This year, the folks over at Marvel Studios have their work cut out for them. Not only will the studio be releasing a slew of films throughout 2017 but the company is also hard at work behind-the-scenes. Production is finally underway on Avengers: Infinity War, and the movie will bring climatic action to a cinematic universe that’s a decade in the making. The blockbuster will bring together Earth’s mightiest heroes and a slew of other MCU heroes. And, if a new Instagram post has anything to say, fans may see Black Widow partake in some action with the Winter Soldier.

Over on social media, fans began to speculate whether Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan might share some on-screen action when Don Saladino uploaded a photo of the pair. The trainer, who has worked with Stan on his previous Marvel films, posted a picture of his ‘gym mafia’ working out, and the crew includes Stan and Johansson.
As expected, the photo’s caption itself does not give much away in terms of information; Rather, the description simply describes Saladino’s tips for working out ahead of the impending holiday weekend. Saladino captioned the workout shot as such:
“This weeks topic Is called “Holiday Prep”. Memorial Day weekend is only a few days away and I see that a lot of people are starting to panic about falling off there diets. This week I’m going to prep every one to make sure that they go into the weekend feeling 100% and looking even better. I will be introducing a few tricks that will help you avoid feeling terrible after the weekend. I also want you to have some fun so stay tuned for some easy to incorporate secrets that I use.”
Still, fans feel certain that the duo’s shared workout routine isn’t a mere coincidence. Last week, Stan had fans buzzing about his reprisal of the Winter Soldier when he posted a vague picture on Instagram. The actor simply shared a selfie with the caption “WS” and it looks like the backside of a green-screen is seen behind him. Fans have yet to see the actor don Bucky Barnes’ metal arm as of yet, but it could come with any set photo.
As for Johansson, there has been no sightings of her filming on-location for Avengers: Infinity War as of yet. However, the actress has talked about the film’s production. Speaking with MTV News, the starlet admitted she can’t think far beyond the massive project. “I’m still trying to wrap my head around the Infinity War, which the production is an infinity,” she explained.
