Marvel Thunderbolts Storyline  

The Marvel Thunderbolt New Trailer indicates that the film will be packed with action, excitement, and a lot of thunder. However, in the latest Special Preview shared at the D23 Expo in Brazil, Marvel and Disney premiered an even more detailed look with an almost 4 minutes extended cut of the trailer. The preview begins with the misfits riding on a deserted highway in an old red limo, owned by Red Guardian. They are unexpectedly attacked by a military convoy but seem to be well-armed. Yelena pulls out of the car window and singlehandedly fires at the convoy. The military vehicle is destroyed, which indicates that she carries enough ammunition. Through the smoke, they are able to recognize their friend, Bucky. However, Bucky charges with an exploitative device towards their vehicle which leads it to tumble over. 

The next scene shifts to the team gathering at the famous Avengers Tower, owned by Tony Stark. They are summoned by Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, who seems to have a task for them at hand. The building is now guarded by the US Government. The following scenes are filled with intense action and high suspense. With this preview, one thing remains clear. The misfits must make it out alive of whatever task they have been assigned together.
