Marvel’s Thunderbolts has continued to add to its impressive cast list with The Walking Dead and Nope star Steven Yeun joining the movie in a role that will seemingly go beyond just a one-shot appearance. Deadline reports that while Yeun’s role is currently being kept under wraps, it will be “significant” in Thunderbolts.
Thunderbolts was announced last year and brings together a group that certainly don’t stand out as the greatest superhero team ever compiled. The Thunderbolts collective will be put together under the eye of Valentina Allegra de Fontaine and Thaddeus Ross, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Harrison Ford respectively, and brings together a number of Phase 4 characters along with some long-standing MCU members. The roster includes Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, Sebastian Stan as Winter Soldier, David Harbour as Red Guardian, Wyatt Russell as US Agent, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost and Olga Kurylenko as Taskmaster.
Yeun is the latest star to reportedly join the movie, which will also see Ayo Edebiri starring in another role that has yet to be revealed. With a hint that Yeun could be appearing in other Marvel projects beyond Thunderbolts, it seems unlikely that his role would be of the movie’s villain, but until anything official is announced, anything is possible.

Thunderbolts Will Bring A Classic Marvel Mix of Comedy and Drama

Thunderbolts is set to film later this year and is currently slated to hit theaters next summer. With a number of Marvel movies continuing to adjust their dates depending on how long is needed in post-production, whether that date holds is yet to be seen, but David Harbour is looking forward to reprising his role as Red Guardian. Discussing the movie previously the Black Widow star said of the ensemble:
“I think they’re all difficult people who all have many weaknesses. As you may know, as I certainly do, when you put a bunch of people with various certain weaknesses together, there’s often drama and comedy. I was told I would get a new suit. And I don’t want to say the ‘F’ word, but I am really psyched about that. You watch Captain America and you see him in all of these different movies, and you see him the white star and the black star [on his costume.] I just want a full closet’s worth of suits, and I’m well on my way.”
Among the many Marvel Cinematic Universe movies scheduled to be released in the next three years, Thunderbolts is interesting for not being about one of the MCU’s central heroes and instead focusing on a group that could easily be described as anti-Avengers. What exactly their purpose in the grander Marvel story is something that is not yet known, but with so many flawed characters in one place at the same time has the potential to be a very interesting ride indeed.
Thunderbolts will be directed by Jake Schreier and written by Eric Pearson and will make its debut on July 26, 2024 unless it suffers any unexpected delays in the meantime.
