The Cast of 'Thunderbolts*' & Their Adorable Dogs

Marvel fans rejoice! Thunderbolts* is officially in theaters! I, personally, really enjoyed the movie. I laughed, cried, and jotted down a reminder to make an appointment with a therapist, so I don’t turn into the Void, aka Shadow Bob. 

In the celebration of the latest installment of the MCU, we thought we’d spotlight the film’s stars and their furry friends.

Florence Pugh 

Florence Pugh, who plays Yelena Belova, adopted a rescue dog named Billie with her now ex-boyfriend, Zach Braff, in 2020. The Scrubs star announced that he became the dog’s pup parent on Instagram in April 2020. In the caption of the post, Braff shared that they intended on just fostering the pup.

“Officially adopted, Billie. Thanks to the @thelabellefoundation .We tried to foster, but then we fell in love.#fosterfail #adoptdontshop,” wrote Braff. 

Pugh recently uploaded a picture of her furry friend in a May 2025 Instagram post.
