Thunderbolts director Jake Schreier talked about the movie's novel approach to making Marvel Cinematic Universe films.
Schreier brought up this characteristic of Thunderbolts while speaking to Collider, stating, "It was just a really different approach and a new kind of story to tell amidst that, which I know [Marvel Studios have] made so many things, but it's not a sequel. Yes, these characters have appeared before, but it is a new story being told and a story, I think, with a very different perspective than maybe people aren't expecting, and I think that that felt exciting and felt like a real challenge worth taking on."
