Black Widow saw its first trailer released earlier this morning, and fans are definitely buzzing after it. With the last MCU film in Avengers: Endgame, you knew Marvel Studios was going to wait a little while to release the trailer of the next film. When Black Widow hits theaters, it’ll actually be over one year since we last saw an MCU film, and after Endgame delivered, it was an understandable delay. The new trailer we were given today, however, gave fans plenty to look forward to – including the first look at a new villain in Taskmaster!
Check out the screen-grabs – as well as fan reaction below.

let’s not pretend like we’re going to lose faith in Marvel simply because Taskmaster look a tad bit off (even tho by the end he’ll probably be looking more comic accurate) pic.twitter.com/br3ayJmc2W

Whose goons are these? Does Taskmaster have goons? I always thought of him as a solo act/mercenary. Maybe they’re someone else’s goons. Tough to tell but that design seems pretty specific. It’s the first moment that makes me wonder what this movie is actually about. pic.twitter.com/HorCmU5OGo

/ I hope that ain’t the final design for Taskmaster, because it looks like crap. pic.twitter.com/iwE3K1oWeM

Wow, Taskmaster’s design is extremely ugly.

Can you guys bully Marvel/Disney into fixing Taskmaster the way you bullied a whole studio into fixing Sonic? https://t.co/YCJHcO57F0

Besides not wearing the hood, Taskmaster does look neat. Also there’s his shield, but will we see him with his sword? #blackwidowtrailer pic.twitter.com/XKXeJN2rQz

As you can see, some of the reaction for Taskmaster’s look isn’t that positive, but we’ll wait to see the final product when Black Widow hits theaters on May 1st.
