Thunderbolts* ft. Jake Schreier
Description
Jake Schreier's Thunderbolts*, aka the 36th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, sees a group of the MCU's ne'er do wells, like Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, and Red Guardian, thrown together by circumstances and given a shot at redemption. And now that the film has been out for a couple of weeks (and now we know what the asterisk means), it's the perfect time for the Empire Podcast spoiler special treatment. First, Chris Hewitt sits down with Schreier to talk about the film's key twists and turns, and its unconventional third act, and then Chris is joined by Helen O'Hara and Amon Warmann for a deep dive into the movie. A dive so deep that they ran out of time before tackling listener questions, so those will be answered in a separate show. In the meantime, enjoy.
