Marvel fans still have a lot to look forward to inPhase 3of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. No matter what is on the horizon though, we will always be looking forward to the nextAvengersinstallment, which in this case isAvengers: Infinity War. We can start to officially get excited, because the movie has officially started filming in Atlanta. At least according to a pretty reliable source.
The Atlanta Filming Twitter account has posted an update claiming thatAvengers: Infinity Warstarted filming a couple of weeks ago and that certain cast members have been spotted on set. Unfortunately, the update didn’t come with any photos, but the account claims that shooting started on the 7th and that he knows more, but didn’t want to say anything else, as to not spoil anything. Here is all of what the account had to say.
“I think I forgot to post this, but #AvengersInfinityWar started filming two weeks ago. This is what I know: Some cast is here. Part 1 started on the 7th.Almost 0% chance I will get photos that don’t look like lego people. Actually, I know a lot more than that. But, no spoilers. The set tile is grey though.”
This may not be coming directly from the mouths of those atMarvel Studios, but Atlanta Filming has been very reliable in terms of reporting MCU related info in the past. Marvel has done a lot of filming in Atlanta previously, most recently onSpider-Man: Homecoming. Atlanta Filming broke quite a bit of news from that set as well, so even though this isn’t necessarily official confirmation it seems like a safe bet thatThe Russo Brothershave started work onAvengers: Infinity War, which will be shooting back-to-back withAvengers 4, which doesn’t currently have a title. At one point, it was being billed asAvengers: Infinity War Part 1andAvengers: Infinity War: Part 2. That changed a couple of months ago.
Avengers: Infinity Warand the now untitledAvengers 4are going to be game changers for the MCU. Iron Man, Captain America and the gang are going to be dealing withThanos(finally) and theInfinity Gauntletwill be in play. There will be consequences and we can assume some casualties. But who or what will ultimately be at stake? It is fairly safe to say “everything” seems like a safe bet.
There hasn’t been a lot of confirmed cast members forAvengers: Infinity Waryet, but we know thatJosh Brolinwill finally get some real screen time as Thanos and thatBenedict Cumberbatchis going to reprise his role asDoctor Strange. TheGuardians of the Galaxywill be showing up. It is a safe bet that pretty much anyone who is even tangentially related toThe Avengerswill at least show up in the movie, though.Avengers: Infinity Waris set for release on July 13, 2025, with the untitledAvengers 4set to come out a year later on July 31, 2025.
