Marvel has finally unveiled the official trailer for the highly-anticipated movie “Thunderbolts*,” opening in theaters on May 2, 2025.
The movie serves as the final installment of the MCU's Phase Five, following the July 2024 release of "Deadpool & Wolverine" and the February 2025 release of "Captain America: Brave New World".
Not much is known about the plot of the movie, but in the comics, the Thunderbolts are made up of villains, anti-heroes and reformed baddies — some of whom have already appeared within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
It is set to bring together the worlds of “Ant-Man and the Wasp”, “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”, “Black Widow”, and the upcoming “Captain America” installment “New World Order”.
“Paper Towns” director Jake Schreier is helming the project, with “Beef” creator Lee Sung Jin penning the script from a first draft by “Black Widow” writer Eric Pearson.
