Caution: This discussion includes significant spoilers for the film Thunderbolts. With the release of Thunderbolts, it’s natural to wonder if Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) will produce a sequel, Thunderbolts 2, and which cast members might reprise their roles. Given the positive response from MCU fans to Thunderbolts, it seems likely that many are eagerly anticipating a follow-up. The distinct tone of Thunderbolts sets it apart among other MCU films, and favorable reviews suggest that Marvel Studios should consider developing more team-up stories in this vein.
At least one thunderous outing* demonstrated that the main cast is captivating enough for a sequel. Now, they stand as the leading illustration of an underdog tale within the MCU, with characters whose narratives are ripe for expansion since they have proven to be among the most empathetic figures in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It remains to be seen if Marvel Studios will leverage this excitement with another solo film featuring this team.
Thunderbolts* 2 Has Not Been Confirmed
Thunderbolts* Needs Time To Settle
Currently, there’s no official confirmation about Thunderbolts 2. Also, none of the key personnel involved in the movie have disclosed plans for a sequel yet. Typically, this is how it goes with most Marvel Cinematic Universe films post-release; sequels are usually announced later when the initial excitement dies down. However, Avengers movies in MCU Phases 3 and 6 are anticipated to be released together as the climactic finale of those periods.
The decision for a follow-up depends on how well the movie “Thunderbolts” performs financially, given that franchises featuring Spider-Man and the Avengers have been highly profitable for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s plausible that their sequels were announced swiftly due to their success. Whether “Thunderbolts” can match the earnings of these popular franchises is uncertain, considering the characters in “Thunderbolts” aren’t as widely recognized as Spider-Man. However, if the public response to “Thunderbolts” remains favorable, it could potentially spawn a new franchise much like Guardians of the Galaxy did, despite being an obscure team when they first appeared in the MCU.
Thunderbolts* 2 Cast: Who Could Return
Only One Of The Main Cast Won’t Be Returning
If the Thunderbolts (or the New Avengers) appear in a future film, it’s reasonable to expect that many of the same characters will be part of the team. By the conclusion of *Thunderbolts*, only one character, Antonia Dreykov’s Taskmaster, suffered an untimely demise. The rest of the squad not only survived but seems to have grown emotionally since they began their dangerous adventure together. Therefore, it’s likely that the main cast for *Thunderbolts 2* will be made up of those who survived.
- Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova
- Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes
- Lewis Pullman as Bob Reynolds
- Wyatt Russell as John Walker
- David Harbour as Alexei Shostakov
- Hannah John-Kamen as Ava Starr
- Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine
It’s quite likely that Valentina, previously a secondary antagonist in the Thunderbolts, will make a comeback, given a surprising twist at the end of the movie where Yelena declared they now “own” her. Given Louis-Dreyfus’ and her character’s popularity, it seems reasonable to expect that she might reprise her role as the team’s dominant leader if the team survives their next appearance.
The Thunderbolts* Cast Will Return In Avengers: Doomsday
They Were Confirmed To Be Returning In Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday Live Stream
It was announced during a live stream by Marvel Studios in March that, with exceptions of Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Olga Kurylenko, the principal cast members of the Thunderbolts team are expected to return for Avengers: Doomsday. Moreover, the post-credits scene from Thunderbolts hints at setting up the movie, as it appears that the Fantastic Four’s spaceship arrived in Earth-616, which is the main universe within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, following the events of The Fantastic Four: First Steps. This strongly suggests that the actors from Thunderbolts will be playing their Earth-616 character versions instead of alternate ones.
In the upcoming movie, “Avengers: Doomsday,” the exact part that the Thunderbolts/New Avengers will play is yet to be revealed, but as per Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige, they’ll be teaming up with other superhero groups to battle Doom. The ending of “Thunderbolts” hinted at tension between the New Avengers and the original Avengers that Sam Wilson plans to assemble, suggesting an intriguing dynamic before “Avengers: Doomsday” hits cinemas in 2026. If history repeats itself like “Thunderbolts,” they might just come out victorious despite being perceived as the underdogs in the fight.
