There is a nice gap of mystery in Black Widow’s costume and overall appearance, in the span of time between when she goes underground after Captain America: Civil War, and when she resurfaces wearing a whole new costume and sporting a short blonde hairdo by the time she resurfaces again in Avengers: Infinity War. That’s the missing gap of time in which this story of the Black Widow movie will take place, leaving plenty of room for Natasha to sport a costume that fits in between her Civil War and Infinity War suits. After all, this is Disney/Marvel Studios we’re talking about, and new Black Widow toys are going to need to be sold alongside this solo film: new toys mean new costumes.

However, looking at the set photos themselves, it’s hard to tell if this is truly a full-fledged new Black Widow costume that Natasha is wearing in this scene, or a some kind of specialty suit for a specific function or mission goal. A Skydiving suit or stolen enemy uniform are always possibilities in an espionage movie (see: Mission: Impossible), so it’s probably best not to jump too far into any big conclusions, yet.

David Harbour, Rachel Weisz and Florence Pugh, will co-star in Black Widow, in the Marvel Comics roles of Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, Melina, and Yelena Belova / Black Widow II.
