Marvel finally answers MCU mystery that's bugged us since Spider-Man: Homecoming

Finally, we have answers!

An age-old question has been troubling Marvel fans for millennia but now that illusive MCU question has been answered. Ok, I have exaggerated how long MCU fans have been asking the upcoming question, but you get my point.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one of the most popular movie franchises of all time and alongside the likes of Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings, it provides one of the most compelling and fun tales of good vs evil.

Check out the Thunderbolts* trailer below!

The first movie in the MCU was Iron Man in 2008 and kicked off what would eventually be known as the Infinity Saga which concluded with Avengers: Endgame in 2019 with the mad titan Thanos finally being defeated by Captain America, Scarlet Witch, Thor and friends.

Being exposed to many threats on Earth and beyond, the Avengers would lay out their plans in Avengers Tower, however, seeing as this was a massive skyscraper in the middle of Manhattan with a huge illuminated logo slapped on the side, it was an easy target for enemies.

As such, Tony Stark sold Avengers Tower in 2016, as revealed in Spider-Man: Homecoming and moved to the more remote location of the Avengers Compound in upstate New Work. Yet, that didn't work out too great either, because Thanos had blown that building to bits in Endgame resulting in the HQ being rebuilt.

With Avengers Tower still existing, many Marvel fans had been wondering who had acquired the building and some believe that it may have been purchased by King Pin but as seen in a recent Thunderbolts* trailer, that looks not to be the case.

Earlier this year, MCU head honcho Kevin Feige teased that we’ll soon know who purchased Avengers Tower and now we seemingly have that answer and it’s the Thunderbolts who in the comics are also known as the villainous Dark Avengers.

The Thunderbolts team in the MCU currently consists of the Red Guardian, Yelena Belova, Taskmaster, Ghost, Winter Soldier, The Sentry and the manipulative mastermind, Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.

“We are finally getting the Avengers Tower answer in Thunderbolts*’ Vals office?” exclaimed Redditor Its_Obvi_PShopped.

“It’s got to be either a nod to the comics where the Thunderbolts get the Fantastic Four’s tower when they are presumed dead or they really are doing Dark Avengers after this,” replied RFB-CACN.

“They're really going for the evil Avenger's vibe, the trailer has me STOKED,” said a very happy tHe_verdant_400 with mongmich2 adding, “I think that’s what a lot of people are expecting. Especially since the Thunderbolts are confirmed to be in the next Avengers movie.”

“I bet Norman Osborne bought it and they're working together,” suggests markartman to which NicktheRichard replied, “I came here to say this, is there a chance that it is Oscorp Tower?”

Thunderbolts* arrives in cinemas on 2 May 2025.
