News culture “I Hear Rumors”: Could Marvel’s Biggest Villain Return to the MCU?

Grab ’em nice

“Avengers Endgame” may have marked a real turning point in the famous Marvel Cinematic Universe: after the events that took place there, a whole s tory arc was completed, which had been built up little by little for almost fifteen years. with the death of Thanos, but also those of several superheroes

(except Captain America who has decided to retire).

Additionally, the MCU has struggled to get back on track since then: The iconic figures who have now disappeared are sorely missed and those who are supposed to replace them still have a lot of work to do to establish themselves. Disney itself didn’t really manage its business well, as the overproduction of films and series was not always successful, which led to a certain general fatigue among the audience.

There are some solid cards to play, like the arrival of the X-Men, the Fantastic Four or more violent worksbut yes, some rumors speak of a return of several big names… including Thanos.

Crazy Titouan

Bringing Thanos back into the MCU is a risky bet: Let’s say it has to make sense and not be rushed. Playing on nostalgia for a simple financial goal has its limits, and the public knows it: poorly executing this comeback would not only be a final blow to the expanded universe, but also a true admission of failure. Rest assured, nothing has been confirmed at the moment and These are just rumors… rumors that Josh Brolin, Thanos’ interpreter, has heard about.

“You know, I’ve heard through the grapevine that they’re bringing Thanos back into the MCU.”

the actor admits during his promotional tour for Dune Part II, in which he appears. “And there’s the What If…? series, but it’s a different kind of Thanos. But I don’t know if they’ll bring him back to the Marvel world.”he says a little hesitantly.

“What if…?” is an animated series integrated into the MCU that now has two seasons under its belt, the last of which appeared in December 2023. Their concept is based entirely on the multiverse and allows us to discover parallel worlds in which certain events did not take place as we saw them: for example, We can see Thanos turning into a zombie, or a universe where Thanos doesn’t go looking for the Infinity Stones.

So a priori: “What if…?” would be the only legitimate way to bring Thanos back into the MCU, even if Josh Brolin admits that it’s not the same “type of Thanos”.

However, with the multiverse’s countless theories, many doors are open for any character to return: you should never say never, and that’s exactly what Chris Evans said years ago about a Captain America comeback.
