The highly anticipated trailer for Marvel's Thunderbolts, unveiled at Comic-Con, has sent fans into a frenzy of speculation and excitement. The trailer introduces the team's members: Red Guardian, Yelena Belova, US Agent, Ghost, Taskmaster, and the enigmatic Sentry.

Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, the director of the CIA, assembles this motley crew of anti-heroes for a mysterious mission to extract an individual named Bob from a facility. However, the team soon realizes they have fallen into a deadly trap orchestrated by Val herself.

Fans theorize that this film will set the stage for the introduction of the Dark Avengers and the return of Sentry, a powerful but unstable superhero. The asterisk in the movie's title has sparked speculation, with some suggesting it represents the six bullet holes formed by the main characters.

While the trailer doesn't reveal much about the plot, it teases a thrilling and action-packed adventure with unexpected twists and turns. Fans are also eager to see how this movie connects to the wider MCU, particularly with the upcoming Avengers 5. While connections to the Fantastic Four movie have been ruled out, there's speculation about a potential post-credit scene teasing the next Avengers installment.

As anticipation builds for the Thunderbolts' release, fans are dissecting every frame of the trailer and formulating theories about the team's fate and the role they will play in the future of the MCU.
