MCU: 10 Phase 3 Rumours That Turned Out To Be Bull
1. Captain America Will Die In Infinity War
Rumours of Captain America’s death in the MCU started to swirl back when Phase 3’s inaugural movie Captain America: Civil War was about to be released which made total sense since the Civil War storyline in the comics ended with his assassination.
When that never happened, the rumour mill moved the goalposts and asserted he would definitely, 100% not make it out of Infinity War alive, leaving either Bucky Barnes or Falcon to assume his mantle.
Of course, it wasn’t Captain America that Infinity War killed off, but Peter Quill. And Doctor Strange. And Bucky Barnes … oh, and Groot and Spidey too.
Too soon? Too soon.
Captain America groupies shouldn’t get too comfortable though. With Chris Evans’ Marvel contract set to come to an end in the very near future it’s likely that Captain America will die in the concluding part of Infinity War when it’s released next year.
... Probably.
