Florence Pugh Leads Marvel’s ‘Thunderbolts’ With Sebastian Stan: Release Date, Cast and More

Florence Pugh and Sebastian Stan return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Thunderbolts* alongside a few familiar faces.

Marvel confirmed at the D23 Expo in September 2022 that the Oscar-nominated actress will lead the 2025 movie. Pugh will reprise her role as Yelena Belova, the little sister of Scarlett Johansson‘s Natasha Romanoff and an assassin from Russia’s Black Widow program.

“I am unbelievably excited to be joining this cast,” Pugh told the audience at D23 in a pre-recorded video from the set of Dune 2.

n the Marvel Comics, the Thunderbolts team was a Suicide Squad-like group of super villains who teamed up. The movie has fewer top-level bad guys and leans more into characters who waver between good and bad, like Winter Soldier (Stan) and Red Guardian (David Harbour).
