Marvel's 'Thunderbolts': Cast, Release Date and Everything We Know

Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Sebastian Stan and more are set to star in the newest MCU team-up.

In the Marvel comics canon, Yelena takes up the Black Widow mantle, and following the death of Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff in Avengers: Endgame, there's plenty of speculation that the official title could be in the future for Pugh's character, who seems to have becoming something of an assassin-for-hire in the MCU so far. When asked if he might also make an appearance in the forthcoming Captain America: New World Order, where Mackie's Sam Wilson officially takes up the cinematic mantle, Stan quipped, "I specifically requested that I would need some time from Anthony, because I need to sort of find my way back to me." Taskmaster's ability to mimic fighting styles has made the character a well-known adversary of Captain America, Ant-Man and Spider-Man in the comics, and has worked with everyone from Wilson Fisk to Kraven the Hunter, opening the door to plenty of possible future storylines.
