As many may already know, the official Black Widow movie trailer came out on March 9th. The official movie trailer reveals a little bit more of Natasha Romanoff’s past and her tormented history. As a viewer, we also get to find out more about the Red Room, the place where Natasha was trained to become a Russian assassin. We also get to learn more about the Taskmaster, the main villain of the movie, and what he or she has planned for Natasha. 

 This movie, which comes out in theaters on May 1st, features David Harbor, who plays Alexei Shostakov, who is the Red Guardian. The Red Guardian is the Soviet equivalent to Captain America, but since Alexei had grown old and fat, he no longer has the greatest reputation. The movie also features Florence Pugh, who plays Yelena Belova, Natasha’s sister, and Rachel Weisz, who plays Melina, Natasha’s mother. 

 The movie takes place in the two years after Captain America: Civil War and before Avengers: Infinity War. During this time, we get to see more about Natasha’s background and, more specifically, the woman she was before she joined the Avengers. Sure, we had a small preview of her life back in Age of Ultron, but seeing as Natasha had a long and complicated past, that little snippet was not even close to summing up her past life. 

 Overall, many viewers, including myself, are very excited to see how this movie plays out. After all of the hype and attention the film is getting, let’s hope that Marvel doesn’t let us down!
