Spider-man: No Way Home Led To A Big Change For How The Sentry Was Portrayed In Thunderbolts*

The comic book version of The Sentry has a complicated past. He debuted in 2000's Sentry #1 by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee, and the danger posed by The Void—both in the past and present—led to Robert Reynolds having to make the world forget he existed...twice.
The character eventually returned in the pages of Brian Michael Bendis' New Avengers, only for The Void to once again rear its ugly head (leaving Thor with no other choice than to kill the Golden Guardian during Siege).
Thunderbolts* director Jake Schreier and actor Lewis Pullman turned to those early Sentry comics for inspiration, but there was one element the filmmaker knew wouldn't be a good fit for The Sentry's MCU debut.
"Obviously, we couldn’t tell that same story because of Spider-Man: No Way Home," he told Marvel.com of the notion that the world might have forgotten about The Sentry's existence.
