Casting is underway for Marvel's much-awaited film, Avengers: Infinity War Part 1, as auditions are being held for the evil character, Magus. Also, Beyonce might be making an appearance in MCU as she is being courted to play a role in the film. Several plot theories have surfaced about the film's possible plot.

Another evil character might plague the MCU in Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 as auditions are under way in Los Angeles, California for lead and supporting roles, including that of Magus. In the comics, Magus is the evil alter-ego of Adam Warlock. Magus is said to be playing a big role in the movie, and will separate from Warlocks body. He will later assemble the Infinity Gauntlet and create doppelgangers of the heroes.

Also, another appearance expected in MCU is that of Beyonce, as she is reportedly being considered to play a role in Avengers: Infinity War Part 1. A senior Disney executive said that Beyonce would be a great addition to the MCU, "We would love to have Beyonce on board, almost certainly as a newcomer to the screen from Marvel's existing catalogue of comic book characters."

Possible characters for Beyonce are Boom-Boom (Tabitha Smith), Tigra (Greer Grant Nelson), and/or Blink.

Although the film is still a couple of years away, several theories have surfaced as to the possible direction MCU might be heading. Some speculate that The Vision might die in Infinity War as he has one of the powerful Infinity Stones which is currently on his forehead.

Reports also suggest that Spider-Man might make an appearance after Marvel Studios got the rights of the character from Sony. Spidey is rumored to help the Avengers in facing Thanos who will bring destruction using the Infinity Gauntlet. Spider-Man will reportedly retrieve the infinity Gauntlet and will use it to undo all the damage. After everything, only Spider-Man and Thanos will reportedly remember all the events that happened.

Avengers: Infinity War is set to be directed by Anthony and Joe Russo while the screenplay will be by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. It had been slated for release on May 04, 2018.
