Black Widow featuring Scarlett Johansson to release in India before US

Scarlett
Johansson’s Black Widow will release in India on April 30, 2020 – a day before its
release in the US. Marvel Studios’ Black Widow will open in India in six
languages – English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.

Bikram
Duggal, Head – Studio Entertainment, Disney India said, “Over the last few
years, Marvel movies have brought about an entertainment revolution in the
country. Every superhero from Marvel – be it Iron Man, Captain America, Thor,
Hulk and even the newer members like Black Panther, Doctor Strange and Captain
Marvel – have become household names”.

 Black Widow is one such character who has been
integral to the Marvel journey and has been a fan favourite, especially in
India. We have seen Natasha Romanoff as a spy, assassin and an Avenger; but she
remains a mystery and fans now want to know her origin story more than ever.
And as a special treat for these fans, we are releasing Black Widow a day prior
to the US,” Duggal added.

The film
will trace the story of Natasha Romanoff, who will confront her past. The film
will start a new phase for Marvel after ‘Avengers: Endgame’.

It is being
reported that actor Robert Downey Jr will be back as the mysterious superhero
Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Black Widow.

The
characters will be back as Black Widow is a prequel, taking place ahead of the
events of Endgame. It’s unknown how big Downey Jr’s role in the film will be.
