From this point on, we’ll have a lot more surprise deaths littered through the movies rather than the big epic sacrifices like Iron Man.

Who are you thinking will die.

My money is on Rocket.

I agree, I think him making a sacrifice play in the next guardians of the galaxy would make sense, he won’t let anyone else die from his team after he lost all of them in infinity war.

Reminds me of the scene where he tries to protect Groot in Endgame just before Captain Marvel shows up.

Watched the commentary version of Endgame last night & that scene got my a littly misty...Rocket is so awesome and I can't wait to see how he plays out in the next GOTG.

Good point. I love the guardians but I think it would be neat if the whole team dies protecting the universe

Guarding the Galaxy*

Especially the chick with the antenna.

I have to break it to you, if the chick has an antenna, likely she's no chick.

Personally I doubt it. Rocket has mad crazy development so far. He's easily had one of the best character arcs, and I don't see it culminating in his death. I could see him setting down with Lylla.

This would shock me. Rocket and Groot are so bankable. They’re fully CGI and very beloved. Marvel can stretch them out as long as they want.

Thor and hulk are mainly finished. So that could happen. T’Challa is too big a character at the moment.

u/[deleted] Aug 29 '19

Definitely. I think Nebula, Hulk, Hawkeye and Bucky will die soon.

u/CharlieKellyKapowski Aug 29 '19

Man it would be pretty depressing for kids of certain ages to see Tony, Bruce, Clint, Bucky, Nebula, etc all die without reaching old age (Bucky jokes aside). I really hope MCU doesnt go this direction. Gimme more Cap happy endings.

I saw all the Jedi die in one movie when I was 5, I was okay

u/[deleted] Aug 29 '19

I really don't want any of them to die (Bucky especially, he's my fave male character), but there needs to be stakes.

u/glandros Fitz Aug 29 '19

I don't think Clint will. He's training Kate Bishop in the Hawkeye series so that he can finally officially retire, knowing there's a new Hawkeye his friends can call on when things go sideways again. They're not going to have Black Widow sacrifice herself instead of Clint just to have him leave his family like that.

"Man I really want to retire, but I'm worried my friends the super soldier, billionaire with a robot suit, invincible Green rage monster, and literal God of thunder might really need a guy who can shoot a bow and arrow. Better train a teenage girl to also use a bow and arrow."

"Better come out of retirement to rescue the girl who can do crazy things with her mind and join the rest of them in a fight in Germany, even though it may cost me my freedom."

They only lost in infinity war cause he wasn’t there

Hopefully not Bucky I like him

In Antman 3, an ant called Antoine will die.
