While this set of figurines doesn’t reveal anything especially new, it does mark the first set of its kind to directly promote both the Infinity Saga along with
an upcoming Phase 4
project. Natasha Romanoff has played a pivotal role over the past decade in seven MCU films (plus a cameo in the post-credits scene for
Captain Marvel
), although Black Widow will introduce the highly anticipated trio of Red Guardian, Taskmaster and Yelena Belova to the MCU for the very first time.
Black Widow
is set to take place after the events of
Captain America: Civil War
, and multiple rumors have pointed to how the film will explore Natasha’s MCU past. No specific plot points connecting this movie to the MCU’s future have been revealed, although taking into account The Direct’s recent reveal that
Yelena Belova will appear in the Disney+ series
Hawkeye
, this movie should find itself right in the thick of the overarching story.
Black Widow
is scheduled to release in theaters on May 7, 2021.
