Joss Whedon, the man who gave us The Avengers, the best superhero movie ever is now incharge of MCU phase 2 and is confirmed to direct Avengers 2. While he is a brilliant filmmaker he is also known for killing off characters especially the fan favorite ones. In Avengers he let Coulson die, while people still wish him to come back as Vision in near future. Who it can be in the Sequel.
1. Maria Hill: Lets be honest, Maria Hill has no actual role or point of command on SHIELD right now. She might get a part in upcoming SHIELD movie but we cannot deny the possibility of her death in the sequel.
Her Death will help take someone else may be Miss Marvel or Sharon Carter take charge and her gap could be filled by Jessica Drew and/or Sam Wilson adding more super powered team members on the roster.
2. Nick Fury: I know, for the fact Nick Fury never dies, but think of this scenario,he simply escapes and the one who dies is his LMD like in Nick Fury's Secret Wars. He already has pissed off the council and faking his own death would be a perfect way to get off their radar. Also like in comics and Avengers: EMH he disappears to keep tabs on secret invasion, that we can find out doing when Phase 3 begins.
Also Robert Downey Jr. is getting old. Perfect chance for him to step as SHIELD director. He is a fan favorite and Marvel would be a fool if they let him go.
3. Ant Man: Its not only Hank Pym we are talking about. Ant Man movie is rumored to have both Hank Pym and Scott Lang. Both died in comics are some point of time. Hank Pym even died in Ultimates 2 so either of them dying can be a possibility. The roster cannot be kept crowded, so either of them will have to depart for new members to join in.
Also Hank faked his own death to return as Yellowjacket, so what if he does that in case Marvel is planning for Ultron Saga in the sequel he can do this to escape taking everything as his responsibility.
4. Wasp: Janet for sure will debut along side Hank Pym in Ant Man movie. Wasp was a fan favorite original character who Marvel killed. Also Wasp's power is quite negligible in front of someone like Thanos, that makes her chances too high. Also her death will result will make Hank Pym's character even Dark for a sequel.
5. Hulk: I am not talking about Hulk actually dying here, who can think of that. Just imagine Hulk kicking Thanos' butt in a fight and as a last resort he uses Time stone and sends him to some other dimension/Planet. People on this side think that Thanos killed him, only to find out Later that Hulk woke up on another planet.
Marvel executives said earlier in interviews how they were interested in making a Planet Hulk movie. This can be the perfect chance to start phase 3 with.
6. Captain America: This is a far fetched I am talking about. Like in Civil War a mind control Agent 13 kills him, only to turn out that he is stuck in some time loop. By this time Bucky takes mantel of Captain America. So for the Captain America 3 we'll have a new Star Spangled Man who sets out on a mission to bring back Steve Rogers. This can also be done by Thanos by using one of his stones.
Who else do you think is on the Whedon's Death Radar right now? Hope you liked this article.
