Avengers: Infinity War Spoilers - 10 Scenes We 100% Know Are Happening

4. Thor's Nightmare Comes True

Remember that mind-bending sequence in Avengers: Age of Ultron where Thor visits the mystical pool and is assaulted by nightmarish visions?

Well, a set leak from Avengers: Infinity War suggests it may have been more than just a bad dream for the Thunder God.

In the vision, Thor encounters Heimdall, glassy-eyed and blinded, telling him that his fellow Asgardians are all dead. The scene was initially thought to take place in Asgard, but fans now know it was Hel, ruled by Ragnarok villain Hela.

There's firm evidence Infinity War is revisiting this setting as the Norse statue that was clearly visible in the Age of Ulton scene has been spotted against a green screen on the set of the next Avengers.

This hints at dire consequences for Heimdall and the rest of Asgard somewhere between Ragnarok and Infinity War, but anyone who's seen the trailer footage for the next Thor film will probably have guessed as much already.
