The highly anticipated Thunderbolts IMAX trailer has officially dropped, leaving fans eager for its upcoming release. Premiering alongside the IMAX screening of Captain America: Brave New World, the trailer gives a glimpse of Bucky Barnes, portrayed by Sebastian Stan, assembling the Thunderbolts team for a mission that looks set to take on one of the most powerful threats in the Marvel universe.
The trailer hints that the team’s primary challenge is The Sentry, or perhaps his dark counterpart, The Void, who is described as an Avengers-level threat. However, with the Avengers absent, it’s up to Barnes and the Thunderbolts to save the day. While the trailer showcases plenty of action, one major question remains—how can this team possibly face off against a force like The Sentry? Fans are eager to find out as the film’s release approaches.
Despite some concerns, including how the Thunderbolts will match up against such a formidable enemy, the trailer’s upbeat tone suggests that the film is shaping up to be a more cohesive experience than Captain America: Brave New World. Furthermore, the Thunderbolts cast is drawing attention with its impressive lineup, which includes fan-favorites like Florence Pugh, David Harbour, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, alongside newcomers like Lewis Pullman and Geraldine Viswanathan.
Thunderbolts is slated for release on May 2, 2025, and will be directed by Jake Schreier. The full cast features Pugh reprising her role as the assassin Yelena Belova, alongside Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes, Harbour as Red Guardian, Wyatt Russell as John Walker, and Olga Kurylenko as Taskmaster. The film promises plenty of action and intrigue, particularly as it showcases the unlikely team-up of these characters to face down the impossible.
In addition to the trailer, the film’s promotional materials include a fun nod to the comics with the Thunderbolts Wheaties box, which appears as the movie’s standee. Fans are hoping for a real-world release of the cereal when the film hits theaters.
As the release date nears, fans will no doubt be watching closely to see how this dynamic team fares against one of Marvel’s most powerful foes.
