Fresh from her Best Supporting Actress Academy Award nomination for The Favourite, Rachel Weisz (Constantine, The Mummy) looks set to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

According to Variety, Weisz is currently in talks for Marvel's Black Widow movie, although they stress that she has yet to sign on the dotted line. Should the deal go through, Weisz would star alongside Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh, and David Harbour.

Like Harbour, details on Weisz's role have not been shared, but based on those recent character breakdowns there is a strong possibility that she'll be playing one of the movie's villains.

Hat-tip to That Hashtag Show, who first mentioned Weisz in connection with this movie several weeks ago.

I always thought she would make a good Monica Rappaccini, aka Scientist Supreme. Mayne that's the way they might take her?

This is battling with Black Panther for the strongest acting ensemble for a Marvel movie.

Supposedly they are wanting Andre Holland (Moonlight) for Taskmaster.

@L0RDbuckethead - if they add Taskmaster to this movie I’ll instantly go from “eh, wait & see” to “hyped as [frick].”

Especially if they aim for some WS-esque fight choreography.
