Thunderbolts’ commitment to looking like an unconventional Marvel movie even extends to its stunt work.
The last few weeks, Marvel’s being going out of its way to promote Thunderbolts as not your average MCU outing. It’s got big-name actors, sure, but they’re from mid-size hits like A Different Man and Midsommar, and creative forces behind Beef, Minari, and Everything Everywhere All at Once. Now, it’s telling you it’s a different type of film by hyping up the realness of its stunts.
