Avengers: Infinity War
We still have some await to do before the Russo brothers unleash their gigantic two movie conclusion ( and Modern beginning ) to the ever - expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe with 2018’sAvengers : Infinity Warand 2019’suntitled sequel . Filmed solely in expansive IMAX , Avengers : Infinity Warpromises the turgid superhero cast ever assembled , with a whopping 67 characters sharing screen - sentence , including the long - awaited ( now confirmed ) crossover between theAvengersand theGuardians of the Galaxy .
A two year postponement wo n’t stop us from drool at the myriad of potential case we ’ll see in the Russo’sAvengers : Infinity Waropus , which will also pit our heroes against the mighty Thanos , and his gantlet contain the awing power of the united Infinity Stones . With the conclusive nature of this account and the fact that a crew of declaration for MCU favourite such asChris Evansand Chris Hemsworth will breathe out soon ( and Robert Downey Jr. negotiates one cinema at a prison term ) , it looks increasingly probable that many of our beloved heroes wo n’t make it to the other side ofAvengers : Infinity Waralive . With this sad likelihood in mind , the MCU will need smart blood to fill the ranks of the Avengers , and protect us from threats based on Earth , in space , or from the world of the supernatural .
Here are the15 Marvel Characters Who Definitely Wo n’t Die InAvengers : Infinity War
Hulk
As we already have a go at it , Mark Ruffalo ’s Jade Giant is dress to have a pivotal confirm persona in next year’sThor : Ragnarok . When first announced , Marvel Studios foreman Kevin Feige insisted thatRagnarokplays as important a role to the overall Phase 3 taradiddle asCaptain America : The Winter Soldierdid for Phase 2 . What did he entail by that ? WillRagnarokandInfinity Warprovide enough time to wrap up Hulk / Bruce Banner ’s taradiddle , considering he ’s only had reasonably limit screen time in the MCU so far ? We would n’t bet on it .
IfThor : Ragnarokis incorporating some constituent of the classicPlanet Hulkstoryline , where an exiled Hulk combat in gladiatorial combat and finally becomes rule of the planet Sakaar , is it too much of a reach to trust that Marvel would desire to adapt the equally beloved arcWorld War Hulkfor Phase 4 ? Who would n’t need to see a maddened King Hulk and and his intergalactic USA endeavor to conquer the Earth ?
Sharon Carter
Emily Van Camp ’s former S.H.I.E.L.D. and current C.I.A. agent Sharon Carter has lastly pace out of the shadow of her legendary peachy auntie Peggy Carter . She was most recently seen as both a worthful friend and brand new passion interest for Steve Rogers , AKA Captain America , inCivil War . With Peggy sadly now at eternal sleep , Sharon will likely have a far boom role in the MCU from Phase 4 onward as one of the few hoi polloi intimately close to Captain Steve .
As one of the few major non - powered ( but still tough as nails ) participant in the Marvel cinematic universe , Sharon has the potency to grind the viewer in realism , and appropriate us to see many of the superpowered theatrical role of the MCU from a more human linear perspective . Also , if Cap does n’t make it out ofInfinity Waralive perhaps Sharon could be a left-hand - field competition to take up his mantle ?
Falcon
With Chris Evan ’s Captain America contract almost at its destruction , the superstar - spangle Avenger has never seemed so deathly . His number may very well be up by the timeAvengers : Infinity Warreaches its epic conclusion . Those familiar with comical book traditional knowledge already experience that Sam Wilson , AKA the Falcon , has recently been among the small number of Steve ’s allies to have wield the shell in his absence seizure . Whether or not Falcon picks up the shield , worker Anthony Mackie ’s in force humour spell will really help fill the vacancy that Robert Downey Jr. could forget should he opt not to recall as Tony Stark / Iron Man .
The Falcon now cement his status as a good acquaintance and equal to Steve Rogers inCaptain America : The Winter Soldier , and his brusque , but sweet appearance inAnt - Manthreatened to steal the show . His role further was expanded inCivil War , as did the flight marvel ’s tech– with the addition of his robotic dawdler Redwing to his already telling fly harness .
The Winter Soldier
The most likely replacement for a deceased or out - of - charge Steve Rogers would be his life - farsighted comrade / one - time brainwashed enemy Bucky Barnes , AKA The Winter Soldier . Comic book aficionado will be aware of Greg Rucka ’s epic test ofCaptain Americaissues , where Bucky filled in as Cap , while Steve was ( temporarily ) deceased at the hands of Crossbones . What easily redemptive arc for Steve Rogers ’s childhood acquaintance than continuing his good work as the novel Captain America after causing so much impairment over the twelvemonth as the unpitying Winter Soldier ?
Anyone who ’s hitch up with the MCU will have sex that Bucky is currently cryogenically freeze in Wakanda , but even if Cap should rest in the land of the living post - Infinity War , Sebastian Stan ’s nine film contract guarantee that the Winter Soldier will continue a staple fiber of the Avengers and the MCU for many years to make out , no matter what name he may adopt .
Ant-Man
After a memorably troubled growing period , Ant - Manfinally hit the screens as the only fresh solo franchise in the Phase 2 Marvel line - up . Despite not quite hitting the blockbuster height ofGuardians of the Galaxy($519 vs $ 773 million in universal box office),Ant - Manwas well enough have by critics and audience to justify a quickly green - lit sequel , the upcomingAnt - Man and the Wasp . Marvel were correct in keeping the trust with Paul Rudd ’s very comic take on former jail skirt - turned - shrinking crusader Scott Lang , as he is undoubtedly the MCU ’s funniest hero and arguably provide the otherwise seriousCivil Warwith its biggest jest as the awesome Giant - Man .
AfterInfinity Warcould the normally irresponsible Scott Lang take in a leading persona within the ranks of the Avengers ? As one of the comedian ’s original members you’re able to require him to stay on the team for Phase 4 and beyond , should Cap , Iron Man , and Thor become either dead , retired , or M.I.A.
Rocket Raccoon
The surly Rocket Raccoon is simply too cute to choke . If that is n’t excuse enough , there are just far too many reasons to keep him around as a core component of the MCU for the foreseeable future . It ’s already been show by James Gunn thatGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2is mostly Peter Quill ’s tarradiddle , and thatGuardians Vol . 3likely wo n’t make it until sometime in Phase 4 . A outstanding report to potentially explore in aGuardiansthree - quel would be Rocket ’s tragic origin and the vile experiment he was subjected to .
There ’s still so much to discover about Rocket and his life story prior to join hisGuardians of the Galaxyteammates . In Phase 4 , it ’s lead to be so much fun watch the Bradley Cooper - voiced Rocket interact with the population of the MCU . We ’d love to see an out - and - out comedy motion-picture show about Rocket Raccoon and Groot , maybe even set on Earth . Is a buddy comedy with Seth Green ’s Howard the Duck totally out of the interrogation ?
Groot
For starter motor , Groot has already " go " , in the massively emotional finale ofGuardians of the Galaxy . Of course , he quickly regrew into the little Baby Groot we ’re start to quickly learn to have a go at it in next year’sGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2 . As with his compadre Rocket Raccoon , there ’s simply too much of his report that has n’t yet been explored in the MCU .
Is the loveable Groot the only one of his species ? How does his simplistic , yet expressive voice communication study ? What is the dependable nature of his origin and what is the extent of his power ? Will the resurrected version of Groot maturate back into the original version of the Vin Diesel - vocalise character ? We ’ll belike find out at least some of the answers in Phase 4 ! But in the meantime , just like with Rocket , there is far too much comedy gold to be mined from Groot interacting with other establish Marvel hero for him to perish inInfinity War .
The Wasp
Evangeline Lilly had good deal of clock time to shine as Hope Van Dyne in 2015 ’s large hitAnt - Man , but regrettably she has yet to appear as her alter - ego , The Wasp . Michael Douglas ' Hank Pym finally entrust his wife Janet ’s Wasp suit of clothes to his daughter Hope in the mid - reference ofAnt - Man , but we in all likelihood wo n’t see her in costume until 2018 ’s already announcedAnt - Man and the Wasp . Lilly ’s wondrous romantic and comedic interpersonal chemistry with Paul Rudd , and the Wasp ’s position as one of the comic ’s original Avengers member makes her a potential raw material of the new Avengers team , post - Infinity War .
As seen in Peyton Reed’sAnt - Man , Hope is a skilled martial artist and instructor , so there ’s a secure probability she could take on a wise man / jitney role within the new team . Besides , Hope , Scott , and Hank still necessitate to rescue Janet Van Dyne from the terrifyingly heroic quantum realm where she is trapped .
Gamora
Well , considering the fact that James Gunn has already confirm that neither Thanos nor the Infinity Stones will make an appearance inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2 , we would n’t be surprised if the Mad Titan makes his front felt in a significant path inThor : Ragnarok . It ’s safe to assume then that Thanos ’s adopted girl Gamora ( Zoe Saldana ) and Nebula ( Karen Gillan ) wo n’t add up face - to - side with their estranged father until some full point duringAvengers : Infinity War .
study that Thanos murdered Gamora ’s real family , it is n’t a stretching to hypothecate that it could be Gamora who finally slays the insane titan for revenge or at least puts a halt to his reign of holy terror . turn into one of the galaxy ’s most feared and severe assassins against her will , Gamora has a very personal grudge against her unwanted foster pop and we ’d love to see a well-chosen , more carefree Gamora in the inevitableGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 .
Star-Lord
Simply put : without Peter Quill , there is noGuardians of the Galaxy . Chris Pratt is wax the highest echelons of Hollywood royalty after the surprise success of 2014’sGuardiansand the record destroying hitJurassic Worldin 2015 . It ’s pretty dependable to adopt that Marvel want to keep him as the magnetic facial expression of one of its freshest and most important franchises for as long as potential .
As much as we roll in the hay the entireGuardians of the Galaxycast , the endearing shirker ( and token Earthling ) Peter Quill has big overall tarradiddle to adjudicate . Would Gunn really bring out his Father-God , Ego the Living Planet , inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2only for the Russos to kill Quill off inInfinity War ? Highly doubtful . We ’d be intimate to see him back home on Earth for a spell , wrestling with non-’80s technical school and discovering new tunes for the inevitableAwesome Mix Vol . 3 .
