Avengers: Infinity War - 11 Things That Definitely Won't Happen

5. Thanos Brutally Kills All Of These Characters

With such immense power at his fingertips - or more specifically his knuckles - Thanos is an almost unstoppable force, and the heroes of Marvel Comics are no match for him.

He, along with his own created companion Terraxia, kill off most of the well-known characters going: Captain America is vanquished with a backhand, Iron Man is decapitated, Spider-Man is beaten to death, Vision's insides are ripped out, Thor is turned to glass and shattered, and Scarlet Witch has her powers turned against her.

It's reasonable to expect that we might see a couple of heroes die in this movie, but hard to believe all of them will, and certainly not in such brutal fashion. The Cap one is the only death that seems possible (to a degree), but the others aren't ones you'd expect Marvel to put on screen.

It goes further when you consider the characters who can't even be in the movie that Thanos kills: Nova, She-Hulk, Wolverine, Cyclops - none of them will be appearing here, and it's hard to imagine Thanos rocking up a body count high enough that there could even be replacements for their deaths.
