Marvel’s The Avengers, the 2012 American superhero film which started the Avengers Initiative will come to an end in Avengers: Infinity War.
At Avengers: Age of Ultron DVD/blu-ray release promotion Q&A – Marvel Studios’ senior vice president of production and development, Jeremy Latcham & Marvel Studios president, Kevin Feige reveals that Infinity War will be the conclusion to Avengers as we know them:
“I think it definitely is an end to some version of the team that we’ve come to know as The Avengers.
Who knows exactly what is going to happen yet in that film, but I think this version of that team—and I think we start to hint at it at the end of Age of Ultron—will be evolving.”
He adds, “And one of the things that we love from the comics is that the roster is always changing. New people are coming onto the team.
You can pick up an Avengers book 10 years later and you don’t recognize the people on the cover but the ideas and the ideals that make the Avengers still exist and I think that’s part of what this culmination will be.
We’re seeing this version of the team doing this thing to save the universe, the galaxy, however you want to put it, and then we’ll kind of see where that goes.
You know? It’s not the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe but I think it’s the end of part of it, for sure. We’re still trying to sort out which parts,” Latcham concludes.
We already saw the Avengers lineup changed at the end of Age of Ultron – Tony Stark / Iron Man, Dr. Bruce Banner / Hulk, Clint Barton / Hawkeye & Thor scattered. So we will see how it goes from there.
And with Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Samuel L. Jackson, and other members of the Avengers cast’s contracts nearing the end, we are hoping to see the biggest creative change when Phase Three ends, what do you think? sound off in the comments!
Avengers: Infinity War – Part I is set to release on May 4, 2018 with Part II to hit theaters on May 3, 2019.
