Avengers: Infinity War - Every Death Ranked Worst To Best

21. Maria Hill

Cause of Death: Disintegrated.

Maria Hill's (Cobie Smulders) demise in the film's post-credits scene lacks the impact of the pre-credits disintegrations for two reasons: it's inevitable the moment the scene begins, and given how infrequently she's appeared in the MCU, the audience isn't really attached to the character at all.

While Nick Fury's (Samuel L. Jackson) death moments later at least had a few fun kicks to it, Maria turning to dust was just something that happened. It was by far the least affecting of all the disintegrations, memorable only for Fury's reaction to it and what follows.

On the other hand, she's one of the few snap-related deaths that could actually stick and not screw up Marvel's franchise plans.
