of the global coronavirus outbreak, the film is projected to open with $115 million in the U.S., thanks to an exciting marketing campaign that has spotlighted Pugh's turn as Natasha's fellow Red Room trainee Yelena Belova and the mystery villain Taskmaster. It appears Marvel has no intention of slowing down the hype train at this stage, either.

Marvel Studios has dropped the final trailer for Black Widow online, before it begins screening in theaters over the next few weeks. Take a look, below.
