Avengers: Infinity War - 13 Big Questions From Everything We Know So Far

12. What Happens To Thor?

This question is really twofold.

Firstly, there's the not-so-small matter of what the hell (or should that be Hel?) happens to Thor in Ragnarok, for him to be floating unconscious through space in Avengers: Infinity War. The footage descriptions outline that he is found by the Guardians, eventually waking up wondering what on Asgard is going on. Does this mean he actually loses Ragnarok? And just how well will he work together with the Guardians?

Secondly, and even more pertinently, there's the question of what happens to Thor in this movie. He is one of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe - what with being a God and all - so it makes sense he'd be part of a big fight scene with Thanos. However, it doesn't sound like things go well for the God of Thunder, with the description explaining: "Thanos grabs Thor's head and squeezes."

That does not sound like fun, although it's unlikely they'd be given away the moment Thor dies here - so what does happen when Thanos decides to play the Mountain to Thor's Red Viper?
