What are the facts?: The viral clip has been altered. The original one showed actor Sebastian Stan replacing Thunderbolts poster with one that said The New Avengers.

How did we find that out?: Using the help of Google Lens, we conducted a reverse image search and found the same visuals published on an Instagram handle named 'bonacinemas'.

  • It was uploaded on 7 May and its caption said, "#TheNewAvengers , but still #FilmedForIMAX experience #Thunderbolts* in #IMAX now!."

  • The clip showed Stan replacing a movie poster with another one that said The New Avengers.

  • We went through the official X handle of Marvel Studios and found the same video uploaded on 5 May.

  • The visuals made it clear that the viral clip had been edited to add references to the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor.

News reports: A report published by Deadline said that the actor was spotted replacing a poster for the latest Marvel film. Stan, who plays a character named 'Bucky' in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), was dressed in black from head to tie like his character.

The report was published on 5 May 2025.
