Now that Captain America: Brave New World is hitting theaters, Marvel fans are looking ahead to the next MCU movie on the roster, Thunderbolts. However, it’s not really called Thunderbolts. The proper title is Thunderbolts*, complete with an inexplicable asterisk that seemed to be there for no particular reason.
Marvel hasn’t commented on it, but that hasn’t stopped fans from guessing about its purpose. Maybe it’s to distance the team from President Thaddeus Ross, maybe it’s to poke fun at the fact the team looks nothing like its comics counterpart, or maybe, as the trailer suggests, it’s just to note that not everyone on the team approves of the name.
