Invincible star Steven Yeun says the turnout of recent events in Hollywood was one of the reasons why he left Thunderbolts, but the actor asserted that he still wants to do a Marvel movie.Yeun cites last year’s SAG-AFTRA strikes as the main reason why he left Marvel’s Thunderbolts. In an interview with Variety, the actor explains how the strike’s impact on upcoming and ongoing Hollywood projects also influenced his priorities. “I think for me, time passing and things shifting kind of pulled me out of it,” he said, addressing any speculation as to why he dropped out of the project. Yeun’s casting was previously confirmed after The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman unofficially revealed he would play Thunderbolts’ Sentry.Production for Thunderbolts halted in May due to the WGA strike, as is the case with any ongoing projects. The situation came to a head when SAG-AFTRA joined the picket lines in July and persisted until November, one month after the WGA ended its strike. Aside from Marvel’s Thunderbolts, the delays likely stalled progress for Yeun’s other commitments, and the end of the strike only caused scheduling conflicts when production resumed for these projects. Thunderbolts has yet to start filming since the SAG-AFTRA ratified its new contract with the AMPTP in December.
