>O-T Fagbenle ("The Handmaiden's Tale") has joined the cast of Marvel Studios' BLACK WIDOW in an undisclosed role. Sources indicate he might be playing the main villain, described as "tough, dangerous and mysterious, but also powerful, smart and sexy", and rumored to be comics character Taskmaster, a deadly mercenary capable of perfectly mimicking the fighting patterns of any opponent.
>Scarlett Johansson headlines the cast, which also includes Florence Pugh ("Fighting with my Family") as a spy on the same level as Romanoff, but who doesn't share her moral compass; and David Harbour ("Stranger Things") and Rachel Weisz ("The Favorite") as Russian spies and contemporaries of Romanoff that have been masquerading as an affluent American couple.
>Directed by Cate Shortland, BLACK WIDOW follows Natasha Romanoff, a spy and assassin who grew up being trained by the KGB before breaking from their grasp and becoming an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Avenger. The release date is set for May 1, 2020.
If you think for a moment that your pic related wasn't a diversity hire for that role, you clearly haven't been paying attention to Hollywood.
Gavin Adams
Every other notable depiction of Taskmaster has been white or unknown.
Henry Adams
It's just too late. This should've been released after the first Avengers film. Even if they don't make it political and better than Captain Marvel, who really gives a shit? $10 bucks says they show her getting the super soldier serum and "She was always super human all along."
That it worked is fine, but he was hired for being black, not for being a good actor.
Jeremiah Ramirez
Are you fags retarded? The MCU is literally based on the Ultimate verse.
Asher Richardson
have sex, incel.
Luis King
The Ultimate verse is an SJW retcon, not canon. Fuck off,
Cameron Miller
Will me having sex make it bomb?
Daniel Anderson
explains why the movies range from mediocre to hot garbage.

it may stop you from getting your ego fix from a soulless conglomerate's success.
Benjamin Young
But what will stop you from complaining about it?
Connor Long
de-aging is dope and all but you can't de-fat somebody.. Which was one of the mine issues with Sam Jackson in Captain Marvel.. Dude gained alot of weight since 1995 and that was the give away.
The difference here is ScarJo was super duper fit in Iron Man 2.. So I'm curious how they plan to make her not look like she's gained 30 pounds.
Brody Jackson
their bankruptcy.
Jeremiah Nguyen
Actually, my ego fix is coming from neets seething about people more successful than them.
Leo Perry
# Ultimate Taskmaster is black. The MCU is based off the Ultimate comics mainly in it's aesthetic. Stop being a typical fa/tv/irgin.
Angel Sullivan
have sex.
Grayson Carter
Is that a monkey? Does that nigg-er I mean monkey ever throw shit at his jewish handlers?
Ultimate Nick Fury was designed specifically to look like Sam Jackson so it makes sense
Aiden James
I forget his character entirely. He was one of the Ultimate characters that tried to make the original character more "grounded" and "badass" and less "goofy". Most of these fell flat and I think the prime example is Ultimate Mysterio.
A lot of (white) people say it looked bad but l think it looks good and bad ass
Lucas Price
He was hired because that was part of his deal for letting Mark Millar use his likeness in Ultimate Universe, and also because it's Samuel L. Jackson. Come on, why wouldn't someone cast him if they could?
Wyatt Howard

Austin Green
Autists are ruining being racist. You sound like a retard man.
Liam Gomez
Based.
Andrew Barnes
Cool, another nigger. Minoritywashing never ends
This film sounds DC-tier = DROPPED
Benjamin Anderson
>introduce taskmaster >outside a deadpool movie hard pass. bw is the second most useless bitch the on the team. she's basically the avengers' mattress. besides, scarjo is a jew.
Jeremiah Phillips
BLACKEDwidow
Carter Russell
By having her lose it you retard
Jeremiah Sullivan
You complaining about powerlevels wont stop this movie from coming faggot. Im sorry
Gabriel Barnes
>"tough, dangerous and mysterious, but also powerful, smart and sexy"
Basically "hes perfect, has absolutely no flaws"
Jason Roberts
Blacked widow
Isaac Young
Taskmaster won't even work because hardly anyone in the MCU even has a distinct fighting style. They'd have to hire choreographers worth shit.
Connor Nguyen
Damn. I keep forgetting she's younger than I am.
Brayden Mitchell
They barely tried for the villains in Anti-Man & The Wasp and everyone ate that shit up. I doubt anyone cares at this point. They'll probably just CGI him in using some fucking N64-esque models and it'll go on to win an award just like Black Panther.
Jeremiah White
I can't tell if this is some racist asshole, some try hard edgelord 12 yrar old, or some ShareBlue false flaggers. I am just sick of this bullshit whereever it comes from.
Benjamin Bell
>I am just sick of this bullshit whereever it comes from.
go have a good cry over it, faggot.
John Lopez
Costume is more like Casey Jones than Taskmaster. Hopefully they don't go this route.
Wyatt Perry
Wow...
So they waste my favorite character on a shitty side movie and make him a black British faggot.
if you actually thought Marvel "No Costumes, No color" Films would actually use taskmaster original costume, which is probably the silliest costume ever, you are fucking retarded.
Colton Brooks
have they confirmed de-aging for scarjo in black widow?
