Avengers 4 may still be more than 9 months away from release, but Infinity War's jaw-dropper of a cliffhanger ending has left fans intensely speculating about the ambitious sequel from the moment the end credits rolled.

As the ultimate climax of a decade-plus of MCU movies, Avengers 4 needs to steer clear of countless issues it could easily fall victim to. Given the sheer scope of the project, the increasing complexity and high number of moving parts involved, it wouldn't be surprising if Avengers 4 was harangued by at least a few of these problems.
