Avengers 4: Predicting The Fate Of Every Avenger

His Avengers 4 Fate: Rhodey and Bucky are very similar. Both are best friends with a far more popular and powerful Avenger, both have similar abilities to that Avenger, and both have more or less run out of steam in the story department.

Rhodey was an integral part of the Iron Man trilogy, but since then, he hasn't really done anything of note, besides being blasted out of the sky by Vision. He feels like the perfect candidate to be killed off, but then again, Marvel just gave him a near-death accident in Civil War; to actually off him so soon would feel a little predictable.

But because he's been so underused in recent movies, he's poised to take on a much bigger role within the MCU. Avengers 4 may be the end of Tony Stark's Iron Man, so someone has to fill that snarky, maverick, metal-suited void, right? The newest iteration of the Avengers team could use someone like Rhodey on their side.

So, the character will survive Avengers 4, and because of his combat skills, tactical expertise and all-round experience, he'll continue Avenging for the foreseeable future.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
