10 Awesome Moments Of Foreshadowing In Marvel Movies

With such an ardent fanbase as they have, ready to pore over every scene with a fine toothcomb, Marvel loves to tease future plotlines and characters within their movies. These are often featured in the post-credits stingers - Thanos picking up his Infinity Gauntlet at the end of Avengers: Age of Ultron being a pretty obvious one. However, there are a lot of much subtler ones out there, too.

5) A Strange Namedrop – Captain America: The Winter Soldier

As we already know, Marvel loves to give hints about upcoming superheroes, just as in Fury’s map. They are not always so subtle, however, as this namedrop from Captain America: The Winter Soldier shows. Still, what it lacks in subtlety it makes up for in pure fanboy excitement.

When Cap and Natasha are interrogating secret HYDRA agent Jasper Sitwell, he lets them in on their plan to monitor those who are a threat to them. You know, the usual ones; Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, Stephen Strange… Wait, what?

Yep, this namedrop foreshadows the arrival of the Sorcerer Supreme himself, soon to be played by Benedict Cumberbatch this November. More intriguingly, Sitwell also talks of a “TV anchor in Cairo.” Though he doesn’t mention a name, this will jump out at Marvel fans as a nod to Moon Knight.

Hopefully that’s more than an easter egg and a nod that a Moon Knight movie is coming.
