The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is set to release its latest film, "Thunderbolts," on May 2, 2025. Directed by Jake Schreier, this movie marks the 36th installment in the MCU and is generating buzz for being a standout among recent releases.
In "Thunderbolts," Florence Pugh reprises her role as Yelena Belova, the adopted sister of Black Widow. Yelena leads a team of antiheroes, including Bucky Barnes, played by Sebastian Stan, and John Walker, portrayed by Wyatt Russell. The group, which also features Taskmaster and Red Guardian, embarks on a mission that could change their tarnished reputations.
The film also stars Lewis Pullman, Geraldine Viswanathan, Hannah John-Kamen, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. It serves as the concluding film of the MCU’s Phase Five, paving the way for the upcoming "Avengers: Doomsday."
Currently, "Thunderbolts" is only available in theaters. If you’re eager to see it, you can find showtimes near you through Fandango. Many fans are curious about when it will be available for streaming. While it’s not yet on Disney+, it is expected to follow a similar release pattern as other Marvel films.
