The newest Marvel movie out right now is Thunderbolts*. It’s a team of good and bad people. A way to understand most of the movie and its characters is to watch other Marvel projects. The people in the team are Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Ghost, Taskmaster, Red Guardian, U.S Agent, and Sentry. In order to understand Yelena’s backstory, you must watch Black Widow, and the Hawkeye show. For Red Guardian you have to watch Black Widow. For Bucky its a lot of movies and a show, the biggest ones though would be. The first 3 Captain America movies, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Black Panther, and Avengers Infinity War. For Ghost you need to watch Ant Man and the Wasp. Task Master is also in Black Widow. And US Agent you need to watch Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Watching all of these other projects before Thunderbolts* would be great. Just watch Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and the first three Captain America movies.

Anyways, on May 4th I watched Thunderbolts*. And in my opinion, it’s probably the second best MCU movie since Endgame. Itss very emotional, there are great jokes, and overall it just does so well in cinematography and plot. I cried one time during the movie. It is a must watch of 2025. The end credits and post credits were really really good. Got my whole theater hyped up. So please watch Thunderbolts* this weekend.
