Marvel Cinematic Universe: 10 Twists No One Will See Coming
6. Nebula Will Kill Thanos
Although Thanos has the chops to survive Infinity War, he's bound to go down eventually, and the character which lands that killer blow might surprise a few people.
It would be all too obvious having Cap or Iron Man have the final say because they're the most iconic, or Vision being the difference because he's the most powerful.
Thanos's eventual defeat, which will likely come at some point in the as-yet untitled Avengers 4, will be the result of a team effort, an alliance between Earth's Mightiest Heroes and the Guardians of the Galaxy, but Nebula will deliver the death blow.
The cosmic assassin's sole motivation is to take down her adoptive father, and who can blame her after he gradually replaced most of her body parts with machinery?
Nebula has more reasons than most for wanting Thanos dead and having her ultimately defeat him would be a satisfying, and surprising, conclusion to the Mad Titan's arc.
It would also pave the way for Karen Gillan's Smurf-coloured anti-heroine to officially become a Guardian of the Galaxy ahead of the team's third outing.
