Thunderbolts* post-credits scenes' details leaked online ahead of the movie's release; read here
Thunderbolts* post-credits scenes leaked online: Thunderbolts*, the latest entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, held its world premiere on Tuesday (April 22) in London, and as expected, spoilers are already making the rounds online. While early reviews have been overwhelmingly positive, it's the post-credits scenes that have Marvel fans in a frenzy. The film reportedly includes both a mid-credits and a post-credits scene, marking the first time since Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 that Marvel has doubled down on end-credit teases.
Thunderbolts* has two post-credits scenes
According to a post from pop culture account Culture Crave, Thunderbolts* won't just have one, but two post-credits scenes. Longtime MCU fans know that early Marvel films typically ended with a single teaser, but that changed with 2012's The Avengers, which introduced the now-classic combo of a mid-credits scene followed by one at the very end.

That two-scene format became a trademark during Phases 2 and 3, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 even went all out with five post-credit moments. But ever since Avengers: Endgame skipped the tradition altogether, Marvel has dialed it back. In fact, the last three movies only gave fans one bonus scene each.
What are the two post-credits scenes in Thunderbolts*?
Details about the first post-credits scene in Thunderbolts* are not clearly known, with conflicting reports making it difficult to confirm any information. However, the second post-credits scene has been described in detail.
According to a report by ComicBookMovie.com, the post-credits sequence is said to show the New Avengers team in their tower discussing how Sam has recruited his own New Avengers team and has the copyright for that name. Suddenly, they receive news of something coming from space: the Fantastic Four ship entering their universe. This potential cameo has generated significant buzz, especially after Pedro Pascal attended the screening of the film.
More about Thunderbolts*
Thunderbolts* is picking up Marvel's thread of diving into morally grey territory, this time with Florence Pugh and Sebastian Stan leading the charge. The film is set to hit theaters on May 1, 2025.

Taika Waititi's Akira adaptation is no more; Warner Bros lets go of the movie rights, starting a new bidding war
Akira, the iconic 1982 manga series by Katsuhiro Otomo that was adapted into a cult classic 1988 anime film, has been struggling to get a Hollywood live-action adaptation off the ground for decades. The process has faced another setback with Warner Bros relinquishing the film rights, effectively killing Taika Waititi's attempt to adapt the series. After the 1988 film's smash success, Hollywood was quick to take an interest in Katsuhiro Otomo's intellectual property, with Warner Bros acquiring the rights from Sony Pictures in 2002 and making multiple attempts at getting a film off the ground. The most recent of these was Taika Waititi's, with him wanting to remain faithful to the original manga plotline and cast Asian-American actors in the leading roles. Akira adaptation rights revert to Kodansha Taika Waititi's live action #Akira film is no longer happening Warner Bros has lost the rights (via @THR) With Warner Bros relinquishing Akira's film rights, they've reverted back to the manga's publisher, Kodansha. This has, per the Hollywood reporter, caught the attention of several Hollywood studios and streaming services aiming to acquire the rights for themselves. The original manga's plotline followed Tetsuo, a teenager in post-apocalyptic Tokyo who's part of a biker gang with his childhood friend and gang leader Kaneda. Tetsuo discovers he has world-ending telekinesis abilities, which brings him to Kaneda's attention as he ropes Tetsuo into his own schemes. Akira's Hollywood adaptation has had a troubled history Akira (1988) While there have been several ambitious attempts at getting an Akira Hollywood adaptation off the ground, none have truly taken off. After Warner Bros acquired the film rights to Akira in 2002, the studio hired several directors to work on the Akira adaptation, with none of them sticking around long enough to see the project to its completion. Stephen Norrington was the first director hired by Warner Bros, but he ultimately fell out of favor after his 2003 release The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen bombed both critically and commercially. Next came Ruari Robinson, who planned to split Akira into two films so that he could cover the entire manga's storyline. He would've changed the story's location to New York and prominently featured Asian-American characters, but he eventually departed the project in 2009. Next came the Hughes brothers, who aimed to market the film to a PG-13 audience, with them departing the project in 2011. Jaume Collet-Sera was assigned to direct the next iteration of the Akira film in October of that year, only to depart the project in 2017. Taika Waititi was the last director to attempt an Akira adaptation under the aegis of Warner Bros, with him being confirmed as a director in 2019. However, Waititi's involvement in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and other projects kept delaying the production until Warner Bros relinquished their rights to the IP altogether.

As captain and creative anchor, HONGJOONG elaborates, "For every comeback, we have a lot of discussions with each other and with our team. Everyone brings their own thoughts and ideas to the table, and we're not afraid to challenge one another. I think that's what makes our music stronger. The bold direction ATEEZ takes is really the result of that collective energy and trust."WEATHERING STORMS- BOTH ON AND OFF STAGEPerformance is core to ATEEZ's DNA. But sometimes, the best stories come from the most difficult stages."One of the most challenging but unforgettable performances for us was our New York concert at Citi Field last year," shares WOOYOUNG, main dancer and vocalist. "Because of the weather, there was a two-hour delay, and since we had to respect the curfew, we performed the entire setlist without any breaks. But the energy from both us and the fans was so strong that we didn't even feel the rain or exhaustion. It was a tough show, but one we'll never forget. We're so excited to return to Citi Field for this year's concert." ATEEZ members in a promotional poster for GOLDEN HOUR: Part 3. Credits: KQ Entertainment Their synergy? Not luck—just years of practice and patience. YEOSANG, a rapper, vocalist and performer, adds, "I think our synergy on stage comes from spending so much time together. Over the years, we've got to understand each other's movements, timing, and energy almost instinctively. But at the same time, it's something we're always working on. We constantly communicate, give feedback, and discuss how to make each performance better. There's a lot of consideration and teamwork involved."INSIDE ATEEZ'S MOOD BOARDAsked to visualise the group's energy in symbols, SEONGHWA, a key vocalist in the group, paints a vibrant picture: "If ATEEZ had a mood board right now, I think it would include fire, to show our passion, because we're always trying to pioneer our own path. And some splashes of color throughout. Those color splashes probably take up more of the mood board, standing in for at least two of the words, to represent the individuality and bold colors each member brings. Right now, our energy is about moving forward with confidence while staying true to who we are."[] Pre-save/add GOLDEN HOUR : Part.3 'In Your Fantasy Edition'!Pre-save ATEEZ's new album on your library!Pre-save/add : RELEASE 2025. 07. 11 1PM#ATEEZ ##GOLDENHOUR ATEEZ() (@ATEEZofficial) June 30, 2025advertisementPRE-SHOW RITUALSHow does a group known for powerful performances prep behind the scenes?"Before we go on stage, we don't really have a strict routine," says MINGI, main rapper and one of the creative anchors of the group.

Each of us just finds our own way to focus and get in the right mindset before the show. The goal is always the same, to go on stage feeling ready, give our best, and just enjoy performing."ATEEZ'S MANIFESTATION BOARDAs the world watches their rise, the members remain grounded and I could manifest one dream for ATEEZ in the next year, it would be to challenge ourselves musically even further," says JONGHO, the maknae of the group and main vocalist of the group.

Looking back, YEOSANG reflects on the memories that define them: "Looking back on our 6-year journey, I think the moments that define ATEEZ the most are when we're on stage with ATINY—whether it's a comeback stage, a fan-meeting, a festival, or one of our concerts.
