Marvel fans now know when Thunderbolts* will arrive on Disney+.
When is the Thunderbolts* Disney+ streaming release date?
According to a Greek Disney+ TV spot, Thunderbolts* will be added to the Disney-owned streaming service on August 27, 2025, roughly three months after the superhero movie was released in theaters. Thunderbolts* was previously released for digital download on July 1 and on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD on July 29.
Directed by Jake Schreier, Thunderbolts* brought together six fan-favorite characters from previous Marvel Cinematic Universe projects: Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh), Red Guardian (David Harbour), and Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) from Black Widow, John Walker (Wyatt Russell) and Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen) from Ant-Man and the Wasp. The superhero crossover movie saw the anti-heroes reluctantly teaming up to stop Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ Valentina Allegra de Fontaine and Lewis Pullman’s Bob/Sentry/Void.
At the end of Thunderbolts*, the titular team and Pullman’s Bob were rebranded as the New Avengers by Fontaine, much to the confusion of the general public. The movie’s post-credits scene subsequently set up their next appearance in the MCU, which will be in Avengers: Doomsday, showing the New Avengers dealing with trademark infringement as well as the arrival of the Fantastic Four to their universe.
