It turned out that we could have had a completely different version of Taskmaster in Marvel Cinematic University, and things went in another way. This is because another actor was tested for this role, and an actor who ended up playing another entire person in “Black Widow”. The actor concerned is OT FAGBENLE, who played the role of shield agent Rick Mason in the movie 2021. But before he longed on the party, he almost had a bad young man in Natasha Romanoff from Scarlett Johansson.

In a recent interview with DirectFagbeenle confirmed that he tested him to play Taskmaster in “Black Widow”. Ultimately, the role went to Olga Corelino (“” quantity of condolences “). Fagbeenle previously In 2021, he confirmed that he tested a different character in Marvel StudiosBut he refused to determine who was at that time. Now, the curtain is pulled on what happened behind the scenes. This is what he said on this topic:

“I was first tested for Taskmaster, and this was, it was a really incredible speech, in fact. It was a test I was proud of. I am still at the back somewhere. This-I made it in an African accent, and this type of mobs was.”

It took a long time to take the movie “Black Widow”With different repetitions of the text program that is placed together during the development process. So not only that a different actor played a role. As Fagbeenle tells her, this would have been completely going into the character.

“I told (I said) that (the role) I liked,“ Am I or another person. ”This kind of things for this version of Taskmaster. In the various repetitions of the film, this version went from Taskmaster, and then they came to me,“ Hey, there is a character called Mason, do you want to play the role of Mason? Thus, Taskmaster was not that I would have been in the repetition of the “black widow”. “

While miles will differ from person to person, a copy of Taskmaster that we got is not especially lucky in terms of mcuIn the great scheme of things. The character is famous for accurately simulating enemies. There is a strong feeling that the version played by Kurylenko was lost, somewhat.

Not entering the spoiler area here, But her last appearance in “Thunderbolts” did not do much to help matters. There is no need to return in time and wonder whether Marvel has taken the correct choice or not. With a diversity towards the future, Fagbeen revealed that he is ready to withdraw the character he created for Taskmaster test at some point in the future, even if Marvel:

“The character I created for this thing was not done before, or something that people did not see me before. I was really prepared. But in any case, there will be another opportunity for me to withdraw this field from the bag and put it on the screen.”

Who knows what the future hides? The MCU’s Multiverse Epic presented a great opportunity to see different versions of the same characters on the screen. and If MCU gets a soft restart after “secret wars”, “ Familiar characters can get new rental contracts. Taskmaster may be brought to life again below the line. It does not seem like it is likely to be behind the mask, but the strange things have occurred. The actor concluded that he was ready to return to MCU, most likely like Rick Mason, the more the call comes.

Hear, this is what I said to Arik (Pearson), I said, “Why do you leave me from” thunderbolt “, man? I had returned. I did some “secret invasion”, Mason appeared there. Thus, yes, I mean, like the real superhero, when they gave me the call (I am ready to go). “
