In two weeks, one last shot at redemption.
After finding themselves ensnared in a death trap, an unconventional team of antiheroes must embark on a dangerous mission that will force them to confront the darkest corners of their pasts.
In Thunderbolts*, the 36th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, our anti-heroes must face off against one of the most powerful creatures in the Marvel Universe: the Sentry. A superpowered humanoid with the abilities of flight, superstrength and invulnerability, he is a Marvel Universe analog to Superman, but with a darker side. It’s called the Void, and it seeks to undo all the good the Sentry does, and it looks like the Void is what the Thunderbolts* are fighting.
Steven Yeun was originally cast as Robert Reynolds/Sentry, but after filming was delayed due to the SAG-AFTRA strikes (2023), Yeun dropped out due to scheduling conflicts and was later replaced with Lewis Pullman. He later expressed disappointment of not being able to do the film, and hopes to be cast in another Marvel movie.
Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts* is directed by Eric Pearson, from a screenplay by Eric Pearson and Joanna Calo, and stars Forence Pugh, Lewis Pullman, David Harbour, Sebastian Stan, Hannah John-Kamen, Olga Kuryulenko, and Wyatt Russel. It arrives only in theaters May 2.
