Earth-Shaking Showdown: Marvel's Superman Clashes with the Thunderbolts in Epic Fan Trailer for MCU's Phase 5 Team-Up

Summary

A fan-made trailer for Thunderbolts imagines the team taking on the Marvel Comics character Sentry, showcasing a potential plot for the film.

The currently known information about Thunderbolts includes the director, screenwriters, and a few cast members like Yelena Belova, Taskmaster, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, U.S. Agent, and Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.

The unknown aspects regarding Thunderbolts involve the possibility of additional members joining the team and the identity of the primary antagonist. Once the Hollywood strikes are resolved, more information regarding the film may come to light.

Sentry, a character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, takes on the role of a villain in a fan-made trailer for the Thunderbolts. While it will be a few years before audiences see the Avengers on the big screen again, a new team is coming together in Phase 5. After being hinted at in the Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline, the Thunderbolts are being developed as Marvel Studios' version of DC's Suicide Squad.

The filming of the Thunderbolts movie was initially planned for this summer, but it is currently on hold due to the strikes by the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA. Despite this, fans are still eagerly speculating about what the Phase 5 movies might entail.

What We Actually Know About Thunderbolts So Far

Screen Culture recently released a captivating fan-made trailer for Thunderbolts, showcasing their unique vision for the film's plot. In this intriguing concept, the Thunderbolts assemble to confront Sentry, a remarkable embodiment of Marvel Comics' own Superman variant.

Since its initial announcement at D23 2022, Thunderbolts has remained shrouded in secrecy, with only a few confirmed details known at this point. Paper Towns' Jake Schreier will take the helm as director for Thunderbolts, working from a screenplay written by Eric Pearson and Lee Sung. The fate of the Thunderbolts script, and whether any changes will be made before production begins, remains uncertain.

The Thunderbolts cast will consist of familiar faces from the MCU, such as Yelena Belova taking on the mantle of the new Black Widow, Taskmaster, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, U.S. Agent, and Valentina Allegra de Fontaine. Only two new cast members have been officially announced so far, with Ayo Edebiri from The Bears and Steven Yeun from The Walking Dead joining in undisclosed roles. While speculation suggests Yeun may play Sentry based on a fan-made trailer, there has been no confirmation or denial.

Apart from the unknown threat they will face, the big question surrounding Thunderbolts is whether more members will be added, and if so, will they be existing MCU characters. While it's possible the movie will stick to this lineup to avoid overcrowding, the opportunity to introduce additional Marvel characters through the team setup seems too tempting to ignore. Hopefully, as filming begins, more details about Thunderbolts will emerge once the Hollywood strikes conclude.
