'Avengers 2' Black Widow's New Bike Holds A Harley Davidson Secret, Scarlett Johansson Debut's New Model
Black Widow will get an impressive new ride for The Avengers: Age Of Ultron.
Joss Whedon took the Avengers 2 production to Korea in early April, and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) debut her new motorcycle on the streets of Seoul (see video below). While the black bike certainly turned heads as Johansson's stunt double swerved through the action sequence, it turns out there is much more to the vehicle than meets the eye.
Black Widow's ride is actually Harley Davidson's Project LiveWire - the iconic brand's first electric motorcycle, according to Superhero Hype.
"This has never been about an electric car," said Harley Davidson's Chief Marketing Officer Mark-Hans Richer of the company's newest venture, according to Cinema Blend. "For us, it's been more about an electric guitar: expressive, emotional, fun."
Fan's of Earth's Mightiest Heroes shouldn't go sprinting to their nearest dealer quite yet, however. The new bike will make its environmentally friendly premiere in the 2015 Marvel film but it will still be sometime before the vehicle hits the market.
Those who are unwilling to relinquish their old-school bike preferences will also have something to look forward to when Age of Ultron comes to the big screen. Considering Black Widow's bike will probably only be featured in the Seoul chase, a different classic model - possibly belonging to Steve Rogers - was recently spotted at an Avengers shoot in England (see photos here).
