‘Thunderbolts’ stars Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, Olga Kurylenko, Lewis Pullman, Geraldine Viswanathan, Chris Bauer, Wendell Pierce, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus in the lead roles.
In an earlier interview with Empire, the filmmaker talked about the plot of ‘Thunderbolts’. He said, “I’ve seen a lot of synopses out there that just say, as though it’s a fact, that it’s a team assembled by Valentina to go do bad things. I understand why that would be the assumption, but that is not the story.”
Talking about Yelena’s role in Thunderbolts, he added, “She’s front and center. Yelena is in a certain place at the beginning of the film, and how she finds her way out of that place, and who she finds herself out of that place with, is at the heart of the story. It’s exciting to think of movies like Ronin or Reservoir Dogs, where you have a group of people that has no reason to trust each other. Could they even learn to work together? What sort of conflicts would arise?”
While speaking to Entertainment Weekly about the new development in Thunderbolts, director Jake Schreier said, “You know as much as I know about that. I mean, I was there, but I didn’t direct that scene. That comes from the set of a movie that is officially beginning production on Monday.”
He added, “I was very happy to be there and lucky to be there. It was so fun to see your characters go off into this bigger context. We’ve been living in our own contained world, but it was really fun to see them there.”
‘Thunderbolts’ was later rebranded as ‘The New Avengers’, setting up the plot of upcoming Marvel movies.
