Ayo Edebiri Leaves Marvel’s ‘Thunderbolts’

The latest update on Marvel's 'Thunderbolts' reads like a star-studded rollercoaster. Ayo Edebiri, who was set to shine in 'The Bear' star role, had to exit stage left due to a clash in schedules with a secret project.

But fear not, Marvel aficionados, because filling those formidable shoes is none other than the talented Geraldine Viswanathan. The deets on what role they're tackling remain tightly wrapped, keeping us in suspense like a well-crafted thriller.

Edebiri isn't the first to bow out of the 'Thunderbolts' limelight. Steven Yeun made a similar exit earlier due to scheduling acrobatics, but fear not, as the skies are guarded by none other than Jake Schreier, the 'Top Gun: Maverick' maestro, ready to soar in Yeun's stead.

Let's not forget about Geraldine Viswanathan, who's not new to the spotlight, shining in 'Blockers,' 'Bad Education,' 'The Beanie Bubble' and Miracle Workers.

As for the rest of the ensemble, we've got a Marvel-ous lineup: Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier, David Harbour as Red Guardian, Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, Wyatt Russell as U.S. Agent John Walker, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, and Olga Kurylenko as Taskmaster.

Now, what's 'Thunderbolts' all about? Picture this: a squad of reformed baddies doing the dirty work the Avengers won't touch. Think DC's 'Suicide Squad,' but with that Marvel twist.

Originally set to grace our screens in July 2024, Thunderbolts got a rain check to July 2025 thanks to the SAG-AFTRA strike in Hollywood last year.
