Warning: This article contains spoilers for Thunderbolts*.Marvel’s Thunderbolts* reveals its closest-guarded secrets after a long marketing campaign that successfully kept major MCU spoilers under wraps. Jake Schreier’s Thunderbolts* culminates the MCU’s Phase 5 and begins a new chapter in the lives of multiple characters. With the exception of Lewis Pullman’s Bob and Geraldine Viswanathan’s Mel, every major character in the Thunderbolts* cast has a history fighting heroes or villains. Thanks to Valentina Allegra de Fontaine’s egocentric desire to create a new superhero team, the Thunderbolts assemble for the first time in the MCU.
