Kareena Kapoor And Masaba Gupta To Be Part Of Marvel’s Audible Podcast Wastelanders: Black Widow

Kareena Kapoor and Masaba Gupta's most recent collaboration is for the upcoming Hindi Audible original podcast named Marvel's Wastelanders: Black Widow. Kareena takes on the role of the renowned superhero. Her character goes by the name Helen Black and has a secret goal that she wants to keep hidden for the time being. Masaba is Lisa Cartwright. She is a Junior Residential Security Analyst for a private security firm contracted by S.H.I.E.L.D. She is tasked with spying on the residents. As she examines Helen, she discovers that she is not who she claims to be.

Wastelanders: Black Widow is set 30 years in the future when the superheroes have been defeated by the supervillains. Most people accept the gloomy reality. But a few surviving superheroes, notably Black Widow, are striving to make a difference in whichever way they can. Kareena shared that it was an honor to be a part of the series. She said, "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, and 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... 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 are 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 is also making her audio debut with the series. She stated, "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."
