Flick Thanos's deadly finger in the final scene of the Avengers movie: Infinity War causes most of Marvel's favorite fans to turn into dust.
Considering that Thanos had succeeded in destroying half the life in the universe with a glance, many were wondering: "What happened to all Marvel characters beyond the Avengers story: Infinity War?
In an interview with HuffPost on Friday (5/11/2018), the duo of brothers Joe and Anthony Russo uncovered a fact related to the survival of Marvel characters we do not see in Infinity War.
Do they come to dust? Are they okay? Or is their fate too spoiler if talked about?
To be sure the Russo brothers claimed to first censor themselves before exposing the fate of the characters outside the Avengers and characters that have a correlation with each other.
Nevertheless, they still reveal one by one the surviving characters or the dead outside the battle Infinity War:
Howard the Duck (Seth Green)
Status: Congratulations.
The director's comment: "He's safe," Joe said.
Explanation: Howard appears in two Guardians of the Galaxy movies, and it looks like he will score a hat-trick in the Guardians of the Galaxy 3.
Jane Foster (Natalie Portman)
Status: Spoiler.
The director's comments: "When we say spoilers, (we mean) potentially spoilers," Anthony said.
Explanation: Natalie Portman is no longer part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) since completing Thor: The Dark World in 2013.
Nevertheless, Portman once said that he did not rule out a return to the Marvel universe. Therefore, there may be a reunion between Thor and Jane in the upcoming story.
Loki cast (Matt Damon) in opera
Status: Killed.
The director's comment: "He did not survive," Joe said.
Explanation: Matt Deadman, does it fit?
Betty Ross (Liv Tyler)
Status: He does not survive.
The director's comment: "Gone," Joe said.
Explanation: The character Betty Ross looks last time in the movie Incredible Hulk (2008), but he was mentioned to reappear in Infinity War.
However, it did not happen and most likely there was no hope for him to come as a cameo in Avengers 4. That's why this character can be summed up into dust.
Korg and Miek (Taika Waititi)
Status: Spoiler.
The director's comment: "Spoiler," Joe said.
Explanation: Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige once said that there is a grand plan for the characters Korg and Mike from Thor Ragnarok.
As we know some Asgardians managed to escape Thanos attacks. That way the human character of the stone and grasshopper is likely to survive.
Shuri (Letitia Wright)
Status: Mysterious.
The director's comment: "Spoiler," Joe said.
Explanation: In an interview, the Russo brothers once said that Shuri is likely to replace Black Panther's role. It seems reasonable why the Russo sisters are reluctant to say Shuri's condition is fine.
Lady Sif (Jaimie Alexander)
Status: Dead pathetic.
The director's comment: "Gone," Joe said.
Explanation: Jaimie Alexander is not in the movie Thor Ragnarok. The Russo brothers also confirmed that this character also will not appear in Avengers 4.
Ned (Jacob Batalon)
Status: Spoiler.
The director's comment: "Spoiler," Joe said.
Descriptions: Ned's condition should be fine too. If Peter Parker had not made it back, then Ned would be alone in the entire sequel to Spider-Man.
Aunt May (Marisa Tomei)
Status: Aunt May is fine.
The director's comment: "Congratulations," Anthony said.
Explanation: May will probably miss out on major roles or other potential roles in Avengers 4, but at least Marvel fans can sleep soundly after learning that Aunt May is not a dusty victim.
Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o)
Status: Unknown, but there is a chance he survived because # WakandaForever.
The director's comments: When asked why Nakia does not appear in Infinity War, Joe says, "He's on a mission." Anthony added, "Yeah, in disguise."
Explanation: We do not know exactly what happened to Nakia, but the director says that he is on mission. With that statement we can hope for the best for him.
