10 Bold Predictions About Every Upcoming MCU Movie

Marvel fans have been looking to Thor: Ragnarok for answers regarding the whereabouts of the Soul Stone, tipping Heimdall and Odin as its two most likely custodians, but there's a good reason why Asgard is the last place it will turn up.

Granted, the Odin and Heimdall theories are compelling, but isn't the whole reason the Asgardians handed the Reality Stone to the Collector because keeping two of these gems in the same place is too risky?

A more likely location for the final stone is Wakanda, and Black Panther could be the movie to reveal this and solve the mystery once and for all.

So, why would the elusive gem be in T'Challa's country? Well, reports suggest that Thanos and his Black Order will invade Wakanda during the events of Infinity War. Why risk the casualties if there wasn't something important there that he needs?

Moreover, it's clear the high-tech nation is tied to something alien. It flourishes as a result of a meteor strike which scattered Vibranium across the land, but what if it scattered something else there too? A certain cosmic stone, for instance.

Although this would be a radical departure from the comic books, it's one that would make sense. By putting the Soul Stone in Wakanda, Marvel would forge closer ties between Black Panther and the other movies and set up Infinity War in one fell swoop.
