A movie with a group of actors that might lack a leading actor is a great thing. We have had some great ones this year.

2025 EYG The Avengers: Endgame Ensemble Cast of the Year Award

Thunderbolts*

Marvel Studios’ new film Thunderbolts (aka New Avengers) was such a great movie and it was because this group of low level characters were such a sensational group together. The film worked story wise is because of this ensemble.

The ensemble included  Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, Olga Kurylenko, Lewis Pullman, Geraldine Viswanathan, Chris Bauer, Wendell Pierce, David Harbour, Hannah John-Kamen, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

The movie was emotional and the performances were fantastic. The film did not make as much money as you would want. There are a lot of reasons, but they were not a really well known group of characters. Still, as an MCU fan, I loved this film and the cast was the main reason.
