History WMG / AvengersInfinityWar

* The nicknames will all be references to cartoons, movies, and books, confusing the Guardians who don't know about human pop culture. Rocket will be [[WesternAnimation/RegularShow Rigby]], Groot will be [[Literature/TheLorax Truffula]], Gamora will be Wally the Green Monster, Drax will be [[Literature/TheStarsMyDestination Gully Foyle]], Mantis will be [[WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}} Jiminy Cricket]] and Star-Lord will be [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Samus]]. Peter will vaguely remember Samus [[SamusIsAGirl and be surprised when he finds out the character is female.]]

[[WMG: Part of the plot will be similar to the Comicbook/AvengersDefendersWar...]]

[[WMG: We will get a Comicbook/HouseOfM-like plot at one point, with the Reality Stone being used to manipulate the heroes]]

[[WMG: Abomination, Justin Hammer and Baron Mordo will make a mention or guest appearance that will tie in to the MCU Franchise/FantasticFour and/or the Masters of Evil]]

[[WMG:Part 1 will largely focus on a new roster of Avengers, possibly the MCU version of the Comicbook/NewAvengers]]
With the rumors that ''Age of Ultron'' ends with the decimation of the original line-up and several members quitting, ''Infinity War'' will start with the New Avengers. The team will feature characters mostly introduced in Phases 2 and 3, such as the ComicBook/TheFalcon, ComicBook/AntMan, ComicBook/DoctorStrange, ComicBook/BlackPanther, [[ComicBook/MsMarvel Captain Marvel]], ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} and ComicBook/ScarletWitch, ComicBook/TheVision and ComicBook/WarMachine. A few old Avengers like ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} may appear in Part 1, but most of the original team will be off the board until Part 2. Some of the Creator/{{Netflix}} heroes like Comicbook/{{Daredevil}}, ComicBook/JessicaJones, ComicBook/LukeCage and ComicBook/IronFist could also appear.

In the [[ComicBook/SecretWars1984 Secret Wars event]], [[Franchise/SpiderMan Spider-Man]] is given the Symbiote, an alien creature that enhances one's strength, but also their negative emotions. It's entirely possible that the Venom Symbiote is on the Planet where the Avengers will confront Thanos. Spider-Man might stumble upon it after being badly beaten by some of Thanos' daughters (Who will be expies of the [[Franchise/FantasticFour Heralds of Galactus]]), and only being able to defeat them due to the strength boost after finding the symbiote. This will lead into the Second Spider-Man film, which will adapt the Venom storyline while The third film adapts [[Comicbook/MaximumCarnage Maximum Carnage]].

Not necessarily with the same characters, but after ''Civil War'', Tony may form a variation of [[Comicbook/AvengersTheInitiative The Initiative]] as an army of heroes who help fight Thanos.

* Adding credence to this theory is the fact that Marvel has repeatedly said there are no plans for a Hawkeye solo film or TV show, meaning he could be killed without ruining a potential franchise. He could pull a HeroicSacrifice in ''Comicbook/AvengersDisassembled'' to lend weight to his death.
