Did Thunderbolts*’ Void Get Other Marvel Heroes? The Movie’s Writer Offers Honest Thoughts

by

Following much excitement and conjecture regarding the asterisk (*), the movie “Thunderbolts” has officially been added to the 2025 release schedule and skyrocketed to the top spot. This new addition is reportedly responsible for reigniting Marvel Cinatic Universe (MCU) fans’ enthusiasm for the expansive franchise, but those who have watched it are curious about which other Marvel characters might have fallen victim to The Void. Now, the film’s writer has candidly addressed these questions.

What Did Thunderbolts* Writer Say About Which MCU Heroes The Void Got?

As a devoted fan, I must admit that the conclusion of the “Thunderbolts” movie has sparked some debate regarding the team’s name and the bond between key characters. However, both audiences and critics seem to be enthusiastically on board with what the film is offering, as our review points out that it successfully injects some excitement back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This enthusiasm is particularly fueled by Florence Pugh’s exceptional, outstanding performance.

A hot topic among viewers these days concerns the characters captured by The Void, a powerful antagonist in the movie. Known for his ability to teleport people to a place outside of regular time and space where things often don’t end well, there’s speculation about which New York City superheroes (excluding Thunderbolt) might have fallen victim to this power. The film’s backdrop being the bustling city of New York, the question that arises is just how many heroes from our city could have been affected by The Void. When Screenrant inquired about this with the co-writer, Eric Pearson, he confirmed that:

I won’t disclose the details about its route since I haven’t studied the map thoroughly enough to confirm if it reached Bleecker Street or not. However, I have a feeling that the event is unfolding much quicker than anticipated. It seems like time is behaving differently in this situation, similar to how it operates in unusual places like the Void Space in Thor: Ragnarok. You never know how long it’s been there! It might only be a second.

In the intricate labyrinth of the Marvel multiverse, it’s challenging to pinpoint the exact duration when one is whisked away to the enigmatic Void Space, and equally difficult to gauge the passage of time while ensconced within its depths. Consequently, as a city is engulfed in darkness with inhabitants from all walks of life mysteriously transported there, we remain uncertain about the scope of this phenomenon, the identities of those entangled, and whether seasoned heroes like Doctor Strange were fully apprised of the situation.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel thrilled by the mystery that shrouds the upcoming details. After all, what makes this series unique is the delightful surprises it consistently serves up, and I have no doubt that it will continue to do so as we move forward.
