10 Things You Need To Know About Avengers: Infinity War

One of the most frustrating aspects of the MCU so far is how little we've seen of Thanos since his debut in 2012's The Avengers, showing up for a scene here and there, but so far having screen time totaling just three minutes.

Thankfully, one of Infinity War's co-writers, Christopher Markus, confirmed that Thanos won't be conspicuously absent in this movie, and will figure heavily in the movie's first act. Markus said, "We don’t get an element of surprise. Everyone knows he’s coming...You can count on a lot of scenes where we illuminate a lot about him very early.”

Considering how much the big purple guy needs to make up for lost time, this can only be a great thing.
