The MCU may just have more up its sleeve in Thunderbolts* than fans initially thought.

Also adding to the intrigue is that Viswanathan is portraying a mysterious character named Mel (perMarvel Studios).

Songbird’s real name is Melissa Gold, which “Mel” could very likely be a nickname for.

That voice can also influence other people’s emotions.
