Ultimately, things specified where production was stopped briefly forever. While his addition in the movie was never ever outright validated by Marvel in any main sense, it’s been understood for a long timeand Invincible developer Robert Kirkman just recently let it slip that Yeun would be playing the Sentrya Marvel hero with a diverse selection of powers.
Thunderbolts was revealed back in 2022and for all intents and functions, seems the MCU equivalent of DC’s Suicide Squad movies. As exposed at the D23 presser that exact same year, far, the movie’s validated cast consists of franchise alums Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Solider, Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova/Black Widow II, and David Harbour’s Red Guardian. Yeun would’ve signed up with The Bear’s Ayo Ediberi as a set of brand-new additions to the superhero franchise, and sometimes of composing, her function continues to be under covers.
Currently, Marvel hasn’t discussed Yeun’s exit, and it’s simply as uncertain who’ll wind up changing him. Now, it’s not understood when Thunderbolts’ production will launch, however it continues to have actually an anticipated release date of July 25, 2025.
