AVENGERS: ENDGAME: Everything The New Posters Tell Us About The Marvel Studios Movie - SPOILERS

Earlier today, Marvel Studios released 32 new character posters for Avengers: Endgame, and we're now taking a closer look at them to delve into what they tell us about the highly anticipated movie...

With just a month to go until Avengers: Endgame arrives in theaters, Marvel Studios chose today to release 32 character posters and a new featurette. Now, we're taking a much closer look at the former to figure out what exactly they tell us about what's in store for fans when April 26th finally arrives. 

While you may not think that much information can be gleaned from a series of one-sheets, they actually contained some big surprises, and have definitely left us with an awful lot to think about. 

Now that we know the plan is to #AvengeTheFallen, we can probably expect the marketing campaign to continue playing out over the coming weeks, and it's very exciting to think about what that could entail, especially as Avengers: Endgame is surrounded with such a great deal of secrecy.

So, to check out this breakdown, be sure to click on the "View List" button down below. 

Valkyrie Is Alive And In The Movie



We've suspected that this might be the case for a while now but the posters confirm that not only is Valkyrie alive, but she's also going to factor into Avengers: Endgame somehow.

After Tessa Thompson's scene stealing performance in Thor: Raganrok, fans were disappointed to see that she didn't make it into Avengers: Infinity War, so it's going to be a lot of fun to watch her join the fight against Thanos (with any luck, Korg will also return). 

The extent of her role remains to be seen, but here's hoping it ends up being somewhat significant.
 

Shuri Is Among The Dead



The last time we saw Shuri, she had been taken down by Corvus Glaive as he attempted to retrieve the Mind Stone from The Vision's forehead. While that member of The Black Order clearly didn't kill T'Challa's sister, her fate has very much been up in the air since, and it's now clear that she was dusted alongside the King of Wakanda. 

This works on a number of levels; for starters, M'Baku is more than likely the new King and with Shuri no longer around, it will be up to original Avengers Tony Stark and Bruce Banner to come up with a solution to bring an end to the Mad Titan once and for all. 
 

Pepper Potts And Happy Hogan Will Return



When Iron Man finds his way back to Earth, he will have plenty of allies because both Pepper Potts and Happy Hogan are alive and well. Honestly, that's not a huge surprise because it's been obvious that Rescue will factor into proceedings for ages now, but Happy's role is a little harder to figure out.

Chances are, he'll just have a relatively minor role, but we might also get to see his reaction to what happened, After all, he grew fond of Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Homecoming and that loss will likely have hit him hard. 
 

Is Wong The New Sorcerer Supreme?



At the end of Avengers: Infinity War, Doctor Strange was obviously among those who perished after Thanos snapped his fingers and wiped out half the universe. Thanos is in possession of the Time Stone, but the Sanctum Sanctorum still needs someone to protect it and it seems as if that's a role that will now fall to Wong. 

Benedict Wong's name was front and centre on the recently released poster so his return isn't a shock, and seeing as we know Benedict Cumberbatch had to use a stand-in for many of his scenes due to his busy schedule, it makes sense that Marvel would put the focus on a new Sorcerer Supreme for at least some of this adventure.
 

Loki Is Definitely Dead



Unless Marvel Studios is trying to misdirect us (and we really don't think they are), then Loki didn't find a way to escape his murder at the hands of Thanos and will not factor into this movie...well, not in the present day, anyway!

Set photos have shown flashbacks to the events of The Avengers with the God of Mischief in S.H.I.E.L.D. custody, and whether that comes down to time-travel or something else, we're definitely going to see more of Loki - even if it isn't in the present day version of the villain we've grown accustomed to in recent years. 
 

Will All Of The "Fallen" Return?



Marvel Studios released sixteen coloured posters and sixteen in black and white with, as we noted above, the key difference being that the first half are alive and the others are dead. 

There are some notable omissions (Hank Pym, Maria Hill, and more have all failed to make the cut) but should we take the inclusion of characters like Gamora and even Loki as an indication that they will also return if Earth's Mightiest Heroes succeed in stopping Thanos? 

Their deaths were definitive and unrelated to the snap, so it's currently pretty tricky to come up with an explanation for how undoing that moment would also lead to their resurrections. 
 

There's No Sign Of Thanos



Considering the fact that Avengers: Infinity War ended with a smiling Thanos watching the sun rise over a "grateful" universe, it's surprising just how little we've seen of the villain in marketing materials for Avengers: Endgame

With that in mind, he's nowhere to be seen in these character posters as Marvel clearly decided to instead keep the spotlight on the heroes and the fact they finally get do some Avenging on behalf of those that were taken from them when the Mad Titan snapped his fingers. 
 

Still No Sign Of The Hulk



While we've seen The Hulk in action figure form and on various pieces of promotional material, there's still no sign of the Jade Giant in officially released content like this.

Instead, Bruce Banner is being put front and centre and that points to Marvel choosing to handle the Green Goliath's return in a somewhat surprising manner (which makes sense when he's seemingly taken on the Professor Hulk persona). Even so, you'd think he would have been shown here in some form, but then none of the heroes have their masks on for some reason!
 

"Avenge The Fallen"



This tagline is interesting for a number of reasons, and it may at least shed some light on what that mysterious mission the heroes are embarking on will entail. 

While we all think that they're going to travel back in time to try to resurrect everyone, what if it's as simple as making Thanos pay for what he did before an alternative solution becomes clear? 

Honestly, that may not be a question we get an answer to until April 26th rolls around...

I hope Shuri is just missing and working on a new Vision. It probably won't happen, but it would be cool

@ThorPoochie - Where would you put all those resources tho? If you make endless resources then you'd need endless planets to store it on, then gravitational pulls and black holes and a bunch of other science shit...nah just kill half it's way simpler plus...

I hadn't thought about Wong being the new Sorcerer Supreme, but I think it's also important to note that Strange has never been formally given that title. Sad to see Shuri was dusted. I was really looking forward to a round table of science folks with her, Tony, Bruce, Rocket, Jane, Ellen Cho and Betty among others.

I still think the ace up their sleeve is Vision still being alive. You don't spend that much dialogue explaining how he could survive only to drop him completely

The reason Thanos isn’t being shown much is there’s a secondary more powerful villain. I know who it is. A lot of pants will be shat.

Spoilers/ Plot twist: When they go back time, they create an opportune paradox in the fact one person dies in the past but they fix the future leading to the fact that if that one person does not die then the future can’t be fixed... the whole 1 vs Many argument.

This also leads to the creation of The Illuminati to help curve any potential upcoming threats domestic or galatic.

Endgame is the story of the Avengers. Thanos won’t be in it nearly as much

They're not really spoilers at all Josh. Sure we all know who survived onscreen. We all saw who was dusted. Just because Valkyrie is there and in colour, doesnt meant we know for sure, for fact, that she is in this movie. Same with Happy. Same with Shuri. Sure, the theme is there, colour = alive, grey = dead, but last I checked, none of use have seen the movie yet.

@JoshWilding - Something pretty cool someone noticed on reddit in the 3D trailer: (Possible Spoilers)

Switch to 2D and it's still visible. At 1:35 when Hawkeyes running from an explosion, you can see Outrider limbs explode around him. Neat find.
