A few months in the past it was rumored that Steven Yuen could be taking part in The Sentry in Marvel’s upcoming movie Thunderbolts. Invincible creator Robert Kirkman has now confirmed that information in a current interview. While Yuen has been tight-lipped on who he’s taking part in, Kirkmam had no downside about spilling the Marvel beans as a result of what are they going to do to him?
Kirkman was a visitor on artist David Finch’s YouTube channel when Kirkman introduced up Yeun and Sentry. zhe revealed:
“My good friend Steven Yeun is playing The Sentry in a movie. He called me, he went in for a costume fitting. I don’t think this is a spoiler, or anything that will get anybody in trouble. I don’t know, maybe, we’ll see. I don’t care, I don’t work for Marvel. What are they going to do to me? He called me and said, ‘I just came back from a costume fitting for Sentry. I guess I only do superheroes that wear yellow and blue.'”
As you understand, Steven Yeun additionally voices Mark Grayson/Invincible in Kirkman’s Prime Video adult-animated collection Invincible. I think about since this information is spreading throughout the web at present, Yeun goes to be giving Kirkman a WTF name.
The Sentry is a deranged and extremely highly effective character, and it was beforehand reported that he will probably be a part of Val’s Thunderbolts group and will probably be concerned for the primary two acts earlier than “something rips him away from them.”
It’s probably that the one thing that rips him away will probably be The Void, which is the darkish entity that bonded to Bob Reynolds when he grew to become the Sentry, and acts as a counterforce and embodiment of his adverse elements. It is extra of a drive than an individual however can take any form it chooses.
The Void is so highly effective that it’s able to destroying the Earth, and your complete universe if it needed to. Reynolds fights a relentless interior battle to maintain the Void at bay because it comes into being each time he makes use of his powers and is his everlasting nemesis, born in his personal psyche.
It was additionally reported that the character goes to be carrying a comic-accurate costume in the movie. Yuen goes to be nice in this function and I’m curious to see the place they take the character’s story arc in the MCU.
Yeun joins an ensemble solid in Thunderbolts that features Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes who will probably be main the group, David Harbour as Red Guardian, Julie Louis-Dreyfus as Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, Wyatt Russell as US Agent, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, Olga Kurylenko as Taskmaster, and naturally, Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova. Then there’s Harrison Ford, who’s taking over the function of General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross who’s going to be President of the United States in Captain America: New World Order. Ayo Edebiri additionally joined the solid in an undisclosed function.
The movie is being directed by Jake Schreier (Paper Towns, Kidding), from a script by Eric Pearson (Thor: Ragnarok, Black Widow) and Kurt Busiek. Thunderbolts is presently set to be launched in theaters on July 25, 2025.
