At the end of Captain America: Civil War, we see that there are now, essentially, two Avengers teams, one sanctioned by the governments of the world, the other acting in secret, as Soldiers of Fortune, but only if you can find them (A-Team call back!)

Iron Man’s team is in the government facility and works at the bureaucratic behest of the UN.

Captain America’s team seems to be working out of Wakanda and completely on their own. With Hawkeye, Falcon, Winter Soldier, Black Panther and Ant-Man on the team, they are definitely poised to work more in shadows, with Scarlet Witch being the only one that could really stick out.

So, the question becomes — will the two Infinity War films be split up among the two separate teams?

Seems obvious to do it that way, yet the writers, Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus, have a different answer for you. In an interview with IGN, they said the following:

“When outlining [Infinity War], we certainly had those conversations. In the same way that in Civil War, not everyone has the same amount of scenes or lines. I think that you can assume that with so many characters [in Infinity War], we’ll have to be as rigorous. Certain characters will have larger stories and others will have smaller stories and hopefully they can flip in some cases – I know a few right off the top of my head, that have a small part [in one movie] and a bigger part [in the other movie]. The people in the background in one, might come to the foreground in the other. There are moments where every damn person who’s still alive will be in the same room and [those scenes] are just a nightmare to write because Marvel is very good about hiring good actors. It’s like the 15th person in the scene has two Oscars. So, yeah, it’s crazy.”

So there you have it. Essentially, both Avenging teams will be featured in each film in some way. The size of the character’s individual stories will ebb and flow depending on their usefulness in defeating Thanos, who will finally make it to Earth in the two films.
