How to watch Thunderbolts* in the UK – is it streaming?
We finally have an official Disney Plus release date!
New Marvel film Thunderbolts* has proved a hit with fans and critics since its release in cinemas back in May, with RadioTimes.com's own review giving it four stars.
The movie sees Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan and David Harbour reprising their MCU roles, forming a ragtag crew of superheroes who are tasked with fighting off superhuman threats while dealing with their own personal battles.
With the film featuring such a stacked cast, as well as a much-talked-about post-credit scene providing some big revelations about the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you might be wondering when it's set to land on Disney Plus.
A few days after release, the film was also officially given an alternative title – The New Avengers – which both explained why there had been an asterisk in the original name and also helped set things up for subsequent MCU films.
So, if you’re waiting to get a glimpse at the newest Avengers from the comfort of your own home, read on for all the latest Thunderbolts* streaming options.
Where to watch Thunderbolts* in the UK on digital
Thunderbolts* is available to stream now on Disney Plus.
The film might have proved a hit amongst critics and fans alike following its theatrical release, but it certainly had a less-than-stellar performance at the box office.
However, with the film now available to stream, it no doubt looks set to reach a much bigger audience.
Thunderbolts* is also available to buy now on digital platforms including Prime Video, Sky Store, Apple TV and Google TV. Since 1st July, it has been available to rent or buy at home.

The Blu-ray and 4K releases are available to purchase now.
