>> My prediction is that Captain America will die though and Bucky will take over the shield as the new Cap.
Until Dr. Strange uses the Time Gem at the end of Infinity Wars Part 1 and brings him back to life, so he can utter the famous AVENGERS ASSEMBLE phrase, uniting the divided and on-the-ropes good guys into a solid fighting force against Thanos.
I’ll put $1.00 on it.
It’s possible he may just retire. But bottom line is this: the actor playing Captain America has basically said that he’s done. His contract ends with this movie (I believe), and he’s already said he’s thinking about moving away from acting and moving more into directing.
Sebastian Stan, on the other hand, still has something like 6 movies left on his Marvel contract.
Two things Marvel is doing exactly right: All of their movies are taking place in the same timeline, which I’m sure is a nightmare logistically, but I like it. And also, they’ve said they will not be doing any re-boots, which makes me love them so much. I mean seriously, how many different versions of Batman’s origin do you need?
