Kareena Kapoor on playing Black Widow: 'I’m absolutely delighted to be a part of it'

Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan have Marvel’s ‘Wastelanders’ as their next. They will be voice starring for the new podcast series on ‘Audible.’

The series that also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Sharad Kelkar, Prajakta Koli and Masaba Gupta was announced in Mumbai on Friday.
Kareena is playing popular Marvel superhero Black Widow played by Scarlett Johansson in the MCU films.

Kareena talked about her character and said it ‘resonated’ with her.

She said, ‘It is an amazing character. I’m very honoured to be a part of this huge series, the first Audible Hindi series of Marvel. I’m absolutely delighted to be a part of it. When I got the script, I knew why they wanted me to play her as I resonated with her completely. I think Black Widow is fierce, powerful, intelligent. I won’t say manipulative but she knows when she has to make her moves. So, somehow, it is something that is so fierce so I had an instant connect. I hope, through my voice, I can add my touch to this wonderful character which is truly iconic.’

Saif gives voice for character Star-Lord in the series. He also shared how excited he was to enter into the genre of just audio. He said, ‘It was only audio and it was absolutely phenomenal.’
