Black Widow News and Speculation Thread

I think the point is pretty clear; first movie of Phase 4, thus holds an important position.

Re: the 'passing the torch' thing, I'm still seeing Pugh appearing as a side character throughout the next decade or so rather than helming a Black Widow film trilogy, but I won't be all too fussed if they end up going that route. If anything I think they'll use her as sort of the sympathetic inside window into the Thunderbolts program to keep them humanized essentially for a redemption arc.

Also, if I may pitch a hypothesis after noticing something: O-T Fagbenle is playing Taskmaster (I know, hot take) and his character is half Wakandan, perhaps another child of a wardog spy. I say this because he does the Wakandan salute in the trailer when he whips out the claws, but if the events of this movie happen shortly after Civil War (making it concurrent with most of Black Panther's events except the mid-credits scene) then presumably only Wakandans know what that gesture means. I know the crossed arms are somewhat universal (that was 2017 Wonder Woman's signature move) but it's not like the gesture needs to occur to operate the claws or something, and this is the MCU...
 
Seems almost arbitrary to do it for part of a movie. What do they do for the rest of the movie?
 
Ahhh, watching trailers in a theatre. I remember those times.

Most movies shot in IMAX only do so for part of the movie, and the aspect ratio changes when not an IMAX part. Even TDK. And on a real IMAX screen, it was absolutely worth it.
 
Best guess when the next trailer drops?
I don't think there will be another trailer. The one that was dropped in March was meant to be the final trailer so they'll probably just reuse that one since I'm not even sure it got a theatrical run, at least not for long.
 
good

if the action sequences are in imax as well, i'll wait, then again we could all be in like this if people don't wear masks :whatever:
 
anyone else feeling this is going to be moved to 2021 - either February or May...?

If they're adamant about a theatrical release in the United States, then yes, I'm increasingly thinking it'll be postponed. At this rate it seems like short of instating another nation-wide lockdown, the U.S. situation is just going to continue spiraling out of control until either some form of herd immunity is reached (if that's even possible with this virus) or the eventual vaccine works and gets widely distributed, at which point we'd probably be into late 2021 or early 2022 at best.

Haven't outdoor drive-in theaters been doing relatively well in the last few months though? I know few if any new films have been released this way but big blockbusters that people want to see (like Jurassic Park) are making a decent amount of money that way. Maybe a mixed media release depending on the country (e.g., Disney+ for Americans and actual theatrical runs in safer parts of the world)? Or would the numbers just not add up? I'm honestly just fine with waiting however long it takes given the more serious matters of the world, but I'm just spitballing hypotheticals to see how viable they are.
 
Well New Mutants and Tenet are suppose to be the testing movies I guess. Theaters are not open yet where I live, but when they do I might check Tenet out. Thinking you would have to wear mask and they have less seats but more showings.

Black Widow Reflects The Time’s Up Era And Is About ‘Women Helping Women’, Says Scarlett Johansson – Exclusive Image
 
At this point I hope they do just push it back to March or April of next year
 
I’m all for a theatrical release in 2021 just as long as it’s after the vaccine comes out, proven effective, and distributed to the majority of the population.
