Beef Is Part of Thunderbolts? Creator Reveals How Steven Yeun Starrer Inspired Lewis Pullman’s Story

by

The film “Thunderbolts” by Marvel Studios is a massive success. Despite this, director Jake Schreier has pondered if his earlier project, titled “Beef,” may have had some influence on the movie.

In case you’re unaware, Jake Schreier held positions as an Executive Producer and in-house director for Lee Sung Jin’s (also known as Sonny Lee) series titled Beef in 2023. This show was highly acclaimed when it premiered on television. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the creator had actually proposed Thunderbolts* before he began working on Beef. Yet, he had already planned to employ the same thematic approach in the film.

As our guiding compass was Beef, I firmly felt that we had a unique chance to delve into its inner depths while maintaining a dose of humor and excitement. The goal was to create something that resonates on a grand, relatable scale.

In conversation with the outlet recently, he further explained that Sonny had initially proposed abandoning such stories as a specialty. “Although it might seem unusual for a summer blockbuster to revolve around this concept, it’s possible and it can be logical,” Jake Schreier continued.

Through his foresight, fans of superhero teams were treated to an ensemble comprising loners and outcasts from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The upcoming film, Thunderbolts, features Florence Pugh portraying Yelena Belova, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes (aka the Winter Soldier), and David Harbour as the Red Guardian.
