The MCU has received a huge shot in the arm recently thanks to the monumental success of Deadpool & Wolverine – something which bodes well for the franchise's many upcoming movies after a couple of consecutive disappointments. As ever, there are loads of new Marvel movies currently in the works – from Fantastic Four to Captain America: Brave New World – but arguably one of the most intriguing of the bunch is Thunderbolts, a team-up film for assorted anti-heroes including Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) and Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh). And if the film wasn't already an interesting prospect for fans, curiosity was further piqued earlier in 2024 when an asterisk was added to the title, with Marvel chief Keven Feige explaining that this cryptic addition wouldn't be explained further "until after the movie comes out" next May.
More recently, at San Diego Comic Con, the first brief trailer was played for attendees – and although it's not yet available online for fans to see, we do know that it included glimpses of action scenes and the phrase "Careful who you assemble". Meanwhile, it's also been revealed that the cast of the film will also be featuring in the next two Avengers films – subtitled Doomsday and Secret Wars respectively – so it looks like these characters are going to be major players in the MCU going forwards. So, which actors are set to star in the movie and what can fans expect? Read on for everything you need to know about Thunderbolts.
