Black Widow action scenes

Who doesn’t love Marvel action scenes? Each movie has fight sequences that are out of this world good. Black Widow won’t be any different. We’ve seen Black Widow in action before, but you can bet that she’ll be even better here. She’s going to give us the moves we’ve seen and hopefully add in some new surprises as well. That’s on top of Yelena Belova and other fighters from the Red Room to look forward. Their training will be similar, but certainly upgraded over the years.

We also have Taskmaster – who will have all of the fighting styles from the Avengers (and who knows who else). It wouldn’t be surprising if he used the Black Knights’ moves as well.

Moments to further the MCU

Black Widow was supposed to be released in 2020. Due to the pandemic, it kept getting pushed back. There must have been a plan to connect this movie with other projects. Because of that, we’re more than likely going to see things that connect to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Even though Black Widow takes place before the Avengers: Endgame, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t connect to the TV shows that are out now or the movies that come out in the future. Taskmaster might have a connection to The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. And let’s not forget that WandaVision showed us that Skulls are hiding in plain sight. Perhaps we could see more of them here as well – especially with the announcement that Secret Invasion is coming to Disney Plus.
