Thunderbolts* comes out on May 2nd, 2025, which means we have more than six months to go until we finally learn what that asterisk in the title is and what it means in the grander scheme of things. So far, we know that the big crossover is an important story of the Multiverse Saga, preceding the next Avengers movie by about a year.
We’re not exactly looking at the MCU’s new Avengers team, which should be forming under Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), the acting Captain America of Earth-616.
The Thunderbolts aren’t exactly heroes or Avengers themselves. Except for Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), who has redeemed himself since his Hydra days and became a recognized Avengers member, everyone else is hardly a superhero, as far as the world is concerned.
Instead of Earth’s mightiest heroes, we have a team of misfits that largely assemble themselves. Initially, they’ll do it to survive, as the first Thunderbolts* trailer shows. Then, they’ll have at least one big villain to fight as a team.
All of that will make the full title reveal more exciting when it does happen. And a well-known Marvel insider keeps dropping teasers about what the film’s title might mean.
This is where I stop to tell you that big spoilers might follow: Big spoilers might follow.
