Sebastian Stan says Marvel's Thunderbolts will be a "nice treat" for fans.
Thunderbolts follows the Marvel Comics team comprised of Bucky Barnes (Stan), aka Winter Soldier, Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh), a Black Widow, Alexei Shostakov (David Harbour), aka Red Guardian, John Walker (Wyatt Russell), aka U.S. Agent, Antonia Dreykov (Olga Kurylenko), aka Taskmaster, and Ava Starr (Hannah John-Kamen), aka Ghost.
Other cast members include Lewis Pullman, Geraldine Viswanathan, Chris Bauer, Wendell Edward Pierce and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
"We're really a group all on our own, on our own island, so to speak," Stan said. "...Wyatt Russell and David Harbour are some of the funniest people. Julia Louis-Dreyfus is amazing, Florence Pugh. And so I'm excited about what people are going to say. I think it's going to be a nice treat."
Stan has played Barnes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe since the 2011 film Captain America: The First Avenger. On Late Night, he likened his character to "a brother," and also mentioned the support he's received from his Marvel co-stars."I mean, I've grown up with Marvel essentially," Stan told Meyers. "I grew as an actor and with this character. It's like I have a brother in a way, a family member I see for Thanksgiving every year -- that's how it feels."
"They're so supportive and I think if I didn't have them, honestly, I don't know if I would have taken these chances," he added, referring to support for his other projects, which include A Different Man and The Apprentice.
