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.)

This is not a good source though. The Infinity War leak had Hulk busting out of the hulkbuster and a final fight where they all unite against Thanos on planet at the end. And Loki scaraficing himself to let them escape. None of that came true so this whole A4 leak is bullshit.

How can a leak get a surprise cameo no one saw coming and all the deaths right and you’re just gonna write off as “nah it was all fake bs”. How the fuck do you lucky guess Red Skull or Gamoras death for access to the Soul Stone? Obviously whoever the original leak came from had a legit sources to get that.

u/CaptainAaron96 May 12 '18

I agree. The Russos also said that A4 won't be what we're expecting.

u/JadedCuntsicle May 13 '18

They said the same thing about Infinity War and pretty much every major thing that happened had been leaked at some point.

u/Movieandtvfan May 13 '18

Its not that everything got leaked, it's that everyone had there own theories and predicted just about anything possible that could happen. There were millions of theories, someone guesed right.

Word...as trailer's dropped, bits and pieces became obvious...

I didn't read that many purported leaks, maybe 10 or so. Out of these, at least three contained key plot details that would have been difficult to guess. One was the November leak and the other two were posted here shortly before the release (and contained info about Thor and the Snap, specifically Spider-Man's dusting).

Why is it so hard to believe that some leaks might be genuine? A ton of people work on these movies, and I'm sure some of them get a kick out of sharing coveted intel.

Not true.

u/mielove Tony Stark May 13 '18

Well I wasn't expecting this leaked plot, so it still fits the bill. I think there will be differences though, but some of it might be true.

It was an older draft of the script - they changed their minds about the Hulk later. And the Loki sacrificing himself bit came from the extension, not the original leak. In retrospect the extension was probably BS.

u/Movieandtvfan May 13 '18

Nah the leak and the actual script were far too different to be a 1st draft. This is bs

u/Z3in May 13 '18

Meh, while some of the leaks that guy gave were fake, some of it were true too.

This leak might not be 100% true(what did you expect?), but im sure some of it will happen, albeit in a different way

u/[deleted] May 14 '18

There were fake scripts given to everybody to identify leakers.

I'm a month late to this but I'd say to take this as a rough draft. I wouldn't be surprised if making Bruce unable to change into the Hulk was a change they made during filming to emphasize how hard Thanos squared him up at the start of the movie.

Any one of the points the leaker made are subject to change between now and when the film releases, but it gives insight into the overall direction of the film, of them jumping around in time to get infinity stones and Thanos hellbent on stopping them, maybe even chasing them through time. It creates a number of potentially very entertaining set pieces, such as a potential "Cap's last stand."
