Everything You Need To Know Before Watching Avengers: Infinity War

Thor

First Seen: Thor (2011)

Last Seen: Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

Current Situation: Thor was carrying out a galaxy-wide quest to locate the Infinity Stones, but this was cut short when he had to save his homeworld of Asgard from his evil sister Hela in Ragnarok. The planet’s time was up, though, and Thor could only rescue his people and cart them off on a refugee ship. With his father Odin’s death, Chris Hemsworth’s fan favorite is now the King of Asgard. Last we saw him, he’d lost his eye and had taken to wearing an eye patch.

Hulk

First Seen: The Incredible Hulk (2008)

Last Seen: Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

Current Situation: After leaving Earth in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Hulk ended up on the planet Sakaar and became a gladiator in the Grandmaster’s Contest of Champions. He later joined Thor in his fight against Hela. After two years in charge, Bruce Banner finally gained control again, though he voluntarily let the Hulk back out when the Jade Giant was needed. Before he transformed, Banner feared that he would never return, but promos for Infinity War have confirmed that this was unfounded as he’s still able to switch between his two forms.
