With two weeks until release, Marvel Studios has unveiled the final trailer for the highly anticipated movie “Thunderbolts*”, which is set to Queen’s iconic song, “Under Pressure.”
The footage features a callback to "Black Widow" (2021), the first film to feature Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, who will reprise her role in the upcoming movie.
It also provides a new look at Geraldine Viswanathan’s character, who is on the phone with Bucky (Sebastian Stan). But, more than anything, the new clip takes this lovable band of misfits and anti-heroes and turns them into a group of heroes that will work together and try to defeat Sentry (Lewis Pullman).
One of the biggest knocks against the MCU in the Multiverse Saga has been the lack of connectivity and stories with character crossovers. Fans were given a small taste of this with "The Marvels", which united characters from "Captain Marvel" and "Ms. Marvel", but "Thunderbolts*" will bring together a much wider swath of heroes and anti-heroes alike.
Based on Kurt Busiek’s comic series of the same name, “Thunderbolts*” is helmed by “Paper Towns” director Jake Schreier from a screenplay written by Eric Pearson (“Black Widow,” “Thor: Ragnarok,” “Transformers One,” “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”), “Beef” creator Lee Sung Jin and co-showrunner of “The Bear” Joanna Calo.
The movie, out May 2, stars Wyatt Russell will also star in "Thunderbolts*", reprising his role as John Walker, the “American Hero” who goes from Captain America to the U.S. Agent in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
"Thunderbolts*" will also bring back other Black Widow characters, Red Guardian (David Harbour), and Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko), while even returning Ant-Man and the Wasp veteran Hannah John-Kamen as Ava Starr/Ghost. “Top Gun: Maverick” star Lewis Pullman plays a mysterious new character named Bob.
It is produced by Marvel chief Kevin Feige. Louis D’Esposito, Brian Chapek, Jason Tamez, and Scarlett Johansson serve as executive producers.
Following "Thunderbolts*", Marvel will release its biggest project since "Spider-Man: No Way Home". "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" is coming to theaters on July 11, and it will be the first live-action MCU project set in another dimension.
It also takes place in the 60s, which was first teased by Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) in "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" with his “Didn't you guys chart in the 60s?” joke to John Krasinski’s Reed Richards.
Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby will lead "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" as Reed Richards and Sue Storm, with Joseph Quinn playing Johnny Storm and Ebon Moss-Bachrach playing Ben Grimm.
"Thunderbolts*" hits cinemas on May 2.
