Thunderbolts' Surprise Twist: Marvel's Future Revealed

About this episode

Thunderbolts Original Script Had a Shocking Ending: Wyatt Russell Reveals All

Wyatt Russell, who plays John Walker in Thunderbolts, shared a surprising revelation at a recent fan event. The original script had every single team member dying by the end, which would have significantly reduced the number of Thunderbolts characters in the next big Avengers movie.

However, the version we saw was quite different. Only Taskmaster met his end, and that happened well before the team even formed. This change opens up opportunities for more crossovers and richer team dynamics in future films.

Fans are excited about the potential for heartfelt moments between characters like Yelena Belova, Red Guardian, John Walker, and Winter Soldier. Rumors are also swirling about Yelena clashing with Mystique and Sentry pulling off a major save during an incursion.

The Russos are directing Avengers: Doomsday, set to release on December 18, 2026. The shift in the story keeps the antiheroes in play for Marvels future battles.
