Avengers: Infinity War is still a long way off, but the Russo Brothers are clearly already thinking over what they want to bring to the table for the final movie in Marvel's Phase 3. At a Q&A to promote the release of Avengers: Age of Ultron yesterday, producer Jeremy Latcham had this to say about the kind of research the Captain America: The Winter Soldier duo are currently doing. "I was in an Infinity War meeting with the Russos earlier today and there are really old Starlin stuff, there's really new Hickman stuff, there's all kinds of stuff sitting on this table," Latcham revealed. "And it's really kind of chaotic, like 'Oh, there's a great issue here. There's a great moment here. Let's talk about all of them. Let's make sure we are looking at everything.'  I think that's part of what's fun, it doesn't matter when it was written, in the books, if it's great it's great and we want to find a way to put it into the movie. Part of the job. Part of the fun." Which moments from Jim Starlin and Jonathan Hickman's runs would you like to see on the big screen? Let us know below...

Jim Starlin, good start for any movie taking influence from Cosmic Marvel if you ask me.

If it pertains to Thanos 9 times out of 10, it's from a story by Starlin!

As soon as I saw that they were reading the Hickman stuff, my mind went to...THE BLACK ORDER!!!

I'd be lying if I didn't say am worried about Infinity War. Same with Justice League. Directors that stay in a franchise too long tend not to keep up with quality. Of course it's not always the case....but lately it has been.

This site should just post the video of the interview instead of mining it.

Nevertheless very excited for IF

Just give me that scene where Thanos freezes time and walks around the Marvel heroes frozen in time, in mid attack, talking about how boring and easy this fight is going to be.


Just please give me that scene.

Good point. Infinity War may too cosmic for them and the writers. We shall see.

I hope they put some more money toward visuals (I don't just mean CGI or VFX). The Russos' preferred cinematography is great for TWS and Civil War, but Infinity War needs someone who can make it look spectacular and epic and grand.

Id say these are gonna be the major influences...

1. Infinity Gauntlet

2. Thanos Quest

3. Infinity

5. Thanos Imperative

I hope they stick with Starlin because Hickman's Infinity was a clusterf***** disaster.
