A number of stars previously known as “Thunderbolts” are expected to appear in “Avengers: Doomsday”. One of them hinted at their upcoming appearance within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

The much-awaited movie titled “Thunderbolts” from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is set to hit theaters later this week. Prior to its premiere, certain cast members from this film have been confirmed to appear in the upcoming Avengers film. One of these actors has shared that they initially didn’t anticipate their involvement in the MCU would extend beyond a single project, as they once had to be ready for the eventuality that it might only happen once.

Doomsday,” here’s what Pullman shared with GamesRadar.

I have no idea. I would love to spoil it.

Besides Anthony Mackie (Pullman), other Thunderbolts cast members set to appear in Doomsday include Florence Pugh (Yelena), Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes), David Harbour (Red Guardian), Hannah John-Kamen (Ghost), and Wyatt Russell (John Walker). Although they’ve been working together for months on their upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe project, these stars have been tight-lipped about Doomsday. In fact, they avoid discussing the next Avengers film altogether. According to Harbour, he was informed of his role in the movie, but he wasn’t certain about the others’ involvement. He didn’t have a story or script initially, so he was unaware of the project’s details.

Marvel Studios Has A Long History Of Keeping Plot Details Secret From Its Major Actors

It’s nothing unusual for Marvel to keep tight-lipped about their upcoming movie details. Actors usually steer clear of commenting on their casting until it’s officially confirmed by Marvel Studios. Paul Rudd, for instance, was coy when asked if Ant-Man would appear in “Doomsday.” Instead of a straightforward “yes” or “no,” he subtly hinted that the Russo brothers could reach out to him if needed, suggesting he might be involved. During the same interview, his co-star Jenna Ortega humorously remarked that Marvel actors are skilled at handling such evasive questions. When the cast list for “Doomsday” was finally revealed by Marvel Studios, Rudd’s name was on it. However, some fans were disappointed as other popular stars like Tom Holland, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Chris Pratt were not included in the announcement. Kevin Feige, President of Marvel Studios, explained that they had revealed many cast members but not all, suggesting that some actors are part of the film without being mentioned in the initial announcement.

It’s thrilling to see the Thunderbolts in “Avengers: Doomsday” as they bring an extra dose of excitement with their reformed villains or anti-heroes, adding both fun and chaos to the movie. Early reviews hint that it’s going to be a fantastic film, even surpassing “Captain America: Brave New World.” So, the return of these misfits in “Doomsday” is highly anticipated. The casting of Pullman as Sentry in Doomsday is excellent due to his powerful abilities and complex character, with both heroic and villainous sides. If Void is properly introduced, fans can expect a grittier and more intense storyline in the future. However, Void’s presence also brings a tragic element since Sentry is both a hero and a villain. In short, Pullman’s character in the MCU is intricate, and fans are eager to see more of him on screen.

Thunderbolts* will hit theaters on May 2, 2025.
