It’s all leading up to this: The Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy defeated small fry that included the Chitauri, Ronan, Ultron, and Ego. Now Thanos, the ultimate MCU baddie, is coming out of the shadows, and he’s ready to take over the universe.
Spider-Man: Homecoming (to be released on July 7, 2017), Thor: Ragnarok (November 3, 2017), and Black Panther (February 6, 2018) will set things up for Avengers: Infinity War. After that, all bets are off, especially since Infinity War is supposed to be the beginning of the end for the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we know it.
Thanks to License! Global Magazine, we have new synopses for Ragnarok, Black Panther, and Infinity War. They may not reveal much about the movies, but they shed some light on the main characters. Check it out, via CBM!
Thor: Ragnarok
Thor’s world is about to explode in Marvel’s Thor: Ragnarok. His devious brother, Loki, has taken over Asgard, the powerful Hela has emerged to steal the throne for herself, and Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe. To escape captivity and save his home from imminent destruction, Thor must first win a deadly alien contest by defeating his former ally and fellow Avenger…The Incredible Hulk!
Black Panther
After the events of Captain America: Civil War, King T’Challa returns home to the reclusive, technologically advanced African nation of Wakanda to serve as his country’s new leader. However, T’Challa soon finds that he is challenged for the throne from factions within his own country. When two foes conspire to destroy Wakanda, the hero known as Black Panther must team up with C.I.A. agent Everett K. Ross and members of the Dora Milaje, Wakandan Special Forces, to prevent Wakanda from being dragged into a world war.
Avengers: Infinity War
As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
