The interview with Pearson will take a look at how Pearson and the team at Marvel Studios (which included WandaVision head writer Jac Schaeffer) filled in the blanks for Natasha Romanoff’s past as they were delivered in Black Widow after years of questions and mystery. Pearson also dives into how the film both offers closure for Natasha’s MCU run and simultaneously catapults Yelena Belova into being one of the key characters for the future. Additionally, there is a detailed conversation about the reveal of Taskmaster’s identity, the post-credits scenes, and more.
