The way Sebastian tries to say something THREE times and when he tries the fourth time no one really listens to him 😭 but it's so cute how he still laughed at his own joke

[@user39265]

omg yes that made me sad he doesn't have a Chris or Anthony type bond here it seems

@@user39265no I think it’s just coz he was sitting far from the guys he’s closest coz it seems like he was tryna reach over to them 😂

i’m so excited to see david, florence, and sebastian in the same movie gosh they’re literally my favorite celebrities and i absolutely adore their characters too ❤

[@silentscream4466]

Same❤

[@SongofIceandTea]

Stan as the only Avenger in the team, hope this wouldn't be his last MCU

[@MysticTroll]

He had a 9 project deal, so 7/9, last 2 will probs be Doomsday and Secret Wars

[@szn1580]

Insane

[@Lovemetender757]

@@MysticTrollit’s possible the contract got extended. That contract was made over ten years ago.

[@omarslayz]

i strongly feel like it won’t be his last. they’d most likely want to keep the new captain america and winter soldier still around. and here’s an idea, how about for a black widow sequel to focus on yelena as white widow or the new black widow and bucky as the winter soldier/white wolf. it would definitely be interesting since they didn’t do anything with natasha and bucky and it would give both characters something to do after thunderbolts

[@anasshahid224]

Same! He’s an amazing actor, we need him to stay in the MCU.

[@killjoyqueenz]

I just wanna see Yelena and Bucky interacting or acting together i think it might be interesting cuz they're both assassins or were whatever

[@ThedudeAbibes]

Considering that winter soldier ended up in a relationship with black widow in the Comics and now she dead in the MCU, they might do that but with Yelena and Bucky, maybe, that be cool

[@gwendyguppy510]

@@ThedudeAbibes I am rooting for that!!

That better be a Rated R movie ​@zarakikempachi1072

letz hope not, yelena is her own character, not natasha, and in the comics, she and bucky are not in a romantic relationship, she is implied asexual actually in the comics ​@ThedudeAbibes

12:35 notice how florence comforts lewis after that bs question. such a veteran to this circus :D

[@marwan4514]

their chemistry together it’s insane cant wait to watch

[@SpySkater1]

I am dying to see Yelena, Ghost, and Bucky interact. My favorite indoctrinated assassins turned heroes. I love this cast. All their interviews make it sound like they’ve had a great time together and so do the pictures from SDCC. People saying Sebastian looks uncomfortable clearly haven’t seen the photos of him hanging out with the others before or after the panel. He’s a grown man, not a child.

[@CaptainPikeachu]

I love this cast, also Wyatt's talk about stunts is hilarious, we stan our not-my-stunt king

[@emilyneuls]

yess we do!!!

[@RatchetK-ei8mk]

Sebastian Stan and Hannah John Kamen from deadly assassins to reform heroes.

What a time we live in

[@AboutAGirl-li9no]

what an amazing arc

[@veggiewillymass]

U can include Florence and David in that too

[@minipie1224]

0:44 "it starts out terrible and then it ends pretty terrible too." my poor baby

why did he say that?🤣

[@leviskata]

he even said they’re expanding on Black Widow movie after that...😭

[@freshcola6301]

12:34 just with that we know Florence Pugh is the heart of the movie !!

[@elisiaw5515]

I noticed that too - she’s a class act ❤

[@bottunde]

What did she do?

[@melgapugh]

​@@bottunde I think she went to check if Lewis was okay, maybe because of the interviewer's question

[@ApexGamer-eo8zc]

I like this cast, but man do I wish Zemo and Abomination were a part of it.

[@ThiagoV928]

they maybe are...its just we havent seen them yet...like thunderbolt ross

[@Fatcat5113]

You never know...

[@fortelewisandrew2426]

Without Zemo, there isn't any THUNDERBOLTS *.

[@DeeDee_Em]

I love seeing them cracking up together. The gag reel is going to be wild.

[@nea.bug13]

They’re so chaotic I love them already

[@Fatcat5113]

This cast is so likeable. I bet this movie is gonna surprise us.

[@nathangovender771]

Genuinely think this is the kind of movie marvel really needs. An ensemble movie of characters that deserve follow ups, but aren’t quite avengers level. And for a while they were building up to it but honestly it should have come out sooner.

[@izzyisabrat]

this film is gonna be like the darker version of the guardians and i’m so here for it

[@themadtitan7603]

@@izzyisabrat Yeah, the same dysfunctional family dynamic but grittier and possibly with a more morally grey cast of characters.

[@andrimufid2195]

Great to see Lewis here, huge fan since BTAER

[@Wolfhunter5607]

“what are we some kind of thunderbolt squad”

[@utkarsharora9081]

Sebastian who's been at it since 2010 should like lead this panel!

Sebastian, if you are reading this, we love you, have a great weekend ❤

Beautiful girl Hannah John Kamen as Ava Starr/Ghost in Thunderbolts!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@jayd5497]

Has this ever been asked of Sebastian? "Why isn't Bucky in Captain America Brave New World?" :(

[@bad2dabohn1992]

My guess is because within the universe Cap and Thunderbolts take place within the same time frame but obviously we won't know until the movie

[@davidblank420]

Gotta let them stand on their own for a bit so the reunion will be gold.

[@calcutlass]

He may be

[@theswiftietribute13]

the marvel directors wanted Sam to have his own movie without bucky sharing the spotlight with him as bucky is such a popular character, I think is what someone said

[@berliandivaaulia3995]

4:03 and this is why I love Florence Pugh😂

Yay Florence has her septum ring on again She looks so good

[@lacrartezorok4975]

Since Winter Soldier used to wear a red star but he didn't work for the USRR, so it may have been to mislead the NATO, it would be funny if he revealed Red Guardian that he was the Captain America that he had met.

Florence is such a babe 😅

Too many characters in one movie. Hope the characters are developed equally well for every single one. I hope no one is being sidelined.

I’m really hoping that Geraldine Viswanathan is playing Melissa Gold. One of the best reoccurring members of the Thunderbolts.

[@ChloeRaine-jn4wu]

Incorrect. Bucky was never a villain.

he was posed as one tho. the whole plot of ca winter soldier is to stop bucky and save him. he was turned into a villain despite not him wanting to be

[@ChloeRaine-jn4wu]

@@izzyisabrat I know, but I still don’t like it when people say ‘Bucky was a villain’ because in my eyes he was always a victim. I get what he meant though.

Yaaaad seb🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

[@StaminaMC]

Coulda done with less of the 'scoop-fishing' questions, tbh… just one or two at most as icebreakers. Like, even were they willing to share for some inexplicable reason I'd still actually rather not know what'll happen, or what to expect before anyone's even cut a trailer. Anecdotes, the process, actor preparation, on-set morale, unexpected incidents (good and/or bad)… there's plenty of interesting and not-as-specific stuff they could share with us.
