Avengers: Infinity War - 14 Plot Hints You Might Have Missed

3. Thanos Kills The Collector

If Thanos wants to acquire all six Infinity Stones, he's going to need to visit The Collector (Benicio del Toro) sooner or later, and though leaked footage revealed months ago that the two do have a confrontation in Infinity War, it remains to be seen what The Collector's actual fate will be.

Thanos will obviously visit his base on Knowhere and take the Reality Stone (the Aether) from him by force, but his fate? Not so certain. If the movie is going to establish Thanos as a ruthless, Terminator-like tyrant - which it most certainly will - then it's hard to believe from our knowledge of this scene that he would dare leave The Collector alive.
