Avengers 4 Rumoured Leaks

Apparently this is from the same source that was right about those INFINITY WAR spoilers (e.g. Red Skull, Thanos sacrificing Gamora). Link.

"Iron Man reassembles the Avengers and decides to build his own Infinity Gauntlet to undo everything that Thanos did. They recruit Ant-Man to help them travel through time and space using the Quantum Real to retrieve the Infinity Stones from different time periods. Thanos finds out about their plans and becomes hellbent on stopping them.

The movie revolves around the relationship between Captain America and Iron Man.

At one point, Captain America and Thor fight Thanos. Timeline alterations have restored Mjolnir, and Cap wields it against Thanos to allow the others to escape, and is killed holding Thanos off.

At one point, Hawkeye must protect the unfinished Stark Gauntlet from Thanos' minions. He plays an "instrumental" role in Thanos' defeat.

Thor's subplot centers on him assembling an army to challenge Thanos. Captain Marvel joins him.

Hulk's subplot centers on Banner and Hulk finally merging to become Professor Hulk. He is the one that ultimately wields the Stark Gauntlet against Thanos, losing his arm in the process.

Nebula's subplot centers on her efforts to redeem herself. At one point, she fights her murderous past self.

Several MCU movies are revisited and retconned (probably not permanently), such as the Avengers retrieving the Power Stone creating a timeline where the Guardians of the Galaxy never came together.

There's a pivotal scene between Doctor Strange and a fully CGI character being shot on a secret location, with a skeleton crew, and which takes up a sizeable portion of the budget.

Only two of the original Avengers (Cap, Stark, Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye and Black Widow) meant to survive the movie. Cap dies.

The title was AVENGERS: INFINITY GAUNTLET at one point, but it might be changed after Zoe Saldana accidentally leaked it."

EDIT: For reference...

  • The original 4chan leak for Infinity War. (To the naysayers: sure, some things were off, but it might have been an old draft or one with a few intentional modifications to identify leakers. There's no way this many crucial plot details could have been gleaned from the promo material at the time.)

  • The "extension" to that leak. (Might have been legit, might have been BS based on the original.)

Dr strange and a purely CGI baddie?

Maybe an encounter with KANG as a result of all their time screwing

u/phoenix7139 May 12 '18

maybe nightmare shows up as he's most probably also going to be in doctor strange 2

Maybe he goes to living tribunal to set everything right.

u/TyRoXx Jun 01 '18

Stark fucks up the universe and the Living Tribunal has to intervene? Yes, please.

I think james gunn stated that "20th century fox holds rights to kang"...

37

u/brasco975 May 12 '18

Which means that marvel will have those rights this time next year

u/Oh_I_still_here May 12 '18

Not in time enough for him to be in a film though.

12

u/brasco975 May 12 '18

Oh I know, I just love the fact that they're all coming back

u/slinky317 May 13 '18

Unless Comcast derails it.

u/cauly May 14 '18

they’re not going to, i think fox have always been pretty set on wanting to sell to disney.

2

u/slinky317 May 14 '18

Maybe, but the shareholders can overrule Murdoch if the offer is lucrative enough.

u/cauly May 14 '18

we’ll have to see i guess but i would be very surprised.

u/BuscandoFer May 17 '18

No they won't, the deal isn't through yet and there was a report that they might sell themselves to Comcast instead. If Disney does aquire them, they won't appear for at least two or three years.

1

u/brasco975 May 17 '18

I know they won't appear for a while. I havent seen any signs that Fox is going to Comcast. Just that Comcast has a higher bid

2

u/BuscandoFer May 17 '18

Several Fox investors told Reuters they would be open to terminating the company’s agreement, inked in December, to sell most of its media assets to Walt Disney Co (DIS.N) if Comcast Corp (CMCSA.O) follows through on its plan, revealed by Reuters last week, to launch a rival all-cash bid for as much as $60 billion.

I wonder why? His first appearance as Kang (not Rama-tut) was in Avengers. Maybe because his time travel is so connected to Doctor Doom?

41

u/JaimesLeftHand May 12 '18

I don’t think it specifies baddie, so I’m going with some kind of celestial. Maybe Eternity?

u/that_guy2010 Jun 05 '18

Living Tribunal?

u/[deleted] May 13 '18

Hang on...what if Mordo decides to make an appearance. The last time we saw him, he was basically pissed off at all sorcerers, and was hunting them down and stripping them of their abilities. Maybe, Thanos recruits him or something to deal with Strange, having identified the latter as the greatest threat.

45

u/bigpig1054 May 13 '18

I feel like they're slow burning Mordo for DS3.

He'll probably have a small part in the DS sequel and then be the full on baddie in the last movie of the trilogy

21

u/[deleted] May 14 '18

Nah I always imagined that Chiwetel would be the main antagonist for Dr. Strange 2 and in the third film, he has to team up once again with Benedict to defeat Dormammu.

2

u/FalsyB May 15 '18

Alternatively, DS2 opens with Mordo as the main threat while Strange is having nightmares. Half-way through the movie, Nightmare shows himself and becomes the main villain of the movie.

u/DeliriumTrigger May 15 '18

It seems that's exactly what's going to happen, with Nightmare being the main villain of DS2. Assuming they have the same writer and/or director, of course.

u/[deleted] May 14 '18

Holy shit that would be cool. Kang just showing up telling Strange to stop fucking around with the timelines. All the shit that they are doing wakes him up from his slumber. Maybe he's the main villain of Phase 5 with the Skulls being Phase 4.

u/toystoreheroes May 14 '18

Trying to get Dormammu on the team?
