Marvel Releases Final 'Thunderbolts' Trailer Ahead of May 2025 Release

Marvel Studios has released the final trailer for Thunderbolts*, showcasing a team of antiheroes—Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Taskmaster, and John Walker—who must overcome their troubled pasts and unite to confront the powerful Sentry and his dark alter ego, The Void. The trailer features emotional callbacks to previous MCU films, particularly Black Widow, and uses Queen and David Bowie's 'Under Pressure' to underscore the team's struggles. Early reactions to the film are positive, with anticipation building as fan screenings are scheduled in major U.S. cities ahead of its official release. The movie is expected to perform well at the box office, despite its relatively modest budget and ensemble cast. Additionally, Son Lux was announced as the film's composer, contributing to its unique tone. Speculation continues about the team's future in the MCU, especially with most cast members confirmed to appear in Avengers: Doomsday.
