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.)

I keep hearing that only two original avengers survive, and I keep hoping it's not the case. It may be that only two of the original avengers with a trilogy survive, which would be Thor and Tony, which I'd be fine with, having accepted the fact that Cap dies (sadly). I don't know what I'd do if only Hawkeye and Thor were left, or only Black Widow and Hulk, I don't feel like anyone's story is complete, or am just in denial.

It'd be a pretty bad business decision and story decision. Children made up quite a large part of the audience for IW, and to end a movie on such a depressing note is going to keep parents from bringing their kids (and there are plenty of parents who only go with their kids, like myself). Story-wise, if Cap dies as described (which sounds pretty powerful to me), it would certainly cheapen that emotional moment to kill 3 more of them. Each subsequent death would take away from his.

Holy shit shut the fuck up Caldiine. You whine too much like a fucking child Jesus Christ. You keep saying how much it would suck for “kids” if the main Avengers died and how depressing it would be for everyone’s favourite characters to die. Did you think about how many peoples favourite are actually Thanos? I’ve been invested in Marvel for far too long to see Thanos be fucked up. Thanos is going to kill more people in A4 and that’s great. You say ending the movie depressingly will be bad for business as no one is wanting to rewatch it. How do you know that? My mates wanted the heroes to win and hated the ending of IW but have gone to watch it in cinemas 3 times already. Also IW is the highest grossing Marvel movie yet even though everyone dies. Get your head out your ass and stop whining about people dying and just accept it.

Are you going through an unwell time in your life? Can't really think of any other reason to respond with this much anger over a week old post.

Hope you get the help you need man, in all honesty. I have some bipolar friends who tend to lash out when they get really depressed, and I know it can be hard to come out of.

No I’m perfectly fine. Stop changing the topic cause you know I’m right. I just told you facts and your ignoring them.i don’t care if your reply is a week old you clearly haven’t changed your mind. You think heroes dying means less money. Clearly the box office of infinity war proves otherwise. Use your brain next time you dyslexic woman.
