Marvel just released six new Black Widow character posters, for Natasha Romanoff, Yelena Belova, Red Guardian, Melina Vostokoff, Rick Mason, and Taskmaster. Each one has the name of the actor playing the character at the top ... except Taskmaster. We’ve got Scarlett Johnansson, Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Rachel Weisz, O.T. Fagbenle, and ... a big empty space.

It’s a reminder that we don’t know who is playing Taskmaster in Black Widow. Is it one of the other characters in disguise? Is it a stuntman who never gets unmasked and shall remain forever anonymous? We have no idea. Anyway, we don’t want to know right now — we’d rather not have it spoiled! — but it is something that jumps out at you when you see this character posters all in a row like this:
