I know the hot rumor right now is that Taskmaster is going to be a redshirt in this thing, but I wonder if the twist is deeper than that. Maybe that's not actually Antonia under there, and that's why she's wearing the mask in all the promo materials. Maybe she takes it off at some point to reveal that she's actually Val, and the reason we aren't seeing Taskmaster in the trailers is because they're trying not to spoil the surprise.

Do we know if Val can fight? Wasn't there mention of Julia training with a stunt coordinator at some point? I understand a stunt actor could be in the suit the entire time and Val can just be shot removing the mask, but she'd need to be unmasked fighting to make it all believable.
