The Avengers are set to reunite in the big screen as they try to stop the incessantly evil Thanos in Avengers Infinity War Part 1. New claims suggest that the combined budget of the films would amount to 1 billion while plot speculations state that Vision could serve as MCU's Adam Warlock.
With the block buster success of Avengers: Age of Ultron earning more than $1.4 billion in the box office, Comic Book reported about Marvel eyeing on making Infinity Wars films big with a combined budget of $1 billion. This suggests that more or less a good $500 million could be slated for each film.
However, according to the trade, the rumors also seem incongruous when it further stated that the Avengers Infinity War Part 1 does not have a script yet since a budget cannot be made without a script. Thus, until an official statement is released by Marvel, these rumors must be taken with a grain of salt.
Meanwhile, Screen Rant reported that Vision could serve as Adam Warlock in the MCU. Warlock was notable in the comics especially in battling Thanos. Vision could reportedly appear in movies Guardians of Galaxy 2 and Thor: Ragnarok which would allow Scarlet Witch to explore on MCU's mystical side or even team up with Doctor Strange. If he appears in Guardians of Galaxy 2, he could be the Avenger that the guardians are set to meet in the MCU which was hinted by director James Gunn.
Avengers Infinity War Parts 1 and 2 are expected to bring changes in the MCU and could be the end of some members of the Avengers. As reported by Franchise Herald, producer Jeremy Latchman teased about these changes in the superhero team upon saying that Phase 3 will be the end of a part of MCU but also serves as the preparation for Phase 4.
Latchman also added that although the roster of Avengers will change, its ideas and ideals will remain. "But the ideas and ideals that make The Avengers still exist, and I think thats part of what makes this culmination will be: we're seeing this version of the team doing this thing to save this universe, this galaxy, however you want to put it, and we'll see where this goes. So its not the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it will be the end of part of it for sure. We're still trying to sort out which parts", he said.
Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 is set to be directed by Anthony and Joe Russo. It is written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. The film's official plot is currently under wraps, but more details will be revealed as it nears its May 04, 2018 playdate.
