Avengers 4: Endgame Trailer Breakdown - 12 Things You Need To See
11. Thanos Has Hung Up His Armour
Marvel Studios
Infuriating, but Avengers 4 trailer also confirmed that Thanos has indeed gotten his happy ending, and has been relaxing in an alien paradise with his armour positioned in a scarecrow-like fashion over his crops.
We still don't know what role the Mad Titan will play in Avengers 4 (rumours that another villain could appear have circulated recently), but there's no doubt he'll play an integral part in the story, and that the Avengers will come face to face with him once again at some point.
Also interesting to note is that Thanos' armour being positioned in that fashion is a callback to the comics. Fans won't need reminding of how much Infinity War's story took from the comic of the same name, and with this shot here, the Russo bros. have confirmed that Thanos is living out his farming fantasies guilt-free.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
