Kevin Feige Weighs In On How Closely AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Will Follow INFINITY GAUNTLET
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige reveals just how closely Avengers: Infinity War will follow the classic Infinity Gauntlet comic book featuring The Mad Titan wiping out the universe...
If Captain America: Civil War taught us anything, it's that Marvel Studios don't necessarily stick all that closely to the source material when adapting well-known event stories. Despite that, the majority of fans believe Avengers: Infinity War will borrow heavily from Infinity Gauntlet, an epic story which saw Thanos wipe out half the Universe when he finally got his hands on that all-powerful cosmic weapon.
When Collider caught up with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige to discuss Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, they asked the producer just how closely to that tale this movie will stick to which he cryptically replied: "[His motives] will be similar to what they were in the Infinity Gauntlet in various ways. I guess that’s all I can say about that." So, he wants to take over the universe. We saw that coming!
Still, it's interesting to wonder what exactly Feige might mean here. Will Thanos align himself with Death/Hela and punish his disobedient daughter Nebula while wiping out half the Galaxy? We'll have to wait and see, but be sure to let us know your thoughts in the comments section down below.
