The premiere of Marvel's "Thunderbolts" introduced a diverse cast of antiheroes marked by personal struggles and traumas. Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, and others embody characters who represent the complexities of loss and recovery. John-Kamen emphasized that the characters are misfits navigating their difficult experiences. Stan noted the relatability of the characters, contributing to a unique narrative tone. Pugh's Yelena Belova is depicted as having transformed significantly since her last appearance. The film suggests themes of forgiveness and courage, creating an intriguing dynamic within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
"All the characters in this are basically kind of these misfits existing in this world that have come from very difficult traumas," said John-Kamen, who plays Ava Starr/Ghost.
"They're also very real characters," said Stan, who returns as Bucky Barnes. "I think they're going to be more relatable to people in a way. We have our own tone."
"I love this universe," said Harbour, who portrays Alexei Shostakov/Red Guardian. "I think it's America's mythology in a certain way, and it's our way of creating these metaphors and these archetypes."
"She's changed in a huge way," Pugh said about her role as Yelena Belova. "She's lost, I guess, the spark that we fell in love with her for in 'Black Widow.' We get to see her open up and reach out and essentially find her new family in this movie."
