The trailer for Marvel's Thunderbolts* reveals Earth's latest formidable "hero."

      With tickets for Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts now available ahead of next month’s release, a new trailer has surfaced online, showcasing Bucky Barnes recruiting a mismatched team to fill the gap (no pun intended, comic enthusiasts) left by the Avengers, as they work to save the day after Earth’s newest “hero” goes off course. Check out the new trailer below, along with a set of theater posters released today.

      In “Thunderbolts,” Marvel Studios brings together an unusual group of antiheroes — Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Taskmaster, and John Walker. Trapped in a deadly scheme orchestrated by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, these despondent outcasts must undertake a perilous mission that will challenge them to face the darkest aspects of their histories. Will this dysfunctional team implode, or will they find redemption and come together as something greater before it’s too late? Thunderbolts is directed by Jake Schreier (Paper Towns) and features a cast including Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, Olga Kurylenko, Lewis Pullman, Geraldine Viswanathan, Chris Bauer, and Wendell Pierce, alongside David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Thunderbolts is set to premiere on May 1st in the UK and on May 2nd in the US.
