Rabat – The shooting of Marvel’s next movie, Black Widow, will have A-list Hollywood stars such as Scarlett Johannsen packing their bags for Morocco.
According to online outlet HN Entertainment, Black Widow will be the latest of many blockbuster films to shoot in Morocco. The movie will also feature scenes shot in Norway, England, and Hungary.
While Morocco’s famous scenery is often used as a backdrop in movies to simulate other locations, it’s likely that the movie will actually feature Morocco as a plot point.
The comic book version features Morocco as the location of some major events in the story, including the transformation of Marc Spector, a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
The movie will be released on May 1, 2020. It will be the 24th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) series.
The film is directed by Cate Shortland, written by Jac Schaeffer and Ned Benson, and stars Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow, alongside David Harbour, Florence Pugh, O-T Fagbenle, and Rachel Weisz.
