The trailer cuts to scenes of Marvel’s other anti-heroes, U.S. Agent (Wyatt Russell) and Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), seemingly struggling with their own lives before teaming up for a mission.

The various heroes initially fight each other before discovering that they have been deliberately marked for death. “Someone wants us gone,” Yelena realizes.

Valentina gathers the Thunderbolts together, telling them that “there are bad guys and there are worse guys” in the world.

The trailer ends with Bucky blowing up a car with Yelena and her friends inside, but will he be against them or on their side? We have until May 2025 to guess.
