10 Major Plot Predictions For Avengers: Infinity War
2. Hela Will Have A Key Role
Marvel is keeping tight-lipped about Hela's involvement in Infinity War, but bringing Cate Blanchett's character over from Ragnarok makes all kinds of sense.
She could be the physical embodiment of death that Thanos has so much affection for - the only thing he has affection for, other than himself.
In Marvel Comics lore, Death is an entirely separate character, but having Hela fulfil this role makes sense from a creative standpoint.
The audience will be familiar with her following her debut in Ragnarok and, as already touched on, she could be the one to deliver Asgard's Infinity Gem to Thanos.
Blanchett is not included on the IMDB page for Infinity War, but it should be pointed out that nobody is listed on there as playing Death either.
Brace yourself for a creepy alien-on-god romance of sorts.
