Thunderbolts* is an upcoming superhero film, based on the Marvel Comics team of the same name. The film is a sequel to Ant-Man and the Wasp, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and Black Widow. It is the thirty-sixth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the fourteenth installment of Phase Five. The film is set to be released on May 2, 2025.The Thunderbolts are a team of individuals with special characteristics who are recruited by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine to undertake missions for the CIA and the United States government.

When John Walker was publicly stripped of his title of "Captain America" by Congress at the United States Capitol, he was approached by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, who expressed sympathy for his situation. Believing Walker to still be of value to America's interests and aware that he had received the Super Soldier Serum, de Fontaine left him with her business card, hoping that he would pick up the phone when she called him. Walker later met with the de Fontaine at the Capitol once more, having played a part in defeating the Flag Smashers. There, she outfitted him with a new version of his Captain America suit and gave him the moniker "U.S. Agent". As Walker celebrated with his wife, de Fontaine told him that they would remain in touch.

In the comics, the first Thunderbolts team was formed by Baron Zemo as a fake superhero team to "replace" the Avengers after they were "killed" by Onslaught, only to be defeated when they came back from the dead. They eventually expelled Zemo and became a genuine team of heroes under Clint Barton. Later iterations of the team, composed of conscripted criminals, anti-heroes, and vigilantes, eventually became the most well-known versions of the Thunderbolts.

James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes is a World War II veteran, former officer of the 107th Infantry Regiment and the best friend of Steve Rogers since childhood. Barnes had enlisted into the Army following the attack on Pearl Harbor and was assigned to the 107th in 1943. His unit was captured by HYDRA, where Barnes was injected with the Super Soldier Serum by Arnim Zola. Barnes was rescued by Rogers, who had become Captain America. Barnes and Rogers then formed the Howling Commandos to battle Red Skull's forces. However, during the attempt to finally capture Zola in the Austrian Alps, Barnes was caught up in the ambush and plummeted hundreds of feet. As no body was recovered, Barnes was presumed deceased and honored as a hero who died in service to his country.

Unbeknownst to his team, Barnes' enhanced abilities allowed him to survive the fall, albeit with the loss of his left arm. Once he was found by the Soviet Armed Forces and HYDRA, Barnes was brainwashed and armed with a new cybernetic arm in order to become their operative, known as Winter Soldier. Over the next fifty years, he killed anyone who posed any kind of threat to HYDRA or the Soviet Union, including John F. Kennedy as well as Howard Stark and his wife, Maria. Between missions, Winter Soldier would be put back into a cryogenic stasis to ensure his longevity. In 2014, Winter Soldier was ordered by Alexander Pierce to kill Nick Fury, in order to ensure that all Pierce's schemes with Project Insight could go ahead. However, Winter Soldier was challenged by Steve Rogers, leading to him to begin remembering his prior life.

In the wake of the Battle at the Triskelion, Barnes, now free, deserted HYDRA in order to remember his past and end his long, violent history. Two years later, Barnes was framed for the bombing of the Vienna International Centre, which claimed the life of T'Chaka. As Black Panther then sought his revenge for his father's death, Barnes was repeatedly saved by Captain America, which sparked the Avengers Civil War as a team of Avengers led by Iron Man was sent to capture him. However, they learned that Helmut Zemo framed Barnes and reactivated his brainwashing so that Zemo could reveal that Barnes had murdered Stark's parents years ago. Having just survived Stark's revenge, Barnes was given amnesty in Wakanda by T'Challa and was placed in cryostasis until all HYDRA's control could be removed.
