already kind-of seen the
A-Force in action for a
couple minutes, when all
the MCU women came
together to ght Thanos.
- BLACK WIDOW
Not only is a Black Widow
movie set to start lming in
June, but Scarlett Johansson
is expected to reprise her
role as Natasha Romanoff/
Black Widow. The only
kink in this plan is that her
character died in Endgame, a
living trade for the
Soul Stone. This movie
can either be a prequel set
in Black Widow’s dark,
shadowy past or it could
bring her back to the
present somehow.
Either way, it sounds
interesting. Black Widow has
always been someone with
more darkness than light in
her past, so exploring that
might shed some light on
a character that could use
some eshing out.
- ASGARDIANS
OF THE GALAXY
I’m very excited to see what
the future holds for the
Guardians, especially now
that they have a certain
melted-ice-cream-looking
Asgardian on the team. Star
Lord was last seen looking
for Gamora’s past self, who
went missing after the huge
battle at the fallen Avengers
compound. We can only
assume the team will go
after her next, this time with
the god of lightning in tow.
The Asgardians of
the Galaxy have some
basis in the comic,
being a team of gods and
monsters, but it can’t have
just one Asgardian. Can we
assume a certain trickster
god might make
a re-appearance?
- AVENGERS+
Outside of con rmed
character movies, Disney’s
upcoming streaming
service Disney+ already
has a slate of MCU shows
in the pipeline.
First up, Loki, with Tom
Hiddleston will be reprising
the role. Then there’s
WandaVision, led by the
powerful duo of Scarlet
Witch and Vision. The only
thing is that both Loki and
Vision were killed off in
In nity War. Just like the
Black Widow movie, there
are three ways this can pan
out: ressurection, alternate
Earth/timeline, or prequel.
Except in Vision’s case,
there is no prequel since the
character was only created
during Age of Ultron.
There’s also the
upcoming The Falcon and
The Winter Soldier series,
but at this point it might as
well be renamed ‘Captain
America and The Winter
Soldier’. There’s a lot of
potential here, providing
our rst taste of what a Sam
Wilson Captain America is
going to be like. Sam and
Bucky have never been the
best of pals, so it’ll be fun to
see them getting along.
