• Rumors about Avengers 4, "Infinity War" sequel

  There are quite a few unconfirmed rumors blasting across the Internet. Not sure I want to get into all of them but one caught my attention.
  
  You may already have heard that Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.) and Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) are planning a marriage at the beginning of 'Infinity War" (that wasn't clear to me when I saw the movie the first time). They are, of course, interrupted by Dr. Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo).
  
  So BGR published a little more information about that scene, showing a clip of Happy Hogan (Jon Favreau). It turns out that Gwyneth Paltrow also let slip some time back that Pepper and Tony have a child. In the movie there is a scene where she tries to tell him something important and the call breaks off (because Tony is on a spaceship leaving the Earth's vicinity). Fans are guessing she was about to confirm his instinct that they were expecting.
  
  One of the guesses that the BGR article makes is that Tony may leave the Avengers after the next film. There has been much discussion about the future of the team and the franchise over the last 12-18 months. Robert Downey, Jr. is (I think) the highest paid star in the franchise and he is probably ready to move on.
  
  Chris Evans, of course, was notably signed to do only six pictures and people are wondering when he will leave the franchise. In the comic books Steve Rogers dies and other characters take up the mantle of Captain America. That hasn't played out in the cinematic universe the same way, so we're still waiting to find out what happens.
  
  I may share some more rumors below. People are welcome to mention anything they find interesting. I don't know if any of these rumors should be considered "spoilers". A lot of things can be edited out of movies.

  I have to admit I dropped the ball on this thread but here is what happened: Marvel released the digital content online and virtually every entertainment site on the planet began publishing analyses. It made my head spin. And it ruined my mood.
  
  They're dumping tons of cool details on the Web but at the same time they're making it hard to keep up with all the fan theories and things.
  
  And on top of that Dave Bautista has all but demanded to be released from his contract for "Guardians of the Galaxy 3" over the James Gunn firing. I kind of don't blame Bautista. If you hate your job then why hang around?
  
  And so Screen Rant is suggesting that Gunn may return for a different movie. I suppose Disney doesn't want to look like it made a mistake? Come on.
  
  And Slash Film says that "Ant-Man and the Wasp" will be the last MCU movie that Netflix can show online (before other streaming services). Disney is launching their own streaming service and they will do the first runs for their movies from now on, I guess.
  
  And Alt Press says another Marvel TV show is being developed by / for ABC.

  And the latest rumor passing around the news media is that Marvel Studios is trying to persuade Disney leadership to reinstate James Gunn.
  
  With Dave Bautista threatening to back out of the deal, they may have some leverage. If Bautista drops I don't see why other cast members wouldn't drop. Everything with the Guardians is up in the air anyway, thanks to "Avengers: Infinity War". They could, of course, bring back another group of Guardians (they set that up at the end of GotG 2). But Disney really has less leverage here than a corporate board usually does. You cannot make a blockbuster movie without the talent.

  I recently read a fan theory that said that Loki isn't really dead, because at the last moment before Thanos killed him, he somehow slipped away and assumed the appearance and mien of Bruce Banner. This is the real reason that Bruce can't become the Hulk (aka "the other guy") for the rest of the movie - because Loki can't simulate the Hulk. It also explains why 'Bruce' knows his way around Dr. Strange's mansion; Bruce has never been there before - but Loki has.

  Well, I have to admit I have been wondering all along if Loki really died on the ship myself. But I think the exchange between Banner and the Hulk shows that was really him/them.
  
  There are so many crazy theories swirling about I'm not sure which ones are worth recognizing.

  I heard about that, too. I hope Captain America saves Iron Man in space.

  And so Michael Douglas confirmed that the Quantum Realm plays an important role in the next film. Also, Chris Evans officially said "good-bye" to his role as Steve Rogers after completing filming on the last movie. That doesn't necessarily portend Rogers' death (as in the comic books) but they could certainly have Captain America go out with a bang.
