Following a positive test screening, Marvel’s Thunderbolts* will undergo reshoots next month, December 2024.
According to Daniel Richtman, his Patreon post reveals that Marvel Studios is reportedly very happy with Thunderbolts*, and they plan to add some important extras to the film during the reshoots, scheduled for December.
It is almost confirmed that every member of the Thunderbolts* will appear in Avengers: Doomsday, with filming set to begin in March 2025.
During the Disney APAC showcase in Singapore (Via Deadline), Marvel President Kevin Feige said that Thunderbolts* is “what Marvel is all about”:
“It’s taking characters from all different types of places and franchises and putting them together. That’s what the Avengers are, that’s what Guardians of the Galaxy is.”
As we reported — the test screenings report of the film — which has a “tone similar to Captain America: The Winter Soldier, with good action scenes that stand out.” The film begins with Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) on a mission — and she is reportedly the main character. There are scenes set in the Red Room. Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen) has one of the best action sequences in the film.
Directed by Jake Schreier and stars Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier, Pugh as Yelena Belova, Wyatt Russell as John Walker/U.S. Agent, Olga Kurylenko as Antonia Dreykov/Taskmaster, David Harbour as Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian, John-Kamen as Ava Starr/Ghost, Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, Ford as President Thaddeus Ross, Lewis Pullman as Sentry, and Geraldine Viswanathan as Erin. Laurence Fishburne and Rachel Weisz are confirmed to reprise their roles as scientist Bill Foster and spy Melina Vostakov.
Here’s the official synopsis for Thunderbolts*:
Marvel Studios and a crew of indie veterans who sold out present Thunderbolts*, an irreverent team-up featuring depressed assassin Yelena Belova (Pugh) alongside the MCU’s least anticipated band of misfits.
The film is produced by Feige, Brian Chapek, Matthew Jenkins, David J. Grant, and Scarlett Johansson.
Thunderbolts hits theaters on May 2, 2025, in IMAX, RealD 3D, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, Cinemark XD, and premium screens worldwide.
