10 Marvel Villains GUARANTEED To Join MCU
8. Taskmaster
Taskmaster is one of the most interesting villains in the Marvel Universe due to his ability to perfectly mimic the moves of his opponent. All he has to do is see someone using their moves, and he can match and counter them, making him a particularly difficult foe to defeat.
Thanks to a brief shot in the Black Widow trailer, his appearance has been confirmed, though the actor playing him remains a guarded secret. Granted, it's not a well-guarded secret, thanks to the casting announcement indicating Olivier Richters will be playing an undisclosed role.
In all likelihood, he's going to be taking on the role of Taskmaster, and he will be going up against Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow as well as David Harbour's Red Guardian, and other allies of Natasha Romanoff.
Taskmaster has been a villain to more than a few heroes in the Marvel Universe, so his appearance in the Black Widow movie isn't surprising. In the comics, he's been a foe to the likes of Spider-Man, Nick Fury, Iron Man, Ant-Man, the Avengers as a whole, and a plethora of other heroes.
If he survives the film, he may return in any number of MCU projects.
