黑寡婦明星OT Fagbenle透露，他幾乎扮演了電影的中央小人Taskmaster

作為角色，Taskmaster從Marvel漫畫到達MCU時發生了巨大變化。

O-T Fagbenle, best known for his role as Black Widow's ally Rick Mason, revealed that he almost played a drastically different version of Taskmaster in the Scarlett Johansson-led Marvel Studios blockbuster.

OT Fagbenle以他擔任Black Widow的盟友Rick Mason的角色而聞名，他透露，他在Scarlett Johansson領導的Marvel Studios Blockbuster中幾乎玩過截然不同的Taskmaster。

In an exclusive interview with The Direct, promoting his appearance in The Handmaid's Tale Season 6, Fagbenle admitted that he originally auditioned to play a different take on Taskmaster in the film.

Fagbenle在對《直銷》第6季中的獨家採訪，宣傳他在《女僕的故事》第6季中的露面時承認，他最初試鏡在電影中對Taskmaster進行了不同的看法。

According to the MCU star, he was in the running to play the movie's primary villain, Taskmaster (who just came back in Thunderbolts*), rather than Mason, before the character was changed into the original to the MCU version seen in the film.

根據MCU明星的說法，他正在跑步播放電影的主要反派，任務策師（剛剛以雷電*回到雷電*），而不是梅森，然後角色變成了電影中的MCU版本。

"I first auditioned for Taskmaster, and it was this, it was a really incredible speech, actually. It was an audition I was very proud of. I've still got it in the back someplace. And, he was this - I made him with an African accent, and he was this kind of maniacal-like character."

“我首先參加了任務管理員的試鏡，實際上，這是一個非常令人難以置信的演講。這是我感到非常自豪的試鏡。我仍然把它放在後面的地方。他就是這樣 - 我是這樣的 - 我以非洲的口音使他，他就是這種瘋狂的角色。”

He said that it ultimately came down to him or someone else for the part, but as Black Widow changed in development, "that version of Taskmaster went away" and he was offered the chance to play Rick Mason:

他說，這最終歸結於他或其他人，但是隨著黑寡婦在發展中發生變化，“任務主管消失了”，他有機會扮演里克·梅森（Rick Mason）：

"And in the various iterations of the movie, that version of Taskmaster went away, and then they just came to me and was like, 'Hey, there is this character called Mason, do you want to play Mason?'... So I was like, 'Hell yeah,' I'd love to play Mason!' And so, the Taskmaster that I was going to be didn't exist in that iteration of 'Black Widow.'"

“在電影的各種迭代中，Taskmaster的版本消失了，然後他們只是來找我，就像，'嘿，有這個名為Mason的角色，您想扮演Mason嗎？因此，在“黑寡婦”的迭代中，我將不存在的任務主管。

When asked about whether he would be interested in bringing his version of Taskmaster to the MCU in the future, perhaps in a potential 'What If?' scenario, Fagbenle hopes there will be "another opportunity...to pull that maniac out of the bag:"

當被問及他是否有興趣將自己的任務主管帶到MCU上時，也許有潛在的“如果？”場景，Fagbenle希望將會有“另一個機會……將這種瘋子從包中拉出：”

"Oh man, I tell you... The character I created for that was something I've not done before, or something people have not seen me do before. I was being really hyped. But anyway, there'll be another opportunity for me to pull that maniac out of the bag and put it on screen."

“哦，伙計，我告訴你……我為此創造的角色是我以前從未做過的事情，或者人們以前從未見過我。

As for the character Fagbenle did play, Rick Mason, it is unclear where his rogue SHIELD agent will pop up next. Mason was last heard from in 2023's Secret Invasion, where he cameoed in a scene with Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury.

至於Fagbenle確實扮演的角色Rick Mason，他的Rogue Shield經紀人接下來會在哪裡出現。梅森最後一次在2023年的秘密入侵中聽到，他在塞繆爾·傑克遜（Samuel L Jackson）的尼克·弗里（Nick Fury）的場景中客串。

"When they give me the call [I'm ready to go]," the MCU star remarked, looking ahead at his character's potential Marvel Studios future:

MCU明星說：“當他們給我打電話時（我準備好去）。

"Listen, this what I said to Eric [Pearson], I said, 'Why are you leaving me out of 'Thunderbolts,' man? I did come back. I did some 'Secret Invasion,' Mason appeared there. And so, yeah, I mean, like a true superhero, when they give me the call [I'm ready to go]."

“聽著，我對埃里克（Pearson）說的話，我說，'你為什麼要讓我退出'雷電，'伙計？我回來了。我做了一些'秘密入侵，梅森出現在那裡。

Black Widow is streaming on Disney+, marking Scarlett Johansson's final appearance as the dangerous Red Room assassin turned renowned superhero Natasha Romanoff. The film follows Johansson's Marvel character in the wake of Captain America: Civil War, as she confronts some ghosts from her past with the help of her super-powered found family.

黑寡婦正在迪斯尼+上播放，標誌著斯嘉麗·約翰遜（Scarlett Johansson）的最後一次露面，因為危險的紅色房間刺客變成了著名的超級英雄娜塔莎·羅曼諾夫（Natasha Romanoff）。這部電影跟隨約翰遜在美國隊長：內戰之後的奇蹟角色，因為她在超級驅動的找到家人的幫助下面對了過去的一些鬼魂。

Johansson led the movie, starring alongside O-T Fagbenle, Florence Pugh, David Harbour, and Rachel Weisz, and was directed by Berlin Syndrome filmmaker Cate Shortland.

約翰遜（Johansson）領導了這部電影，並與OT Fagbenle，Florence Pugh，David Harbour和Rachel Weisz一起出演，並由柏林綜合徵電影製片人Cate Shortland執導。

Will O-T Fagbenle's Taskmaster Ever Be Seen in the MCU?

OT Fagbenle的Taskmaster會在MCU中看到嗎？

Hearing again that Black Widow star O-T Fagbenle was once eyed to play Taskmaster in the movie will almost surely get fans pondering the idea, wondering how the movie would have been different had the Rick Mason actor portrayed the Marvel Comics villain.

再次聽到《黑寡婦》明星OT Fagbenle曾經註視著在電影中扮演Taskmaster，幾乎肯定會讓粉絲在思考這個想法，想知道如果Rick Mason演員描繪了Marvel Comics Villain，這部電影會有何不同。

If Marvel Studios wanted to explore that possibility, there has been no better time in the MCU than now to revisit the idea.

如果Marvel Studios想探索這種可能性，那麼在MCU中沒有比現在更好的時間來重新審視這個想法了。

The Taskmaster fans ultimately got in Black Widow, which is now dead in the super-powered series (after taking a bullet in the head in Thunderbolts*), leaving a void should the studio want to take a more comic-accurate stab at the character.

Taskmaster的球迷最終進入了黑寡婦，該寡婦現在在超級動力的系列賽中死亡（在雷電（Thunderbolts）的頭上戴著一顆子彈*之後），如果工作室想對角色進行更漫畫的刺激，就會留下空白。

It would be messy to introduce another Taskmaster in the prime MCU timeline so quickly after the first iteration's death, but Marvel Studios has some strings it could pull. The MCU is currently in the midst of its Multiverse Saga, which will conclude with 2027's Avengers: Secret Wars (read more about Avengers: Secret Wars here).

第一次迭代去世後，在Prime MCU時間軸上介紹另一位任務主管將是一團糟，但是Marvel Studios可以拉一些字符串。 MCU目前正在其Multiverse Saga中間，該傳說將以2027年的《復仇者聯盟：秘密戰爭》結束（閱讀有關《復仇者聯盟：秘密戰爭》的更多信息）。

In the Secret Wars story, different versions of Earth's Mightiest Heroes take on villains from across the Multiverse, including Variants of characters fans have already seen. This could include a new take on Black Widow'
