There are major SPOILERS forAvengers: Infinity Warbelow, so read ahead at your own risk.Infinity Warsaw Thanos gather all of the Infinity Stones and hastily snap his fingers, achieving his goal ofkilling off half the universe. Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe sat back in shock as some of their favorite characters turned to dust right before their eyes. This has led to some pretty intense discussion about how many “true” deaths there are inInfinity War. But what about the characters that weren’t shown in the movie? Thankfully, the Russo Brothers sat down to discuss some of those off screen deaths.
Have no fearHoward the Duckfans. Joe and Anthony Russo declare that he survived the events ofInfinity War, which means he may be able to pop up inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3or even in his own standalone adventure. Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster character’s whereabouts are still currently unknow as the directing duo declare that this could be to spoilery. Anthony Russ clarified by saying, “When we say spoiler, (we mean) potential spoiler.”
Matt Damon’s Actor Loki is as seen in the opening moments ofThor Ragnarokunfortunately dead, which is a bummer, but it makes sense and it’s probably for the best. At the very least, Jimmy Kimmel will be excited to learn of that news. Liv Tyler’s Betty Ross was also a casualty of Thanos' deadly snap inInfinity War. She was rumored to appear inInfinity Warand that didn’t happen, which makes it look like she will not be coming back at all forAvengers 4, unless something drastic happens.
Korg and Miekwere deemed as potential spoilers, but Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige has announced that there are plans for Korg and Miek in the future of the MCU. Although Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie was not mentioned, it has been confirmed that she survivedInfinity Waras well. What aboutBlack Panther’s Shuri? The Russo Brothers have deemed her whereabouts as a potential spoiler as well. However, there’s just no way that Thanos killed offShuri. That seems a little far-fetched, even for the MCU. And its heavily rumored that she will be getting in the Black Panther suit forAvengers 4.
Jaime Alexander’s Lady Sif did not surviveInfinity War. Joe Russo confirmed that she is “gone.” Alexander was not able to participate inThor: Ragnarokbecause of a previous engagement and now she’s been turned to dust, so she won’t be inAvengers 4either. Jacob Batalon’s Ned is apparently too spoilery for the Russo Brothers to publicly discuss. However, there’s the sequel forSpider-Man: Homecomingon the way, so it makes sense that he and Peter Parker will return in some way.
Speaking of Peter Parker, what about Marisa Tomei’sAunt May? She’s safe, according to the Russo Brothers, which means that Tony Stark may have some explaining to do when he returns to Earth from Titan. Lupita Nyong’o’s Nakia status is currently unknown, but when asked why she wasn’t inInfinity War, the Russo Brothers admitted that she was on “missions.” Anthony Russo added that she is “deep undercover,” which we’ll take as her being safe and sound. There you go, some have lived, some we don’t know, and some are dust. This report originated fromThe Huffington Post.
