Marvel’s ‘Thunderbolts*’ Will Lose Millions At Box Office, Report Says
- Marvel Studios released the movie Thunderbolts in early May 2025, premiering in theaters worldwide as the 36th MCU film.
- The film needed to earn $425 million globally to break even, but it faced challenges due to lesser-known characters and market shifts.
- Thunderbolts earned about $371 million worldwide on a $180 million production budget but underperformed compared to earlier MCU hits.
- Disney CEO Bob Iger called Thunderbolts the 'first and best' example of Marvel's new movie strategy despite it being one of the lowest-grossing MCU films.
- The film's commercial shortfall caused estimated losses near $50 million, though the Thunderbolts will return in Avengers: Doomsday in 2026 and Secret Wars in 2027.
