Abomination

The Abomination – memorably played by Tim Roth in The Incredible Hulk – has become forgotten by most fans of the MCU. However, if Thanos is looking for some Earth-based muscle to assist him in his evil endeavours during the Infinity War movies, he may well be someone the Mad Titan looks to for said assistance.

The reasons for this are threefold; first, Abomination is currently incarcerated and would welcome Thanos’ assistance in him being set free. Second, Abomination has previous with the Hulk and would happily fight him again with revenge in mind – even if the green guy does have the Avengers alongside him. Third, Thanos may see the Hulk as the biggest threat to him and needs someone of similar power to nullify that threat.

Moreover, with William Hurt’s General Ross set to reappear in the MCU – starting with 2016’s Captain America: Civil War (or, potentially, a mid/post-credits appearance in July’s Ant-Man movie), he could serve as a means of reintroducing Abomination to the franchise.
