Marvel Studios recently dropped a new teaser video for their upcoming movie “Thunderbolts,” taking inspiration from the trailer format of renowned independent entertainment production company A24. Known for distributing arthouse and original films, A24 has gained the admiration of moviegoers with titles such as “Hereditary,” “Lady Bird,” “The Brutalist,” “Past Lives,” as well as Best Picture Oscar winners “Everything Everywhere All At Once” and “Moonlight.”
The teaser, titled “Absolute Cinema,” serves as a reference to a meme featuring acclaimed director Martin Scorsese and subtly pokes fun at his previous remarks about superhero films not being considered “real cinema.” The video opens with an A24-style Marvel Studios logo and highlights the cast members who have starred in A24 films such as “Midsommar,” “A Different Man,” and “You Hurt My Feelings.”
Florence Pugh, known for her role as Yelena Belova, was a breakout star in “Midsommar.” Sebastian Stan, who portrays Bucky Barnes, appeared in “A Different Man” last year, while Julia Louis-Dreyfus, playing Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, led the cast of “You Hurt My Feelings” in 2023. The teaser also credits director Jake Schreir and writers Lee Sung-jin and Joanna Calo, who were instrumental in the creation of the Netflix series “Beef,” along with other creative members who have worked on past A24 projects.
The video showcases new clips from “Thunderbolts,” all presented in the distinctive A24 style, and gives viewers a glimpse of what to expect from the film. “Thunderbolts” is set to be the final movie in Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and is scheduled to hit Philippine theaters in May 2025.
This unique approach to promoting “Thunderbolts” has generated excitement among fans, as Marvel Studios continues to push boundaries and experiment with different marketing strategies. By collaborating with A24 and taking inspiration from their cinematic style, Marvel aims to create a new and innovative viewing experience for audiences.
As the release date of “Thunderbolts” draws closer, anticipation is building for what promises to be a visually stunning and emotionally impactful addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Stay tuned for more updates and behind-the-scenes glimpses as the film’s premiere approaches.
