In just a couple of weeks, fans around the world will pack into theaters to watch the new Marvel film Avengers: Infinity War. Trust me, the hairs on our arms are standing up just like Peter Parker’s (Tom Holland). Until that night, we have to rely on these awesome TV spots to get us through.
Wakanda is just one of the major sites of the war, although it hasn’t been revealed what is in Wakanda that Thanos (Josh Brolin) wants. If you recall at the end of Black Panther, King T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) opened up their borders and technology to the world. Okoye (Danai Gurira) playfully states that she thought he meant he was bringing in a Starbucks. Ha!
“Dread it, run from it. The end is near.” Thanos is always straight to the point. We see him set the first Infinity Stone into the gauntlet as several of our heroes look around in fear. Thanos can pretty much go wherever he chooses. With help from the Black Order, Thanos is determined to find the Infinity Stones. And he destroy anyone who stands in his way.

The first stone appears to be the Tesseract (blue). Loki (Tom Hiddleston) took it from Asgard in Thor: Ragnarok. Vision (Paul Bettany) has the Mind Stone (yellow), Doctor Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) has the Time Stone (green), Nova Corp is guarding the Power Stone (purple), and the Collector (Benecio Del Toro) obtained the Aether (red stone) in Thor: The Dark World. That leaves the Soul Stone. Could it be in Wakanda?
So who is where? T’Challa and the Dora Milaje welcome Captain America/Steve Rogers (Chris Evans), Black Widow/Natasha Romanov (Scarlett Johansson), Falcon/Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen), and the Hulkbuster to Wakanda. Bucky Buchanan (Sebastian Stan) has been in Wakanda since the end of Captain America: Civil War. Bucky and Steve are reunited, but the smiles turn to looks of determination. The Wakandans, behind T’Challa, chant in preparation for war. T’Challa reminds his people, “Today we don’t fight for one life, we fight for all of them.”
Iron Man/Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), The Hulk/Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), Doctor Strange, Spider-Man/Peter Parker, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and the Guardians of the Galaxy appear to be in New York. We’ve seen Tony talking strategy with all of these figures in other trailers. Of course Starlord/Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) contested Tony’s ideas, but it looks like they just might get it together enough to fight Thanos’ forces.
There are so many shots of all of the Avengers fighting. Black Panther‘s favorite little sister Shuri (Letitia Wright) gets into the action as well. This war is going to be so crazy. I am a little worried for Vision and Doctor Strange though. They posses two of the stones and Vision could die if his removed. I just hate watching my heroes suffer.
Check out the new TV Spot below!
Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk and the rest of the Avengers unite to battle their most powerful enemy yet — the evil Thanos. On a mission to collect all six Infinity Stones, Thanos plans to use the artifacts to inflict his twisted will on reality. The fate of the planet and existence itself has never been more uncertain as everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment.
Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War opens in theaters on April 27, 2018!
