Avengers: Infinity War - Predicting The Fate Of Every Avenger

9. Falcon

Sam Wilson Falcon Captain America

When we last saw Falcon, he was about to be rescued from The Raft by Steve Rogers. So, when Infinity War picks up, he'll be on the run, not shacked up at the cosy Avengers facility but a still an Avenger, ready to fight should the call ring out.

And yes, Thanos will be that call - a rather urgent one. Falcon, like Iron Man, is just a dude in a metal suit who can fly, and while his ability to fly does allow him to swiftly evade enemy attacks, he's still incredibly vulnerable, to, you know, a Giant Infinity Gauntlet Of Doom. And bullets. Especially bullets.

What Will Happen To Him? Marvel won't want to kill off Falcon - Anthony Mackie is an extremely likeable star, and the studio would probably be aware of the backlash they would receive if they killed off one of their few black characters.

Falcon will make it to the end of the movie safely, and will become Steve's 'right-hand-man', so to speak, when Bucky bites the dust.

In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
