Avengers 4: 11 Things That MUST Happen

6. Valkyrie, Korg & Miek Return

Following Infinity War's opening scene, where Thanos annihilates the Asgardian refugee ship and kills both Heimdall and Loki, fans were left desperately wondering what happened to fellow passengers Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and Miek.

After all, Valkyrie and Korg were by far two of the best-received aspects of Thor: Ragnarok, and killing them off so unceremoniously would make no sense at all.

Joe Russo has since implied that the trio probably escaped in rescue pods deployed before Thanos staged his attack, yet that sadly doesn't mean they're going to appear in Avengers 4.

Neither Thompson nor Waititi have been formally credited as of yet, and while that means incredibly little in the hyper-secretive world of the MCU, this could mean that they won't show up again until the next Thor movie.

Considering the glorious comic potential in these characters hanging out with the Guardians of the Galaxy in particular - a Korg-Rocket chit-chat would bring the house down - it'd be a majorly missed opportunity to bench them until further notice.
