We have so many characters were dealing with.
We have a board with 67 characters on it.
So said directors Anthony and Joe Russo when askedabout the two-partAvengers: The Infinity Warepic.
More recently they changed that initial number.
The movie features 68 distinct characters, not 67,they addedat Wizard World in Cleveland.
And its also very possible that the 67-68 number that they threw out there wasnt entirely serious.
One down, 67 to go.
Josh Brolin was cast in the role and first appeared inGuardians of the Galaxy.
Last Seen:End credits ofAvengers: Age of Ultron, swiping an Infinity Gauntlet.
Next Up:Good question.
Nebula
We know Thanos daughter will return forGuardians of the Galaxy 2but without Thanos.
Last Seen:Disguised as Odin on the Throne of Asgard at the end ofThor: The Dark World.
Iron Man
Marvel Studios isnt going to give up their main money draw that easily, though.
Status:Tony was last seen apparently retiring from superheroics at the end ofAvengers: Age of Ultron.
Clearly, withCaptain America: Civil Waron the horizon, that wasnt the case.
In any event, hes a safe bet for at least oneInfinity Warmovie.
Last Seen:Having visions ofRagnarokduringAvengers: Age of Ultron.
Status:Confirmed!Joe Russorecently saidhes excited to work with Thor.
How he ends up inThor: Ragnarokis anybodys guess.
Shes also (at least until Carol Danvers finally makes her debut) the face of Marvels female superheroes.
Last Seen:Helping train the new recruits inAvengers: Age of Ultron.
Shes still part of the team inCaptain America: Civil War, too.
A bigger role inCivil Warshould help build his popularity.
Last Seen:Celebrating the birth of a new arrival inAvengers: Age of Ultron.
Hell be back forCivil War.
Status:Another safe bet.
Status:Well, lets see howCivil Warturns out.
With her power levels, shell likely be an important part of the fight against Thanos inInfinity War.
Status:Not confirmed, but he may as well be.
We still have to see what happens with him at the end ofCivil War.
Status:A safe bet for at least one installment.
Its safe to say that Wakanda isnt his only jurisdiction.
Heres what were looking at.
Doctor Strange
This long-time Marvel character will headline his own Marvel Cinematic Universe movie in 2016.
Status:Count on it.
Carols introduction and the cosmic nature ofInfinity Warcould lead to someone else joining the party, too.
Carols superhero origin story is tied to that of Marvels first Captain Marvel, Kree soldier Mar-Vell.
Assuming they use Mar-Vell as the gateway to Carols origin, this one counts as two entries.
Status:Likely, but unconfirmed.
Weve seen Inhumans-related concepts getting the spotlight onAgents of SHIELD, too.
A half dozen or so Inhumans helps us get closer to that magic 67-68 number, too.
Status:Possible, but unconfirmed.
Because of the size of this article, we had to break it up over a few pages.
Hit the dropdown menu to explore more!
2(seems pretty soon, huh?
Star-Lord is a fantastic character and Chris Pratt is an awesome performer so youd be very excited.
Status:Looking good!
Shes sure to have more unfinished business with Nebula, too.
Drax
Drax has several things going for him that could mark him for inclusion inInfinity War.
If he survives, he could lend a hand during one of the twoInfinity Warmovies.
Status:Maybe a little less likely than the other Guardians weve mentioned so far.
Status:Possible.James Gunn just confirmedthat the Collector isnt inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol.
2, but wouldnt rule out him appearing in other Marvel movies.
Status:Well, lets see howGuardians of the Galaxy Vol.
Who knows how many others James Gunn might have waiting in the wings?
Vance Astro, maybe?
Agents of SHIELD
Again, this gets a little tricky.
Its been diminishing returns sinceThe Winter Soldier, though.
Status:The lack of Nick Fury in recent Marvel efforts is a little troubling.
Sharon Carter
Status:Pending outcome ofCivil War.
Status:Possible.Coulson deserves another crack at Loki after what happened to him inThe Avengers.
Fans would go nuts.
Now, as for Coulsons team… ## Pepper Potts and Happy Hogan.
Where would Tony be without Pepper Potts?
Well, we might find out.
Gwyneth Paltrows Marvel contract apparently ended afterIron Man 3.
Jane Foster
Natalie Portman wont appear inThor: Ragnarok.
Shes only appeared in two Marvel movies so far, and nobody knows how many she signed on for.
Aside from the technical knowledge of his own, hes got ties to government agencies like SHIELD.
Even a brief cameo will help illustrate the size of the threat inInfinity War.
Status:Jaimie Alexander is the star ofBlindspoton NBC, which is already set for a second season.
That might tie up her schedule and keep her away fromInfinityWar.
Then again, if its only a brief appearance, its possible.
Heimdall
Last Seen:Appearing in Thors hallucinations inAvengers: Age of Ultron.
Theyll be around forThor: Ragnarok, though.
Status:Possible.Even Thor could use some help from his friends.
First we have to see who survivesRagnarok.
Status:Unlikely.Like nearly everyone,Weaving signed a multi-picture dealwith Marvel.
We can hope, though.
Maybe well even get the cool Jack Kirby designed body one day!
Well keep this to the more reasonable scenarios.
You guys gotta wait and see,he toldThe Hollywood Reporterin 2015.
But, you know, you cant everythings going to be different in the Infinity Wars.
Shes another character with reason to hate Thanos, as he killed her parents.
Status:Unlikely, but you never know.
Status:Unlikely, but it would be a lot cooler if it wasnt!
Spider-Woman
Nobody knows exactly where the Spider-Woman rights stand in relation to Sony these days.
Shes been a key member of recent Avengers teams, too.
Status:Unlikely… unless we hear otherwise about Tessa Thompsons new Marvel Cinematic Universe role.
This may or may not be Tessa Thompsons role in the film, too.
If any of this is true, and if she survivesRagnarok, shed be a good fit forInfinity War.
Status:Extraordinarily unlikely, thanks to pesky lawyers.
Namor
This one is pretty tricky.
Theyre about to have their hands full withThe Defendersgoing into production in late 2016 or early 2017anyway.
