While
The New Mutants is set to be released this April, that Marvel movie is a remnant from Fox's time being in control of the
X-Men franchise, and
Black Widow is the first true Marvel Cinematic Universe film of 2020. Set between the events of
Captain America: Civil War and
Avengers: Infinity War, the signs are pointing to this being an exciting solo adventure for Natasha Romanoff.
Now, another Topps trading card has been revealed, and this one puts the spotlight on Scarlett Johansson's fallen Avenger. With that comes our best look yet at the hero's new costume!
With the gold belt and stingers, it's arguably the coolest suit she's had to date, while that collar definitely pays homage to some of her earliest comic book appearances. Seeing what leads to her donning that in
Black Widow promises to be a lot of fun, and it likely has something to do with her return to Russia and reunion with her fellow Widows.
Rumours continue to swirl that the movie will introduce the Thunderbolts and set the stage for future stories in the MCU despite it being set in the past, but time will tell on that front.
What do you guys think about this new look at Black Widow?

recently revealed Black Widow merchandise!
We know better than to trust LEGO sets to reveal plot details at this point but, well, that chopper is kind of cool! As you can see, the box also provides a look at some official promo art from the film.
Conspicuous by his absence is David Harbour's Red Guardian, a character you have to believe many fans would love to own as a minifgure. Perhaps that's coming somewhere down the line.
Hasbro's Marvel Legends action figures always tend to be pretty good but it's rare to see them come with this many accessories and something which can be used to get the character to strike any number of poses!
Black Widow's white costume comes straight out of the comic books and it's easy to see why Marvel Studios decided to give the hero a drastically different look in this movie after so many years of her wearing black!
There's no sign of those mysterious red vials that were spotted in the recent "Special Look" which many fans are convinced could be Pym Particles (we're pretty sure that they're related to her stingers somehow).
While this movie will more than likely mark Scarlett Johansson's final appearance in the MCU as Black Widow, it's widely believed the character will live on when Florence Pugh's Yelena Belove takes over the mantle.
We recently caught sight of those mysterious red vials in the "Special Look" at Black Widow but what are they? Some believe those are Pym Particles (which seems doubtful) but many believe they're connected to the new stingers she will don in this movie.
Paying homage to the comic books, Marvel Studios has given Natasha her white costume and it looks pretty damn badass. Those weapons she's wielding also look pretty formidable and a lot different to what we've seen her use in the past.
Taskmaster's costume has certainly been controversial among fans but he's wielding both his classic sword and shield here and there are definitely some noteworthy nods to the source material in his live-action outfit.
This version of Taskmaster has his trademark hood down and is rocking a bow and arrow and when fans spotted that in the trailer, they weirdly jumped to the conclusion that it was Hawkeye beneath the mask (which literally makes zero sense).
All the signs are pointing to David Harbour's Red Guardian stealing the show in
Black Widow and you have to hope that he will be a permanent addition to the MCU rather than a character who makes only a single appearance.
Yelena Belova is a character with a lot of big screen potential and seeing her become the new Black Widow in this shared world could be a lot of fun moving forward, especially if she winds up joining the Thunderbolts.
Now this is interesting. This version of Taskmaster comes with claws which seem similar in nature to the ones Black Panther uses. Could it be that the villain has based his fighting style on the King of Wakanda or that he is, in fact, Wakandan?
