8 Burning Questions We Have After Watching Avengers: Endgame

Avengers: Endgame is finally here and Marvel fans around the world are fleeing to theaters this weekend to witness the grand finale of the MCU as we know it. In more ways than you would expect, though, Endgame doesn't conclude the last chapter with a definitive period as much as a series of question marks.

Avengers Endgame Thor

While Endgame seems to provide a definitive ending for Iron Man and (the original) Captain America, it leaves things open ended for Thor. This matches what we know about the actors’ continued relationship with Marvel: Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans have now completed their contracts, but Chris Hemsworth seems up for more if the studio wants him.

The movie sees Thor take his mother’s advice to heart and decide to relinquish the role of king of New Asgard, appointing Valkyrie as his successor. He then hitches a ride into space with the Guardians on the Benatar. A hilarious scene follows where Quill and Thor get on each other’s nerves again, as the latter renames the team the “Asgardians of the Galaxy.”

It’s unclear whether this is just a final bit of comedy for the fun dynamic of Thor and the Guardians, or if it’s a tease for the character sticking around the spaceship for Guardians 3. Seeing how popular pairing the God of Thunder up with the space heroes has been, Marvel might be open to that. Then again, Thor could easily overshadow the Guardians, so James Gunn might not want to use him.

Alternatively, a Thor 4 may be on the way, as Tessa Thompson has revealed that a Taika Waititi-directed third sequel has been discussed.

Is Spider-Man: Far From Home Really Set After Endgame?

Ever since the first trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home came out, we’ve been wondering whether the sequel follows Endgame or is actually a prequel to IW. If it was set afterwards, the trailers seemed to suggest the snap was reversed without much fuss, as Spidey was shown to be going on a fun vacation with his pals and Nick Fury was doing his thing.

Having seen Endgame, we know that the fallout of the snap is still very messy. Peter’s been resurrected five years later, as has Ned, apparently – they were both seen at school at the end of Endgame, suggesting they were both dusted. If FFH follows Endgame though, the same must be true of Peter’s entire friendship circle, as they’re all still school-age in the sequel. That seems a bit too convenient to be the case, though.

But the case it is, at least according to what Sony’s Amy Pascal said back in 2017. She revealed that FFH would pick up “a few minutes after Avengers 4 wraps as a story.” Now that we’ve seen the movie, it seems like a huge tonal shift to go from Peter reuniting with his friends and still dealing with existing in a totally different world to holidaying in Europe. Given this, it sounds like the sequel will mostly skip over the ramifications of his resurrection.
