As for Thunderbolts, Harbour praises Marvel’s casting choices, which also includes the returns of Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine and Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, with Harbour as Red Guardian, Wyatt Russell as John Walker, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, Olga Kurylenko as Taskmaster, and Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier. Jake Schreier will direct the upcoming project, which is currently in pre-production.

Harbour says to the outlet, “There’s a lot of really exciting work happening on this movie.” The Stranger Things star continues, “I also think it’s a unique MCU movie in the sense that you’ve got a bunch of misfits and outcasts and losers and people who don’t really live up to the super in superhero. And also all of us are such cool, interesting performers, I think audiences have some complicated feelings about a lot of us, and I think that’s a terrific thing going in.”
