Why Iron Man Needs To Die In Avengers: Infinity War

The Avengers Needs A Shake-Up

Like any sports team will tell you, the arrival of new faces and the departure of old ones can invigorate a side. Too often, the same-old people can inspire the same-old tactics, and there needs to be a transition. In the case of the Avengers, the same holds true.

The classic line-up of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Hulk needs a bad shake-up. Sure, we’ve seen some newbies – like Scarlet Witch, Falcon, and Vision – join the group, but some of the older leaders, such as Stark, need to hop on their ponies and ride away into the sunset.

It’s only a matter of time until the audiences yawn at the prospect of another Avengers movie. So, shouldn’t Marvel act preemptively and start taking the necessary steps to freshen things up? The rumors are that the next phase of the MCU will be cosmic, so the time is right to start removing some of the old members and replacing them with newer ones.
