Black Widow movie: Rachel Weisz, David Harbour 'added' to cast

The Black Widow movie is getting two new cast members.

Reports have stated that Oscar-winner Rachel Weisz and Stranger Things star David Harbour are in the process of being added to the cast.

Variety revealed that Weisz is "heading in the direction" of signing on for a role in the film alongside Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow/Natasha Romanoff, who first debuted as the super-spy in Iron Man 2.

It is currently unknown what role Weisz will have in the film, as details are under wraps.

Meanwhile, The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that Harbour has signed on for an undisclosed role.

The actor can soon be seen in the title role of superhero film Hellboy, but we are sure joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be a dream come true.

The publication also reports that production will start in June in London.

Black Widow UK release date, cast, director, theories  

British rising star Florence Pugh was recently cast as Natasha's "moral opposite" in the film.

Little is known of the plot, but it is believed the film will be set after the end of the Soviet Union and is an international spy thriller.

Rumours have suggested that the terrifying villain known as Taskmaster will be the one to face off with Natasha in the film.

Could this be who David Harbour is playing?

Johansson will next be seen as Romanoff in the hotly-anticipated Avengers: Endgame, the tickets of which are now on sale.

Black Widow does not currently have a release date.
