Avengers: Every Single Deleted Scene From Endgame & Infinity War
37. Nova's Warning
Losing the battle of Xandar was huge enough, but not even that could compare to what was originally supposed to come next.
As revealed by Brandon Davis during the quarantine watch party - and subsequently confirmed by Christopher McFeely himself - Marvel Comics' Richard Rider (a.k.a. Nova) was supposed to make his MCU debut shortly after this, being the one to warn everyone of Thanos' impending arrival.
McFeely revealed that it was a very early idea that was scrapped because they had too many new characters and, after the Xandar sequence was deleted, his arrival simply wouldn't have made sense.
Still though, one can dream right?
