Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 may not tell one big story over two parts but the fact that Ant-Man and The Wasp and Captain Marvel come out between them definitely complicates matters. Why are Scott Lang and Hope Van Dyne off doing their own thing after Thanos has attacked the Earth and how much of an impact will Carol Danvers' 90s set adventure have on what's to come in Avengers 4?
We're just going to have to wait and see but writers Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus have now shed at least a little light on how they're going about handling being part of a shared universe.
"You can’t make them overly dependent on each other," Markus explains, "and yet you still want to have this bloodstream flowing through the universe." McFeely elaborates on that, by adding: "Peyton Reed and his group of writers are going to make whatever movie they want. We had very small requests like, “It would be great if right there that person was—is that okay? Good?” You always make the best movie you can. Same thing with Black Panther and same thing with Captain Marvel."
They’re gonna make the movies they’re gonna make and in this unique case, very small tiny suggestions for beginnings and endings like that," he concluded. This makes a lot of sense but is unlikely to stop fans from wondering how Ant-Man and The Wasp and Captain Marvel will deal with the fallout of Infinity War and inform what comes next.
