Why David Harbor gave Black Widow spoilers to those two folks

Marvel Studios is known to be strict when it comes to spoilers. When then David Harbor got the role of Alexei Shostakov (aka Red Guardian) in Black Widow, he was expected to keep details about the film under wraps.

However, the actor has confided in two very specific people about his role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Who exactly were these lucky people? None other than Stranger Things co-creators Frosted and Ross Duffer.

“The circle of secrets includes other people keeping secrets,” he told E! News and notes that everyone in their life is begging for Stranger Things spoilers too. “I felt like I could share Marvel secrets with them because they know how to keep a secret and desperately keep the power of it.”

David later remarked, “But then there are people who really want to know and I just wouldn’t tell them anything.”

Before Disney, which owns Marvel Studios, reads this and gets upset about David, we should note that he had his very special reasons for giving the Duffers some tidbits.
