    We’re going to explain who the thunderbolts are, who’s on the team, who should be on the team, and what kind of threats they’ll face in the MCU.
    The movie will be directed by Jack Schreier-he did that robot and Frank movie. This follows Marvel’s pattern of hiring indie directors to direct their big budget movies. This is because a lot of Marvel’s pre-viz process maps out big action sequences ahead of time, but they still need someone to tell the humans how to make feelings on screen..
    The Thunderbolts is a group that is unlike anything else we’ve seen in the MCU up to this point. People keep saying they’re Marvel’s suicide squad, but that’s not exactly true. See, the Thunderbolts first began during this 90s story called Heroes reborn. Basically, all the heavies, the Avengers, Fantastic Four, were sucked into other dimensions, so everyone in the Marvel universe thought they were dead. A new team called the thunderbolts showed up and started picking up the slack for the missing avengers.
    The public gradually accepted this new super team-but it turned out that they were actually a team of villains in disguise, led by baron Zemo. I don;t think the movie is going to comply with that kind of twist, cause, we;ll, we already know the twist. But, there have been many other intierations of the team over the years. At one point, Norman Osborn became the director of shield and formed his own team to act as a kind of suici0de like team of villains to do the dirty work the heroes wouldn't touch.
    During this time, Osborn was basically put in charge of all the government’s superheroes, in an event called dark reign. Basically, after Civil war tony was put in charge of shield, then he failed to stop a skrull invasion, so the government put a former villain in control. Biven current events, that no longer seems unlikely.
    Dark reign also gave us the dark avengers. This was another team of villains and anti-heroes disguised as good guys, who were anointed as the Avengers.
    I think that we’re going to see an amalgam of these two teams in this movie. Events are very similar. The core of the Avengers is broken, with Tony and Natasha dead, Steve and Clint retired, Thor off finding himself and banner-I guess is just doing consulting work. We don;t have an official avengers team, or an official avengers headquarters.
    So with the Avengers gone, this is a perfect opportunity for Thunderbolt Ross to step in and flex his muscles. Ross first entered the MCU in the Incredible Hulk, where he was hunting Bruce Banner because he wanted to create an army of hulks from his blood. [that man is govt property] You’ll remember that in that movie he used a lesser version of the serum to give Emil Blonsky powers [clip], him getting kicked] [not a great plan].
    Ross keeps popping up in the CU attempting to control other heroes. He spearheaded the sokovia accords, haunted Natasha, and made the Avengers report to him in Infinity war. This is a guy who has always wanted his own team of avengers. And now he finally has his chance.
    Now I should mention that the actor who plays Ross, William Hurt, recently passed away. Personally, I’m in favor of recasting almost any role in these movies, because the characters should live forever. Maybe Sam Elliot would reprise the role, or Brian Cox from succession.
    Or. the team could just be named the thunderbolts in his honor, if the character has died. We know he has a bad ticker
    It also seems very likely that Ross’s chief agent is the former spy Valentina allegra de fontaine [val, for short]. We’re seen her pop up in falcon and the winter soldier, black widow, and offscreen in hawker. All we know about her is that she seems to have some security clearance and she hires out Yelean for assassin work. She’s also not above meaning the truth, as she lies to Yelena about her target.

    1. Thank you for giving the first good explanation of The Thunderbolts I've seen on CZcams.
    2. I really hope we get more of the original Thunderbolts in the MCU version. At the very least, I hope they introduce Moonstone in The Marvels and get her on the team, because she's always been the most interesting member to me, because you really never know which way she's going to go.
    3. I would love it if Ross put together The Thunderbolts (Zemo, and hopefully mostly characters from the original comics series) and Contessa put together The Dark Avengers (US Agent, Yelena, Abomination, Justin Hammer) and we had the two teams going up against each other.
    4. My hope for how they handle Ross, is that he took a new Super Soldier serum, that rejuvenated him (maybe recast him with Jon Hamm) leading to him becoming Red Hulk down the road.

      seeing Zemo as Citizen V would be great but maybe not exactly as in comics since that persona was very American-coded (even though original Citizen V was British) and i don't think Zemo would agree to parade around practically dressed like an American flag given his dislike for the USA and its heroes. But the original Citizen V costume doesn't have any specific symbols associated with America or Great Britain, it's just red, white and blue which sure are colors of previously mentioned countries but are also colors of Sokovia and honestly I think they can go with that.

    I think Ross is going to already be Red Hulk in this which would make a recast even easier. In Black Widow, Natasha mentions that he is sick, which is really eerie considering Hurt's passing. I think it signals that they've been hinting at Ross's transformation, he became Red Hulk in order to not die.

    Walker isn't an idiot, he's smarter than people are willing to give him credit for, he’s certainly proven that in the comics and even in the MCU, if they'd all just worked together like he said they should do from the very beginning instead of busy with the internal clashes between each other over the shield, they'd have gotten Karli taken care of a lot earlier and with a lot less casaulties. It's not Walker who's an idiot but rather the story refuses to acknowledge his points because Sam and Bucky have to be the heroes of the story and be in the right, even if their "smart plan" was to break a murderous terrorist out of jail and get more people killed along the way.

Later, Gorr somehow escapes gets new powers (courtesy of Valentina), and joins the thunderbolts. The rest are on earth and reachable.

    I would love to see Hayward get a chance to redeem himself. He definitely fits the mold of anti-hero. I'm not sure what his exact role would be, though. He did lead the efforts to build White Vision, so maybe he can be a tech guy.

      @Spidervenom23 Před 2 lety

      Hayward is a 100 percent a villain in the MCU, If you calling him a "Anti-Hero", you mind as well call people like Dreykov, Pierce, and Ross Anti-heroes as well. He is no different then them and I can't stressed this enough he Stole Vis from either the Avengers or Wakanda.

    3:08 I totally agree. Even for Chadwick Bozeman. I mean he's a great actor and all but I'm sure he'd love to have other black actors to have the same opportunity as he is to play T'Challa. He's a comic book character, he doesn't need to die off screen just because the actor died. Honestly part of me just want more T'Challa :(

    I would like to se Trish Walker aka Hellcat from Jessica Jones
    She is technically a villain now, and is in the Raft if I remember correctly but maybe she could be represented by She-Hulk also or be part of this team, either way I would like to see her return

    Interesting take on the way the Thunderbolts should be portrayed. Personally I was thinking more in the vein of The Boys with most of the team. Propagandized to the public as heroes while being lecherous villains in private. Maybe that's where the split can come in team members like Yalena and Patriot really want to do good albeit with more viscious/brutal tactics than normal heroes. While Blomsky and Zemo some of the others are just there for the power/payday they're provided by being sponsored by the American Government, and are pulling villainous moves behind the scenes. Then it comes down to the good team members having to defeat the bad team members.

    Agree with Skurg. That would be hilarious. We should also have someone who doesn’t want to be on the team to become the villian or revealed to be a Skrull or secret agent for it.

  • @thorinwoods2642
    @thorinwoods2642 Před 2 lety

    My Thunderbolts team is: Zemo, John Walker, Yelena Belova, Emil Blonsky, and Ava Starr. Honorable mentions: Antonia Dreykov, Eric O’Grady, Parker Robbins, Bullseye, or Ezekiel Stane or Justin Hammer. Though Justin Hammer as Detroit Steel.

  • @ezrafarrant298

    I did not even recognize Karl Urban is Skurge and the Boys. That sounds awesome and he’s a great actor
    I don’t care for Zemo and US Agent

    My personal favorite Thunderbolt run is absolutely Red Hulk, Deadpool, Punisher, Ghostrider, Elektra, Red Leader, Mercy, and Agent Venom. They have the rights to most of these characters now, and with Eddie leaving leaving piece of the Venom symbiote behind, this can still almost be a possibility lol. Would love to see it!

  • @cameronfox9459
    @cameronfox9459 Před 2 lety +1

    After the D23Expo Thunderbolts announcement - what if Marvel is going to Suicide Squad the Thunderbolts? As you said, the only one with powers is Ghost, otherwise you have spies and super soldiers. If this team went up against most MCU Villains (Ultron, Mysterio, Abomination, Kaecilius, Xu Wenwu . . . even Aldrich Killian) they would be torn to shreds. Most of the line-up is expendable. I could see everyone dying in that line-up short of Yelena with a heart felt emotional death moment for Red Guardian. That'd be an amazing movie. Who is that villain?!? : )

  • @kingkang7508
    @kingkang7508 Před 2 lety

    It would be a cool take if they turned Betty Ross into the Red Hulk. I mean there is also an understandable explanation for her to go villian and that's being that she watched her father go crazy chasing after super heroes it eventually got the best of him and being the Red Hulk is her revenge.

  • @fakereality2027
    @fakereality2027 Před 2 lety +1

    You know what? I think there's a character who no one thinks about, and she, yes SHE, will play a major role in forming process of the Thunderbolts and specifically late phase 4 and early phase 5, and that's Sharon Carter. I think Sharon has already been in touch with Val and probably she's the one who delivers weapons and techs to the Thunderbolts. And don't forget Val has a connection with Wilson Fisk and eventually Sharon will be in touch with Kingpin as a business partner. I think Sharon is directly tied to the Thunderbolts in some way, shape or form.

    What if Glenn Talbot (Played by Josh Lucas in Hulk, Adrian Pasdar in AoS) Co-Founded the THUNDERBOLTS in honor of his mentor Gen./Secretary Thaddeus E. "Thunderbolt" Ross, who died from his heart condition in Infinity War. He is the right hand man of Ross in the comics and rival to bruce over Betty Ross (Plot twist is he's the mcu Red Hulk)

  • @blackdoomduck

    With them making a thunderbolts and also seemingly collecting young avengers. I think it will be more dark avengers than thunderbolts, leading to a dark avengers Vs young avengers.

    Using Sam Rockwell’s Justin Hammer again is a MUST & this style of the Thunderbolts would be great place for that. Hear me out on this one though, bring Karl Urban back but as Beetle/Mach-I. He leaves the helmet on basically the whole time (ala his performance in Dredd) & there could even be some fun had between him & Rockwell’s Hammer since Mach-I gets on the team in the comics by stealing Hammer tech.

  •  Před 2 lety

    If Agent of Shield is canon or from another universe they should give the leadership to Ross right hand, General Glenn Talbot who took his place as the new Secretary of Defence. I think they need to introduce Taskmaster as a new character maybe Mason from Black Widow movie or Bucky who can’t escape his past.

  • @RApollos107
    @RApollos107 Před 2 lety

    I mean on the very base level, The Thunderbolts are the Marvel version of the Suicide Squad, Villains playing Hero. But I really want to see the cast of The Thunderbolts be the original team, Citizen V, Atlas, MACH, Songbird, Meteorite, and Techno. You can have them be brought together by a Thunderbolt Ross-like figure head, but if you put together a team for Thunderbolts that are all established MCU characters, like Winter Soldier and Abomination, you run the risk of the movie being slighted as literal the Marvel Suicide Squad and no one will look beyond that notion that they are the Suicide Squad of Marvel.
