The fourth Avengers movie is yet to unveil its official title, and isn’t expected to do so until November – by which point we should have the first teaser trailer to pore over.
That is, in a nutshell, everything we know (so far) about Avengers 4, though there are one or two pretty convincing theories out there in the wilderness of cyberspace, the latest of which claims to have identified the Avengers 4 title as ‘Avengers: Eternity War.’
Per Reddit, this speculative report begins by listing all of the titles that have been effectively ruled out over the past few months – think ‘Endgame,’ ‘Forever’ and ‘Avengers Assemble.’ The Russo Brothers are adamant that ‘Endgame’ is in no way related to the plot of Avengers 4, even if Doctor Strange uttered the phrase during the throes of Infinity War – just like Tony Stark before him.
And now, for the evidence that supports this theory. Get your tin-foil hats ready; it’s speculation time!
Infinity War is a movie where the Avengers go to a bunch of different places all over space. Infinity is everything, and everywhere. It’s all the stuff, all the places. It looks like Avengers 4 is gonna be about time travel, judging by the leaked set photos of Ant-Man at the battle of New York. Eternity is all of time.
This theory concludes by stating that ‘Eternity War’ ticks every box, as it’s a neat and simple way of linking the two Avengers movies together.
But in all seriousness, think about it. It fits EVERY RULE. It’s similar to “Avengers Forever”, It’s not spoken in Infinity War, it makes sense from a marketing standpoint as it links the two movies together, and it just makes sense by what very little we know about the movie so far. Also, the Russos posted that thing on Instagram about Eternity and then deleted it, and while it’s probably nothing I’m going to pretend it has meaning.
Based on comments from the Russo Brothers – along with Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely – Avengers 4 is shaping up to be a totally different movie from the devastatingly bleak Infinity War, leading many to conclude that, yes, next year’s Marvel tentpole will feature time travel, after all. One way or another, we’ll find out very soon indeed.
