Avengers 4: Release date, casting, plot and title rumors

At the end of Avengers: Infinity War, the promised credits "Thanos will come back". But while Josh Brolin's villainous villain will be back in Avengers 4 in 2019, who else will do it? If you've seen Infinity War ( and many of you now have ), you know it's a bit of a mystery. Here are the spoilers!

In his quest to balance the universe, Thanos acquired all the stones of the infinite and zapped half the population of the universe, as he threatened. Most of the Marvel's major heroes were part of the missing half of the population who somehow turned into a pile of sand that then flew away.

The Avengers 4 therefore have a major situation: all these heroes who earn money have left for good. But some of them probably have to bite the dust for dramatic reasons (and because some actors have spoken publicly about moving on ). We will have to wait to see exactly who is taking early retirement, but for now, we can summarize what we know.

At a special event on October 25, the president of Marvel Studios confirmed Kevin Feige . that we will see a trailer of Avengers 4 before 2019 . Of course, this does not necessarily mean that we will have a title if we want to believe the recent publications on Reddit, but corresponds to what we expect from the chronology of the MCU .

What is the title of the Infinity War sequel?

The film is still called Avengers 4 or Untitled Movie Avengers. And there may be a particular reason why the title is protected. When a fan on Twitter said he was scared of the title because he spoiled Infinity War, directors Joe and Anthony Russo were wrong to say that fans are right to panic.

The first badumption we heard about the title was Infinity Gauntlet. , which would indicate that Thanos acquired all the magic stones of infinity in Infinity War. But it is amusing to speculate on a more creative option: "Avengers 4: The Black Panther Vanishes Forever" ( does not occur ). "Gee, the world is really less crowded these days, maybe Thanos was right"? "Avengers: Some of us were left after the kidnapping"? The possibilities are as endless as the stones.

Ready for another title rumor? In late June-early July 2018, fans began to speculate that the film will be called Avengers: End Game. The Omega Underground website has found this title on the site of the Avengers filmmaker, Trent Opaloch. After the supposed title was reported, it was changed to Avengers 4 on the Opaloch site. To become really geeky about this, it's worth noting that the EG initials as in End Game are only alphabetically a letter removed from the FH rumor that was circulating earlier. If the next rumor claims that the title of the movie is Avengers: D__ F___, we will know that someone is having fun with us. (Avengers: Dead Forever? Avengers: No more deceiving? Avengers: Zut Funky? The latter should have a soundtrack from the late Prince .)

And in September 2018, a user of Reddit presumed that the film will call Avengers: Eternity War, a kind of parallel to Infinity War. Because the movie is supposed to involve a trip back in time, eternity could be an appropriate word choice because it refers to all the time. But are the two titles too similar? We will have to wait and see.

All of this comes after news began to circulate in early June 2018 about the quite possible title Fallen Heroes . It's according to a Reddit user, but I mean, it's on the Internet, so you know that's true, right?

When will Avengers 4 come out?

Officially, Avengers 4 is expected to be released on May 3, 2019 in the United States and April 26 in the UK, with no release date in Australia. But remember: Avengers: Infinity War was scheduled for May 2018, then Marvel moved it for a week for a global release in late April. Maybe everything will be free in late April-early May 2019, just in case.

At the end of July 2018, rumors circulated that the release date of the film had been advanced. CBR notes that the quarterly report of IMAX indicates the release date of the film in April and not in May. Although Disney and IMAX did not immediately respond to a request for comment, this would correspond to the calendar of last year.

The film was shot as a result of Infinity War from the month of August. 2017 and with the main shoot ending in January 2018. Filming took place in the Atlanta area. According to the Scottish newspaper The Daily Record, other scenes will be shot in Edinburgh and Glasgow, Scotland, in July 2018.

This film is the fourth in a series. If you want to watch the previous three Avengers movies, check out the 2012 Avengers, of 2015, Avengers: Age of Ultron and the new of 2018, Avengers: Infinity War . Made with that? There are many other Marvel movies to watch to infuse stories of different heroes. Here is our suggested order to look at them.

And what about the trailer? In September 2018, MCU Cosmic suggested that since the first teaser for Avengers: Infinity War was released late November 2017 for the release of a movie in late April, Avengers 4 could follow the same pattern. Of course, there is no confirmation about this – it's just an educated guess. But if that's true, it could mean an upcoming trailer the week after Thanksgiving, something to be thankful for.

What we know about the plot

Well, Thanos will be back – the credits promised.He seemed quite satisfied with his balance of the universe, seen for the last time in a nipa hut (the scene was shot at Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines), so it looks like the remaining Avengers will have to fight.

Some people think we could look to has a comic version of this story to understand how things might unfold, but there are still gaps between comics and movies. Do not expect an exact copy. Nevertheless, if things go this way, expect major roles for Nebula (Karen Gillan) and Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch). Do not forget, Strange made a strange decision in Infinity War, handing over the stone of the time that he had always promised to protect. Is it because it was necessary for the scenario in which he saw our heroes win? He probably has the best idea of ​​what will happen.

Have you remembered to stay at your place after the end of Infinity War to watch the post-credit scene? We decompose it here, but it seems that Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) has successfully sent a message to Captain Marvel, based on the symbol on what looks like the pager of Fury. Brie Larson will play Captain Marvel in a March 2019 solo film and as he only remains a month or two before Avengers 4, he is expected to create ground points.

In May 2018, ComicBook.com found a supposed synopsis for Avengers 4 in Global License. It seems to have been translated from Italian, the original language of the magazine, and it does not disclose huge spoilers, but it's fun to read. "The culmination of 22 interconnected films, the fourth installment of the Avengers saga will take the audience to witness the turn of this epic journey," says the summary. "Our well-understood heroes will really understand how fragile this reality is and the sacrifices that must be made to maintain it." Of course, that does not say exactly what these sacrifices will be, but we have ideas.

In June 2018, Chris Hemsworth, who plays Thor, told Esquire that Avengers 4 was "even more shocking" than Avengers: Infinity War. Although it revealed no spoilers, the god of thunder said the film was another step forward in the series. "Every step we seem to make with these films, I loved the fact that there has been growth and evolution and that it continues to surprise people," he said.

If Mark Ruffalo, who plays the role of Bruce Banner / Hulk, has something to say about it, both sides of his character will somehow fight. In the Marvelists podcast in September 2018, he said: "I've always thought that it would be great to see them in some kind of subspace where they will be able to fight with Banner's brains as that kind of his own superpower, like a weapon or a psychological psi armament against the brute force of Hulk. "

Who will be dead to stay?

Here is a list of those who disappeared, in the manner of a melted sand, thanks to the elimination of half of the population by Thanos:

• Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) [19659032] Drax (Dave Bautista)
• Groot (Diesel Wine) [19659033] Mantis (Pom Klementieff)
• Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen)
• Spider-Man (Tom Holland)
• Peter Quill (Chris Pratt)
• Dr. Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch)
• Black Panther (Chadwick) Boseman)
• Falcon (Anthony Mackie)

Remains to fight another day (to our knowledge – we have not seen these heroes disappear) are:

• Captain America (Chris Evans)
• Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.)
• Thor (Chris Hemsworth)
• Hulk (Mark Ruffalo)
• M & # 39; Baku (Winston Duke)
• Okoye (Danai Gurira)
• Rocket (Bradley Cooper) [19659033] War Machine (Don Cheadle)
• Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson)
• Nebula (Karen Gillan)

Missing heroes are likely to return, at least for a time. Marvel would not want to keep them all dead as soon as a trainee feeds a hundred dollar bills in a shredder: too much money to lose.

We all know that we will be back – Black Panther and the Guardians of the galaxy have planned new movies, so that T & # 39; Challa and Star-Lord do not go anywhere, but all Wakandans and Guardians can not do it. Dave Bautista, who plays Guardian Drax the Destroyer, told Den of Geek that he would return for Avengers 4 and Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3, although he confirmed he did not know how Drax would be back. (So, technically, he could still die and be seen in a flashback.) And he confirmed it again in September 2018 in the British TV show Good Morning, in Britain, claiming that he felt a little guilty of having shared, but that no one told me not to do it. say anything. "

The future might not be as promising for the big three: Captain America, Iron Man and Thor." Chris Evans said he was moving on to something else after this film but Downey and Hemsworth have also hinted, but we will not know until we know, and besides, Marvel is famous for restarting dead / frozen / hung characters in the uniform.

Many fans saw a possible spoiler on Oct. 4, when Chris Evans, who plays Captain America, tweeted that he had finished his work on the film and went on to say that playing that role during The last eight years have been "an honor." This certainly sounded for many fans as if Cape Town had breathed its last breath, at least in this series of films, and at least with Evans playing it.

"In d & Other words, Cape is dead, "wrote one of the fans brutally. another: "No, he's going to marry Sharon Carter and move to a north state farm with an old screamer. Not true? "

Officially wrapped in Avengers 4. It was at least a moving day, playing this role over the past 8 years has been an honor to all those who are in front of the camera, behind the camera and in the audience, thank you for the memories! Eternally grateful.

As Infinity War observers know, some characters are dead – or seemed to be dead – before Thanos did Heimdall (Idris Elba), Loki (Tom Hiddleston), Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and Vision (Paul Bettany) are at a different death level from the others, well that once again, the word death does not always mean forever to the land of Marvel.

The actor Benicio del Toro, who plays The Collector, told Cinema Blend that his character was still in life, even though he did not know he was joking. Later, he seemed to confirm this conviction in The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.

And some characters are to guess. We have not seen the fate of Shuri (Letitia Wright), Mr. Baku (Winston Duke) and Wong (Benedict Wong). In addition, Ant-Man (Paul Rudd),

Hawkeye, who was not seen in Infinity War, returns for Avengers 4. Jeremy Renner posted a photo in early September, stating that it was "good to be back !!! " then followed up with another with a lot of hashtags related to Avengers. At least one fan theory suggests that Hawkeye's family, or part of it, disappeared during the great wave of Thanos, and that the archer is now seeking revenge.

Moreover, for almost a year now, there are rumors that Hawkeye is adopting another super-identity, that of the masked ninja Ronin, one of the most popular comic book identities. ; Hawkeye. This could mean that we are seeing Renner's character put arrows and arches aside for martial arts skills in Avengers 4. And by the end of September 2018, pictures leaked seemed to show Renner in what appears to be traditional Japanese armor and holding a sword. More evidence for Ronin's theory?

On September 17, Renner shared a photo of himself wearing a bruised makeup-covered face, which would seem to indicate that Hawkeye is closely involved in the next film. . "Every day does not start the same way … but always finish with a smile," wrote Renner.

And remember what we said about the death of Gamora, different from the people affected by the fall? That does not mean she's gone for good. A Reddit user poses an intriguing theory about the spirit of Gamora who is trapped in the soul stone, a plot that has roots in comics. In this theory, she would not be released in Avengers 4, but in Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3, which, as we all know, is in the limbo of production . This theory has legs – this would create a huge quest for GOTG3, as Star-Lord and his team would certainly fight until the last breath to get their team member back.

The photos lost during the new takes appeared in September 2018, and lent more credence to the idea that time travel will play an important role in the plot. (Note Captain America's well-shaven look and Black Widow, who peeks into a restaurant, seems to have the red hair that she wore in previous Avengers movies.) And hey, Paul "Ant-Man" Rudd!

John Slattery, who played Tony Stark's father, Howard in Iron Man 2 and Captain America: Civil War, would have a role in the film. Howard Stark was killed by the Winter Soldier in a disturbing scene of the 2016 Civil War. Although it can be seen in a flashback or simply in one of Tony's memories Stark, maybe a trip back in time could also bring him back.

And let's talk about Valkyrie, the Asgardian hero played by Tessa Thompson. At the end of September 2018, a fan on Twitter asked Thompson if her character had disintegrated in the blink of an eye and she replied, "No, she is in one piece and she is THRIVING. "

In addition, some of The Wrap's online films appeared to follow Thompson from London to Atlanta on the same private jet as Chris Hemsworth (Thor). Nothing is guaranteed, but this kind of photographic evidence would give the impression that Valkyrie has a decent role to play in Avengers 4.

Last Updated: On October 24th, a photo of Gwyneth Paltrow, who plays Pepper Potts, Tony Stark's love interest, was posted on Instagram by the Uncanny Comic Quest podcast.

This is completely unofficial and unconfirmed, but it seems to show Paltrow a version that looks like his own version of an Iron Man suit, posing in front of a green screen. "Tony dies and Pepper takes revenge on Thanos? Let us know in the comments below," reads the message.

Where does this costume come from? Insider points out that the suit looks like the one that Stark built for Potts in the comics, which she wears under the hero aka Rescue. This is not the first time the combination has surfaced recently. A week before this photo was shared, a photo showing Avengers 4 toys also contained similar armor.

This is a new juicy rumor that fans still have to chew on while the long wait for Avengers 4. continues to wait.

theories

With a year between two films, fans have plenty of time to think about what's going to happen. Here are some ideas, some more serious than others:

Captain Marvel and Valkyrie come to save everyone's bad in Vengers 4

Avengers 4: Great Lakes, is just a squirrel girl making friends with Thanos and convincing that people are all what there is has better. Then, SG, Thanos and (probably) Galactus have a picnic.

Every character who dies in "Avengers: Infinity War" should come back in "Avengers 4" with a black suit and a mustache.
