Avengers 4 Trailer Decoded: Every Character Analysed & Explored

10. Who We Didn't See

Considering the fact that the herd was thinned massively when Thanos snapped, you'd have thought that the trailer would focus on ALL of the survivors in equal measure, but there are actually some notable absences.

In the interest of focusing only on the "first Avengers" (other than Ant-Man, of course), there's no place in the trailer for Rocket Raccoon, Okoye, M'Baku or War Machine (who arguably should count as a first wave veteran, to be honest).

Okoye and M'Baku are probably in Wakanda, with the latter ruling now in the absence of both T'Challa and Shuri, War Machine is likely to be at the Avengers facility but off screen, since he's going to be a big part of the hero collective... It's Rocket who is most intriguing.

He was set up as an isolated figure into Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2, who struggled to make real family connections until the end, but then who found his place. Having that torn away from him again must have been particularly devastating and he may have gone underground and rogue. It could be that he's with Thor (wherever he is), but you could definitely see him off somewhere on his own.
