She most likely is playing one of the at least six widows featured in the film and is likely on this poster. So, her role has to be sizable for Marvel Studios to place her on the first teaser poster.

Simona is mostly unknown to American audiences, but she did work with Star Wars actor John Boyega in the 2012 TV film My Murder.

Other actresses that have seemingly outed themselves on social media as other widows including Shaina West, Yolanda Lynes, and Jade Ma. West and Lynes seemingly have extensive martial arts training.

Scarlett Johansson leads a cast that also includes Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Rachel Weisz, O-T Fagbenle, and an unconfirmed Ray Winstone.

During San Diego Comic-Con, Rachael revealed her character, Melina, is an accomplished Widow herself and that movie would feature multiple widows beyond Yelena Belova and Natasha.

WEISZ:“Well, I can tell you Melina has been cycled through the Black Widow/Red Room Program five times, by the time the film starts. She started being cycled through when she was a child.”

“So, she’s a highly accomplished spy and assassin. But I can’t tell you her relationship to anyone else.”

“There are quite a number… I’m a Black Widow. Scarlet and Florence, there are also quite a lot of other characters that you meet who are also Black Widows.”

The film’s setting will take place after the events of Captain America: Civil War and before Avengers: Infinity War.

Black Widow is officially set to be released on May 1st, 2020.
