Marvel's anticipated hit film arrives on Disney+ earlier than anticipated
Disney+ subscribers are in for a treat as the highly-anticipated Marvel Studios movie, Thunderbolts, is set to stream exclusively on the platform from Wednesday, 27 August 2025. This action-packed adventure brings together a team of antiheroes, including Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Taskmaster, and John Walker, in a mission that tests their limits and explores themes of redemption and teamwork.
The plot revolves around Valentina Allegra de Fontaine orchestrating a deadly situation for the team, forcing them to work together to complete a dangerous mission. Thunderbolts delves into the characters' complicated motivations and relationships, portraying them as hired guns rather than outright villains. The movie is a blend of super-powered action, humour, and character-driven drama, offering a fresh take on the Avengers.
Thunderbolts has been praised for its witty, sharp script and its ability to reinvigorate interest in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While the MCU has had more flops than hits over the last few years, Thunderbolts has proven to be a box office success and a critical darling, scoring a mighty 93% by viewers on Rotten Tomatoes.
For those who have already watched Thunderbolts via rental services like Apple TV and Amazon Prime, this will be the first time they can enjoy the movie at no extra cost (beyond a Disney+ subscription). Disney+ offers two tiers: Standard and Premium. The Standard tier, priced at £8.99 per month or £89.90 for a year, does not include advertisements and allows offline viewing on up to 10 devices. The Premium tier, priced at £12.99 per month (£129.90 for a year), offers 4K HDR (Dolby Vision) video and up to Dolby Atmos audio, simultaneous streaming on four devices, and offline viewing.
In the UK, the Disney+ Standard with Ads tier is available for £4.99 per month, presenting all content in 1080p and 5.1 audio, with simultaneous streaming on two devices, but no offline viewing. The Premium tier offers the highest level of access and features, making it the ideal choice for those seeking the best viewing experience.
As Thunderbolts continues to drive the new wave of improved MCU experiences, fans are eagerly awaiting its arrival on Disney+. With its blend of action, drama, and humour, and its exploration of redemption and teamwork, Thunderbolts promises to be a thrilling addition to Disney+'s content library.
Please note that in some regions, including the US, Disney+ plans may vary slightly. Always check with your local version for more information.
