Many Marvel fans will already know that in the comics, the Thunderbolts were actually created by Baron Zemo as a way of exploiting the apparent death of the Avengers after 1996’s “Onslaught” event (via Marvel Database). This new team were actually the Masters of Evil in disguise, although many members eventually decided to try their hand at genuine heroism.
The team’s live-action lineup is a little different, though, as they’re assembled by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine rather than Helmut Zemo (Daniel Bruhl). The team is made up of Bucky Barnes, Yelena Belova, (Florence Pugh), Red Guardian (David Harbour), Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), U.S. Agent (Wyatt Russell), and Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko). But when speaking to ExtraTV, Stan teased that the film itself will answer who on the team is a true villain, compared to the anti-heroes who aren’t afraid to push boundaries.
He explained, “Well again, maybe that’s what the movie is going to answer, right? It’s always interesting when you as an audience member have to maybe decide whether we are villains or heroes.” The star pointed out that this is what makes the film so unique, adding, “But I think that’s what compelling about the movie: it’s very unconventional like that. So it starts out a little bit like ‘Who’s really the protagonist or antagonist, I guess.”
Clearly, this morally ambiguous squad has a few apples in its ranks.
