Infinity Saga: 10 Unresolved Plot Points From MCU's Phases 1-3
3. Do The Avengers Know That Agent Coulson Survived?
In The Avengers, beloved breakout character Agent Coulson was killed by Loki. S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury used that to bring Earth's Mightiest Heroes together, but the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series saw him use Kree technology to resurrect Coulson and after dying (again), he's now a Life Model Decoy.
After a lot of early references to the wider MCU, it's become clear in recent years that what happens in this TV show doesn't really matter. Captain Marvel even brought Coulson back in the past, and made no sort of references to his future as the new Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. on the small screen.
The point is, though, that Coulson has spent years running around on various adventures, so how could The Avengers not know? It's crazy to think that they've never crossed paths or caught wind of what he's up to, and it's legitimately surprising that this has never been addressed in a movie.
Heading into Phase 4, and with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. about to air its final season, this has to be something we get more intel on in the next few years as a reunion is long overdue at this stage.
