Avengers: Infinity War - 15 New Details Marvel Just Revealed

10. The Battle On Wakanda (With Bucky)

As part of the montage of shots featured in the D23, we got a shot that confirmed what was already assumed when it was revealed that members of the Dora Milaje and Black Panther's supporting cast were confirmed for Infinity War: the film is going to Wakanda.

The brief glimpse apparently showed the Wakandan army and Bucky ready to fight, which suggests a number of intriguing things. Firstly, that Bucky comes out of the deep freeze again (probably in Black Panther, since there won't be enough spare establishing time in Infinity War), and that the Wakandans react positively enough to him to embrace him as one of their own. They must change their feelings about outsiders for him to join their army.

And then there's the implication of why we'd go to Wakanda for a pitched battle scene at all. That means there's an Infinity Stone there. So either a Stone is involved in the Black Panther plot, or one is sent there for protection at some point before Infinity War (perhaps as an Infinity War prologue or a Black Panther post-credits scene?) All very intriguing.
