Thunderbolts* stars Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, Geraldine Viswanathan, Lewis Pullman, Olga Kurylenko, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

While the trailer looks action-packed, the first poster of Thunderbolts* grabbed our interest because it gave us a sense of deja vu. The poster features its main lead characters - Florence Pugh's Yelena, Hannah John-Kamen's Ghost, Wyatt Russell's US Agent, David Harbour's Red Guardian, Olga Kurylenko's Taskmaster, Lewis Pullman's Bob (Sentry) and Sebastian Stan's Bucky. Save for Yelena who is in a thinking pose, others are fighting or struggling against each other.
