So THAT’s What 'Thunderbolts*' Asterisk Means!

Editor's note: The following contains spoilers for 'Thunderbolts*'Thunderbolts*stands out in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for many reasons. Its cast is made up of characters who fall squarely into the gray areas of morality, due to their pasts as mercenaries and black ops agents. It's a film that mixes the pulse-pounding action of the Avengers films with the heartfelt chaos of the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy. But one of the biggest things that's hanging over Thunderbolts* is the asterisk at the end of its title. What, exactly, did that mean? Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige did highlight the asterisk at CinemaCon 2024, saying that fans would have to see the film to figure out its meaning...and he was right, because it's hiding a major spoiler.
