Thunderbolts actor wanted to change his character's name but was told no: "It's in the comics, you can't change that"

Lewis Pullman as "Bob" in Thunderbolts*.

Actor Lewis Pullman portrays the mysteriously named "Bob" in Thunderbolts* (who Marvel fans know is the MCU adaptation of the superhero the Sentry). But if Pullman had his way, his character wouldn't have been called "Bob" at all, as he wasn't keen on the name.

Why was Pullman down on "Bob"? It's simple - he just played a different guy named Bob in Top Gun: Maverick, and didn't want to repeat himself by portraying a second Bob so quickly.
