Thunderbolts cast announced at Disney’s D23 Expo
During the Hall D23 Presentation at Disney’s D23 Expo, Marvel Studios revealed that Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, Olga Kurylenko and David Harbour will appear in the Thunderbolts movie. The movie will also star Ant-Man and The Wasp’s Hannah John-Kamen.
The build up to the Thunderbolts movie has been anticipated for some time, as multiple hints and teases were dropped across the MCU. Notably, the arrival of John Walker’s U.S Agent in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier put the wheels in motion.
Recruited by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, the sinister puppet-master was also seen in the post credits of Black Widow, speaking with none other than Pugh’s Yelena Belova. Of course, this discussion would lead to the events of Hawkeye, with Belova hot on the trail of Clint Barton himself.
Daniel Bruhl’s Helmut Zemo, who also returned in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, is a key contender to join this ragtag villain team too.
However, we’ll have to wait and see whether the formidable foe returns.
