I wonder if the warlock from the gotg2 teaser will play a role in either movie Adam Warlock will not be in them. He might not even be in GOTG 3, according to Gunn.

I mean if you have a character called Dick Rider you kinda have to throw him in a movie at some point.

I need to start reading comics again, I didn't realize there was a Richard Ryder/Sam Alexander ongoing, which is Literally What I Always Wanted. Who do we think is dying or somehow leaving/retiring in the IW movies (due to contracts expiring)? To me it's Tony Stark absolutely, Vision absolutely, and then a whole bunch of maybes - Cap, Thor, and Hulk are all maybes, if they don't do a Black Widow solo she's done, Hawkeye is probs retiring for, I assume, Kate Bishop Hawkeye. The people I can't see dying or otherwise leaving under any circumstance are BP, Doctor Strange, Star-Lord, Gamora, and probably Mantis, anyone directly related to Ant-Man, Spidey for obvious reasons, CM if she counts, Rhodey, Pepper if they're doing Rescue (I can't see any reason why Paltrow appeared in Homecoming, especially considering how significant, unmarketed, and open-ended her cameo was, outside of contractual obligations unless they promised her a Rescue solo after IW, considering how anti-Marvel she was for a while and how they seemed more or less fine with her not appearing in MCU movies any more despite having one movie left. Like if she was done after Homecoming and only did it because her contract said she had to you'd think they'd have written her out of the MCU way more definitively than she was, or promoted the fact that she was in the movie), Scarlet Witch, Bucky, and Sam. I could see them getting rid of Cap if they're gonna do Bucky Cap, and before Ragnarok I would've said Thor was a goner but Hemsworth seems actually eager to play the character after the success of Ragnarok, so I could see him becoming more of a maybe. On one hand Hulk can't basically ever helm a solo but everyone seems to love Ruffalo on top of the actor seeming fine with his current place as a permanent cameo fixture of other people's movies, on top of which unlike IM, Cap, and Thor I can't really see a good narrative way they introduce other Hulks. I'm actually super excited for Phase 4, considering how heavily Feige has implied that IW is gonna clear a TON of pieces off the table, not just the obvious ones like IM and Vision.

I think they've said Vision losing the Mind Stone might not necessarily mean his death, so I'm still holding onto hope that if Wanda dies, we get a movie based on the Tom King series. Which is stupid, but I'm still hoping. My bets are Hawkeye and maybe Widow die. Cap and Stark pull a heroic sacrifice in either this or the next Avengers, each in a different movie.

I mean to me it's just a given Tony dies, to the point where it'd be more surprising to me if he doesn't. RDJ's made hundreds of millions off the character, and he's wanted to leave the role for like half a decade now. Like, I don't think it's diminishing returns - it's not - but RDJ is the actor upon which Marvel Studios is built, and he seems super grateful for it but really wants to do other things. And who can blame him? There's really nowhere else for Tony Stark to go and nothing really left for him to do, he's made his money, and Homecoming seemed thematically in keeping with an actor who wanted to figuratively and literally pass the torch to the new guy. He's on a picture-to-picture deal, makes something absurd like nearly 9 figures off of every movie he's in, so just for financial relief it makes sense to kill him off. He wants to leave, you can see Homecoming as a way for him to get used to pulling back from being in a universe he's lived in for a decade, and it opens up all these creative paths for Marvel since they don't have to build every movie around RDJ like they have since 2010. Everyone wins, and Feige seems really canny about it being necessary. To me, when Feige mentions a major character dying in IW, my first thought is some like Cap/Thor/Hulk, since that would be surprising - the writing's been on the wall for Tony dying since like 2012.

Hawkeye lives, they're going to kill his family. He was photographed in the Ronin outfit recently. I think it's an even split, either Steve/Tony dies, maybe even both, one in 3 and the other in 4.

Stark is in direct confrontation with a Infinity Gem-Powered Thanos in the trailer, he's dead. I'd like to see a Infinity War Veteran Captain America assuming control of a new SHIELD, it would take the spotlight out of Evans and let him focus on other projects while still being part of the MCU.

They aren’t killing Hulk until they finish his character arc which they’ve already said is going to span multiple movies. Hemsworth has by all accounts just now really found his groove as Thor and he’s not going to want to lose that in his literal next outing. Also I’m defecting to ISIS if they kill Captain America so my guess is that it will be Iron Man.

I don't want to lose anybody, but if someone has to go, it can be Iron Man. It better not be Steve. If it is Steve, I want Sam Cap over Bucky Cap. I feel like any of the Guardians, Strange, Spider-Man, and BP are safe. I'd like Thor and Hulk back. I would be really sad to lose Wanda. Vision can go. They can have War Machine too. I recognize the silliness in this question, but I'll ask anyway. Timeline wise, all of the Defender stuff would be in the past compared to IW, right? Because Homecoming introduced a big time skip or whatever. So there's no chance of me getting to see Jessica punch Thanos in the teeth.
