Everyone has their own opinion, of course, but there seem to be certain absolute truths about the MCU‘s Phase Four that virtually every Marvel fan out there agrees with: Spider-Man: No Way Home was amazing, Thor: Love and Thunder was terrible, and the way Black Widow handled its main villain was the worst waste of a classic comic book antagonist since Iron Man 3‘s Mandarin.
While few seemed perturbed that Marvel had reimagined them as female (for once), everyone was left furious that Antonia Dreykov, aka Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko), was ultimately revealed to be a brainwashed stooge for her evil father Anton (Ray Winstone). Out of all the characters returning for summer 2024’s Thunderbolts flick, then, Taskmaster is not the one fans are most excited to see again.
