You may have to take their word for it, but Harley-Davidson has revealed a new image from AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON that they say is Black Widow riding her brand new electric Harley Livewire. As you can see, Cap's shield is obscuring the rider but judging by the wisp of red hair above the shield and black leather pants, I will believe them.
Harley's new electric motorcycle has been rumored to be featured in AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON for a while now and this is our official confirmation. Harley also showcased another bike in CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, the Street 750, but promises that this bike will play a key part in an epic chase scene that also features Captain America.
Whether we will get to see this scene in action during Comic Con will be a mystery until the big presentation in Hall H tomorrow, but you can be sure that as soon as we get news, we will let you know. Read the full press release from Harley-Davidson below. AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON will open May 1, 2015.
Today at the San Diego Comic-Con, Harley-Davidson® and Marvel Studios will introduce Project LiveWire™ – Harley-Davidson's first electric motorcycle – to fans gathered at the annual international convention. Project LiveWire, which is featured in Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron, will be the ride of choice for Natasha Romanoff (a.k.a. Black Widow) played by Scarlett Johansson, in an epic scene with Captain America in the film.
The addition of Project LiveWire to Avengers: Age of Ultron confirms months of speculation that Harley-Davidson and Marvel are, indeed, teaming up again. Harley-Davidson motorcycles – including the Harley-Davidson Street 750™ featured in Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier earlier this year – have appeared in a number of Marvel movies and television shows over the last several years.
"Our partnership with Marvel continues to provide thrilling platforms to showcase our latest innovations to existing and new fans of the brand," said Dino Bernacchi, Director of U.S. Marketing at Harley-Davidson Motor Company. "Not one, but two bikes will be featured in Avengers: Age of Ultron – Project LiveWire and the all-new Street 750, which is now available at Harley-Davidson dealerships."
