Sneak Peek new images of actress Scarlett Johansson as Marvel Comics' deadly female Russian spy 'Black Widow' aka 'Natasha Romanoff', on the California set of Marvel Studios' currently filming 3D feature "Captain America: The Winter Soldier".
In the new film, actor Sebastian Stan returns as 'James "Bucky" Barnes' who becomes a brainwashed Russian assassin known as the 'Winter Soldier'.
According to the original Marvel Comics storyline, in 1945 Captain America and Bucky tried to stop the villain 'Baron Zemo' from destroying an experimental drone plane, after Zemo launches the plane with an attached explosive device. Bucky unsuccessfully tries to defuse the bomb, and it explodes in mid-air before reaching its intended target.
After the plane explodes, 'General Vasily Karpov' and the crew of a Russian patrol submarine find Bucky's cold-preserved body, minus one arm.
Scientists attach a bionic arm, upgrading it as technology improves.
Programmed to be a Soviet assassin for 'Department X', under the code name the 'Winter Soldier', he is sent on covert missions, involving political assassinations, becoming increasingly ruthless, but finds time to have a brief relationship with 'The Black Widow'.
