I’m worried about 3 powerful MCU characters after the Thunderbolts* trailer

The first teaser trailer for thunderbolts* Got me worried about three of the MCU movie’s most powerful characters. I was thrilled when thunderbolts* is announced to be in development by Marvel boss Kevin Feige in 2022, especially since some of my favorite characters, many of whom have been underutilized in the MCU, are confirmed to return. While I can’t wait to see the anti-heroes and reformed villains back in action in Phase 5, I’m also concerned that not all of these characters will make it through. thunderbolts* in one piece.

thunderbolts The first teaser trailer was released on September 23, providing a first look at the returning anti-heroes involved in the upcoming Phase 5 movie. With eight months to go before thunderbolts* Premieres, I’m already very excited about the crossover movie. The trailer’s intensity, drama, action and chemistry between its six leads is palpable, but I’m nervous that not all of them will survive. I’m even more convinced that this will happen because several members of the MCU’s first Thunderbolts team share many similarities.

There are too many super soldiers in Thunderbolts*

Bucky Barnes, Alexei Shostakov & John Walker share similar abilities

Since Feige first announced the cast of thunderbolts* In 2022, I was confused about the inclusion of so many super soldiers. Bucky Barnes’ Winter Soldier, Alexei Shostakov’s Red Guardian and John Walker’s US it. Agents all have practically the same abilities, which makes it easy to get rid of one, or even two, without impacting the team too much. I am one of many who are curious as to why so many super soldiers are involved while some of Marvel’s most iconic Thunderbolts members seem to be ignored..

While I would love to see the likes of Baron Zemo, Abomination, the Red Hulk and many more possible Thunderbolts members join the titular team in the MCU’s Phase 5, I figure there’s only one obvious reason why Marvel would include so many super soldiers instead. Bucky Barnes, Alexei Shostakov, and John Walker are all big personalities in the MCU, with formidable gifts, but they may, in fact, be expendable. While I would consider it a shame to rid the MCU of the anti-heroes, this could be a great choice for thunderbolts*.

I think Red Guardian, US. it. Agent or the Winter Soldier will be killed off in Thunderbolts*

I’m sure at least one super soldier will die in Thunderbolts*

With three super soldiers in the MCU’s first Thunderbolts team, it makes sense that at least one of them would be killed off. Worryingly, this puts Bucky Barnes, Alexei Shostakov and John Walker on the chopping block, the first teaser trailer for thunderbolts* Supports my thoughts, like John Walker suffers with his purpose, Alexei Shostakov’s loneliness and boredom eats him up, and Bucky Barnes seems to be still struggling with his past as the Winter Soldier.. Death could be the answer for any of these anti-heroes, as sad as that would be.

Bucky Barnes’ death makes the most sense for the MCU (but would still be a shame)

Thunderbolts* may or may not be Bucky Barnes’ perfect swansong

The death that makes the most sense to me in thunderbolts* is Bucky Barnes. Sebastian Stan made his MCU debut in 2011 Captain America: The First AvengerMaking him one of the longest-running characters in the franchise, which means he may be right to be killed off. Unfortunately, I think this is the most likely event in thunderbolts*Especially since I don’t think Marvel Studios has had Bucky Barnes right in several years. yet Captain America: The Winter SoldierBucky was severely mistreated, so his death could be the huge moment he needs.

Bucky Barnes dies in thunderbolts* Makes sense for the overall narrative of the MCU. His best friend, Steve Rogers, retreated into the past with Peggy Carter, while Sam Wilson took the role of Captain America and left for greater adventures. Bucky is now alone, so his next steps in the MCU are uncertain. While Bucky’s death in thunderbolts* Might make sense, I still think it would be a shame, especially after 2021 The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Saw him finally start to become a bona fide superhero.

Why I want to see more of Red Guardian and US. it. Agent

Red Guardian and US it. Agents deserve more attention in the MCU

While Bucky Barnes dead in thunderbolts* Seems very likely, I’m also worried that either Red Guardian or US. it. Agent may bite the dust. Both are bored and frustrated with their lives thunderbolts First trailer, so I can picture one of them making the sacrifice game in order to give their life a real purpose. This would certainly make for an emotional moment in thunderbolts*Especially since John Walker now has a child, and Alexei Shostakov’s surrogate daughter, Yelena Belova, is also a Thunderbolt.

Both David Harbour’s Alexei Shostakov and Wyatt Russell John Walker debuted in 2021The first in Black Widow And the last in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. We haven’t seen any of them in the MCU since their first appearances, so that would be a shame thunderbolts* To kill them off so soon. I want to see Red Guardian and US. it. Agent get Phil More development, perhaps even turning into true heroes themselves, but this unfortunately convinced me that Bucky Barnes’ winter soldier will not survive after his next MCU appearance.
