The MCU is getting meaty as it brings in 'BEEF' creator Lee Sung Jin to tackle 'Thunderbolts' rewrites.
During the San Diego Comic-Con last year, Marvel announced that the studio had plans in the pipeline for the development of Thunderbolts. In the months that followed, the cast and creative arms of the project have consistently grown with the addition of the likes of Ayo Edebiri coming aboard, whose role is still undisclosed. The Marvel movie will be helmed by director Jake Schreier and now, there is a new addition to the movie's creative team.
Jin's attachment to the project serves as a reunion between the writer and director Schreier after the pair collaborated on Beef. While speaking in an interview for the promotion of Beef with Variety, the writer revealed that Schreier had requested he joined the team, while also stating what exactly he'd be doing. “I’m rewriting it,” Lee says. “It’s the whole squad again. Jake asked me if I would come on board.

One, it’s not my project, it’s Jake’s. It’s such a large scope and scale that the type of writing is very different. At the same time, the process feels the same, I’m still talking to Jake every day.
Thunderbolts will hit theaters on July 26, 2024. You can check out our interview with David Harbour who'll be reprising his role as the Red Guardian in the upcoming Marvel flick.
