MCU: 10 Marvel Characters Who Will Definitely Die In Phase 3

10. Yondu

Why He Has To Die

Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2 is set to answer the question of Peter Quill's fatherhood with the appearance of Kurt Russell as Ego The Living Planet, and that probably spells disaster for the character who basically brought him up in his absence. In other words, Yondu is superfluous right up until the point Star-Lord realises he actually had a father all along.

The space pirate will also be joining the good guys, and nothing says dead meat character like one who sees the error of his evil ways and tries to atone. It'll be a shame too, but he's a goner.

When It'll Happen

Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2. Near the end - just before the climactic battle sees Star-Lord take down the big bad in a fury in response.

How He'll Die

Saving his "son" Quill, probably in the absence (or ignorance) of his real father Ego, to give Yondu that hero moment he's clearly craving by joining the good guys.
