First Thunderbolts Trailer Brings Together Marvel’s Worst Superheroes

Over Comic-Con weekend, you might have seen some of the leaked Thunderbolts footage after the Marvel Studios panel. If not, good news, as Marvel has officially dropped the trailer with some of the MCU’s former bad guys coming together to take on even worse guys.

The trailer starts with Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova reuniting with her surrogate father, Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian (David Harbour). Yelena confesses that she feels an emptiness and that “there is something wrong with me.” Check out the trailer below.

There’s also John Walker/US Agent (Wyatt Russell) feeling like he’s let his country down with that whole murdering someone with Captain America’s shield thing. There’s also Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) spying on the Countess Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus). Val is seemingly the one pulling the strings and bringing the team together, which we saw the foundation of in Disney+’s The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

Ant-Man and the Wasp’s Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen) also joins the team, but the trailer also introduces another major player to the MCU: the Sentry. Originally Steven Yeun was scheduled to play the powerhouse, but Lewis Pullman (Top Gun: Maverick) is shown in the trailer as only “Bob.”

Marvel’s Thunderbolts arrives in theaters on May 2, 2025.
