Thunderbolts* performed well with fans and critics, but seems to have struggled at the box office. That's a shame, as it's a hugely entertaining film, one which we said "brings to mind the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie, although this is still its own beast" in our own Thunderbolts* review.
Perhaps some fans have been waiting to watch the movie from the comfort of their own home? If so, then we have some good news for you. With the film already available to rent and buy on digital, we now also have an official streaming release date.
