The Rumour: With all the pre-release debate about where the Soul Stone actually resides, the Russo brothers will in fact pull an ultimate troll by saving its reveal for Avengers 4.

The Truth: The Soul Stone is actually instrumental in the second half of the movie and a lengthy scene is devoted to Thanos' (Josh Brolin) acquisition of it.

The object, described by its keeper Red Skull as "a certain wisdom", shows up mid-way through Infinity War, when Gamora (Zoe Salanda) takes Thanos to its location on the planet Vormir in order to save Nebula's (Karen Gillan) life.

It also clearly allows the bearer to cross some sort of existential plane, evidenced by Thanos talking to a vision of young Gamora after performing the snap.
