‘Avengers: Infinity War’ Cast Update & Spoilers: No Wasp featured; More hero casualties?
After "Captain America: Civil War" fans are now anticipating the next "Avengers" movie with "Avengers: Infinity War." Most of the casts have already been confirmed and there are some that were said to be excluded from the film.
Talking with Blastr, actress Evangeline Lilly said during the New York Comic Con that the initial script for the "Ant-Man" sequel is already complete. She added that they are just now waiting for the studio to approve it. She revealed that the sequel will show the origin of her character Wasp.
Lily also confirmed that Wasp won't be part of "Avengers: Infinity War," but will be in the sequel. She explained that the "Ant-Man" sequel and the upcoming "Avengers" film won't arrive until 2018. The studio reportedly doesn't want to introduce Wasp in upcoming "Avengers" movie without properly giving the character an origin story.
This was also the reason why "Doctor Strange" wasn't included in "Captain America: Civil War." Fans will have to wait for the release of the "Avengers: Infinity War" sequel to be released in 2019 to see Wasp with the other superheroes.
Meanwhile, Movie News Guide made some speculations on which superhero will meet their bitter end in the next "Avengers" movie. Given that there will be a destructive force unlike any other against the heroes, it could be expected that one of them will perish in battle.
A lot of fans have speculated that it is more likely that Captain America will die in the new "Avengers" film. After giving up his shield after Tony Stark asked him to, he will be more vulnerable to attacks. There were also rumors that state that Thor would be meeting his end in the upcoming film to give way to a female Thor.
As of writing, Marvel has yet to release a statement about these rumors. "Avengers: Infinity War" Part 1 is scheduled to be released sometime in 2018.
