Avengers: Infinity War
phase angle 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is coming to a head , which can imply only one thing : anotherAvengersmovie is on the horizon . On May 4 , 2018 , the cosmos will jar when the Mad Titan Thanos decide to pick a scrap with Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes , and audiences can expect one hell of a cataclysmic roughhouse .
Marvel Studios has been put down the substructure ever sinceIron Manin 2008 , and the first twoAvengersfilms ( as well as all the other interconnecting MCU films ) have dot in all the component for the battle royale to terminate all engagement royales — a conflict that essentially gives anyone who is n’t Thanos a streak for their money .
Though he ’s only been seen in glimpse on screen ( part of post - credit stinger , a abbreviated fit in the firstGuardians of the Galaxy ) , Thanos is a major instrumentalist in theAvengersuniverse . He is the blue tail looming over every individual debut within the series . And inAvengers : Infinity War , audiences will finally get a chance to see exactly what form of punch this purple spunk can compact .
The combat against Thanos will require even stronger resource than the Avengers are used to supplying , but who exactly will be showing up , and what sort of role will they at long last take on once the fighting hold up down ?

Valkyrie
Valkyrie made her cinematic debut inThor : Ragnarok . She ’s been call the"Han Solo of the MCU"on invoice of her dickens - may - tutelage demeanour , and not unlike Harrison Ford ’s beloved fiber in theStar Warsuniverse , Valkyrie was received warmly by audience and critic likewise .
By the end ofRagnarok , she ’s flee shotgun with Thor and co. , only to total face - to - expression with what is presumablyThanos ' personal vessel .
InInfinity War , Valkyrie will doubtless be sweep into Thanos ' outer space drama just by way of happenstance ( she ’s in the amiss place at the wrong time ) . In the comics , Valkyrie and Thanos never do engagement against each other , but her persona in upcoming films might be quite strong .
Various theory suggest thatValkyrie may very well replace Thor as the MCU ’s main Asgardian heropost - Infinity War , though it ’s impossible to support at this point in time .
Captain America
Steve Rogers never backs down from a fight , so it ’s scarcely disgraceful that he ’d be become up once again in the thirdAvengersfilm . That said , given his rogue position at the end ofCaptainAmerica : Civil War , it ’s dependable to say that his role will be significantly remove from what interview are used to with Marvel ’s First Avenger .
When Rogers returns inInfinity War , he’ll have pretty much formally toss his former nom de plume as Captain America . He ’s plainly still very much in the business of contend against evil , but his approach will have been modified .
In the strip , he follows a exchangeable journey after losing faith in the Establishment , thus donning the new assumed name Nomad . If the name is n’t ever used in the moving picture , the passing of his cuticle might be a more forcible representation of this change . That said , to keep thing round-eyed , he might also just strip " America " from his name and plainly go with The Captain , which is another move he makes in the cartoon strip .
Also , he has a face fungus now .
Black Panther (and friends)
Black Pantherhasn’t attain theaters yet , but be inclined to see some of its most polar character show up inInfinity War . Audiences first run across the Wakandan prince ( now king ) inCaptain America : Civil War , but they only saw the pourboire of the iceberg . In his standalone film , King T’Challa is forced to do struggle with local enemy threatening to bring about global destruction .
It ’s impossible to say how the movie will end , but there are some upstanding indicators pointing to how T’Challa will at least effortlessly segue into the thirdAvengersflick . Thanos ' journey has been a unappeasable William Holman Hunt for the Infinity Stones . That much is obvious . Whatisn’tobvious , however , is where exactly all of these Infinity Stones are located . Some have been discovered already , but the one stone that still stay on a mystery is the Soul Stone .
The puzzle is just about gross , but the net piece is missing . feign the motion-picture show want to make the find prior toInfinity War , thenchances are probable that the last stone will be reveal inBlack Panther . There ’s no way of life to prove this , but it ’s definitely worth considering .
Iron Man
What would anAvengersmovie be without the man who show in the MCU himself ? Tony Stark has been an unsubduable force in the serial ( either in or out of the Iron Man suit ) , but his journey intoInfinity Warwill ultimately be a sorry one .
InAge of Ultron , Stark has a distressing vision of things to come . In short , it revolved around death ( specifically the death of the Avengers ) , and ever since , Stark has been a chip restive . His formerly sarcastic ego has taken a sort of backseat to his anxiousness , which ended up contact a stewing item inCaptain America : Civil War . ByInfinity War , Stark wo n’t be pulling any lick ( physically or figuratively ) .
He may have found at leastsomecatharsis by the terminal of theCivil War , and then afterwards inSpider - Man : Homecoming , but that remains to be seen . Chances are likely that Stark will be more willing than any of the other Avengers to give himself for the enceinte good .
In the comics , Tony has in reality wielded the Infinity Gauntlet - only time will tell if he attain such heights inInfinity War .
Thor
Not counting the mid or post - credit cut , the last line inThor : Ragnarokis , " Earth it is , " referring to where the ship on which Thor , his squad , and every stay Asgardian is headed . So , regardless of any plot complication that follow ( and the ramification that follows is a whacker ) , Thor had his eyes set on Earth from the get - go , ultimately repay him to the company of his avenging counterparts .
unluckily , Thor end up running into a problem ( a problem that may as well be a prequel toInfinity War ) . So , assuming Thanos is successful , Thor may very well portion out some screenland clock time with the Mad Titan by the time the thirdAvengersflick is set into motion . How he ’ll free himself is anyone ’s guesswork , but seeing as he ’s got a solid gang by his side , the God of Thunder has a hearty shot of stand up his ground ( until the eternal rest of the Avengers issue forth to his care at the very least ) .
The Thor involve in theInfinity Gauntletstoryline in the comedian is a different someone solely - Eric Masterson .
Ant-Man
you’re able to indicate that Scott Lang ( a.k.a . Ant - Man ) remain firm the small luck against Thanos , but do n’t be betray . Though he may not be quite as practiced in the art of alien - fighting as the other Avengers are , Lang has proven his ability to stand his own ground . ( Hell , if the hombre wants to shrink down small enough to fit inside Thanos ' capitulum so that he can jab the guy rope in the brain , it ’s totally an selection . )
That debatable unlikelihood aside , it ’s unclear what sort of theatrical role Lang will play inInfinity War , but whatever it is , it wo n’t be a fateful one . The sequelAnt - Man and the Waspwill be free two month after the release ofInfinity War , intend that Ant - Man enthusiasts need n’t fear . Whether the events between the two films are link up is anyone ’s speculation at this point .
Loki
Loki ’s a good guy at the ending ofThor : Ragnarok , right ? Well , assume that the cat has only ever aspired to take whatever side benefits him like a shot . give way the fact that he slip the Tesseract from Odin ’s Vault either prior to or take after the kindling of Surtur ’s diadem with the Eternal Flame , Thanos and his Black Order are inevitably on his tail ( which is essentially sustain in the mid - credit entry sting ) . So , yet again , due to Loki ’s selfish appetite for ability , he runs the risk of aim those close to him kill .
This will set the level for thing to come inInfinity War , give Thanos the next-to-last piece to his puzzle . And with Loki already not in the best office with Thanos following the events ofThe Avengersto set out with , the betting odds are scarcely in his favor . Thanos may have no choice but to jimmy the pit from Loki ’s inhuman , drained finger ( assume Loki does n’t wilfully give it up and simply change alliances yet again ) .
Bucky Barnes
Bucky Barnes ( a.k.a . The Winter Soldier ) wo n’t appear inBlack Panther , despite the fact that Barnes was last seen in Wakanda undergoing indefinite stasis . It ’s safe to say that he ’ll remain in this state for the intact distance of the film , but debate the fact that hedoesshow up inInfinity War , it stands to reason that Barnes might earn himself his very own post - credit confidence game ( though not his first ) .
Will he be ignite up voluntarily ? By stroke ? It ’s impossible to make love for sure this far along , but his connection toBlack Pantheris undeniable .
That said , wherever he ends up afterBlack Pantherand anterior toInfinity War , Tony Stark ’s anger towards him is most in all probability go to be still very palpable — give what he ( involuntarily ) did to Stark ’s parent .
Black Widow
Not unlike Steve Rogers and the respite of his regulation - breaking cohorts , Natasha Romanoff ’s Black Widow is wanted by office . She broke the law inCaptain America : Civil War , and as a result must pay the issue . gratefully , though , seeing as she ’s one of the superlative spies on the major planet , sidestep gaining control is her speciality . And allot to her new look inInfinity War , she appears to have undergone some strong-arm alterations in lodge to keep her identity obscure .
In the officialAvengers : Infinity Warposter , Romanoff is rocking blonde locks . So , whether or not she ’s joined some sort of underground faction alongside Cap ' n Crew , Black Widow may not be in the good of situations come the first chapter ofInfinity War . There ’s no doubt that this movie will be a ware result , and Black Widow ’s hairsbreadth ( curiously enough ) represents some forcible validation of that .
Falcon
At the end ofCaptain America : Civil War , Sam Wilson ( a.k.a . Falcon ) is rescued by his pal Steve Rogers , but it ’s unreadable where the two of them — as well as Clint , Wanda , and Scott — are headed . Judging by Cap ’s letter of the alphabet to the Stark , they ’re run to bear on fight the good conflict ( whatever exactly that might imply ) .
As far as what he ’ll really bring to the tabular array , it is likely more physical than anything else . OnThe Late Show with Stephen Colbert , actor Anthony Mackie , who dally Falcon , explain that he ’ll " kick a lot of ass " inInfinity War . Whose nooky said kicking will include remains to be seen , but it ’s fair to assume that some might belong to the Black Order .
