Kareena Kapoor is all set to play Black Widow in Marvel’s Wastelanders

Along with Kareena Kapoor, her husband Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Sharad Kelkar are also part of the highly anticipated project.

Kareena Kapoor playing Black Widow in Marvel’s Wastelanders is the latest big thing that we didn’t even realise was coming! In the new Hindi audible original podcast which also stars Kareena’s husband Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Sharad Kelkar, among others. But who plays security Analyst Lisa Cartwright? Well, it’s none other than Masaba Gupta.

Talking about her experience, Kareena stated to a leading daily, “I’m absolutely delighted to be a part of it. This character actually, the more I read it, I said, ‘Okay, now I know why they want to play it.’ Because I resonated with it completely. I think Black Widow has always been fierce, powerful, intelligent… I wouldn’t say manipulative, but she kind of knows when she has to make her moves so somehow it’s something that I just…”

She continued, “It was so fierce and it was like an instant connect. I hope through my voice, I can add my own touch to this wonderful character. Of course, being a part of it, with such amazing actors and voices also is going to be absolutely amazing. We’ve just started this journey and having my dear friend and gorgeous Masaba part of it is also a win-win situation for us.”

Masaba Gupta, who is also making debut with the audio series, told a leading daily, “I think [Lisa Cartwright] is just amazing because there is this quiet intelligence to her. She’s also someone who doesn’t take herself too seriously but she’s also extremely intuitive and smart. Everything that happens with her and Helen Black, that relationship is something that’s very exciting for me. But I won’t spill the beans. I’m very excited, to create a world just from your voice is special and a challenge. And of course, I’m a Kareena Kapoor Khan fan. I’m very happy it’s with her because I wouldn’t have asked for anyone better.”
