Do you think the MCU will, one day, bring back Thanos ?

[BringBackSonics]

Not in my lifetime.

 

[Maple]

They've introduced the multiverse and infinite versions of each of the characters, so they can bring back whoever they want.

Death and any sense of permanence has really been lost with the multiverse stuff. It started with End Game and is now expanding quickly with Loki.

 

[kurahador]

Most definitely. They gonna start with Thanos D+ miniseries building up to something like Doom.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I think it's inevitable (no pun intended) even if it's just flashbacks or something. Thanos has entered the movie canon of iconic villains alongside Darth Vader and the Joker. You wouldn't even need Brolin if it came down to it.

Yes.

He is inevitable (pun intended).

Eventually, he'll show back up in one form or another. Sage advice for his son Thane maybe? Fodder for Doom to reflect on? He is inevitable.

Isn't Thanos a jobber? So probably yes

 

[Tavernade]

Thanos is CGI and recognisable. He'd be pretty easy to bring back down the line for any multitude of reasons or in any multiple ways. Especially if the MCU just keeps on going, they can't really bring back any of the early Phase Avengers after a certain point (except Ruffalo) but they can bring back Thanos.

 

[Wood Man]

Totally expecting to see a younger version of himself in Eternals.

 

[Rendering...]

I'd be surprised if Thanos didn't appear in at least one flashback.

Most definitely. They gonna start with Thanos D+ miniseries building up to something like Doom.

I'd watch the hell out of a Thanos miniseries.

 

[Chasing]

Yes when they do Secret Wars he'll be brought back to job to Doom.

My exact thoughts.

 

[Makoto Yuki]

As a good guy. Or a tenuous alliance.

 

[davepoobond]

he's coming back in the next phase, but probably as an anti-hero of sorts

 

[Foltzie]

Only if he gets to fly the copter.

 

[corasaur]

does marvel ever try to adapt the Thanos Imperative into the movies? because that would probably lead to it.

and even though it would be a stretch I want annihilation to happen in the movies so i'd be on board.

 

[jon bones]

Yes when they do Secret Wars he'll be brought back to job to Doom.

son of a bitch, i'm in

 

[Watchtower]

Anyone thinking they're gonna treat anyone as fully Killed Off For Real until a possible MCU reboot, I have a bridge to sell you.

He'll be back. They'll do it in a way that doesn't suck, but nothing's stopping them from bringing him back.

 

[CaptainKashup]

So uh..
With the ending of Loki, where do you all stand now ?

 

[elLOaSTy]

I could see him as a weird alternate Thanos where he is good or anti-hero.

Alternatively another version of Thanos getting bodied by someone like Kang, Doom, Galactus ect could be interesting. Set up the villain in a fun way to show how strong they are by just taking down Thanos like a chump.

Other than that.. no I don't think so.

 

[Betty]

He will reappear but not sure about being all that important. More like a cameo.

 

[DarthMasta]

Well, no one's ever truly gone. :D

 

[BasilZero]

Well, no one's ever truly gone. :D

MCU is Star Wars

 

[maximumzero]

Thanos will be brought back only to be immediately ganked by the new big bad to show off how much of a threat they are.

 

[twinturbo2]

They gotta bring back Nat first.

 

[Deleted member 30544]

I believe they never made reference to his love story with Death, maybe that could be a nice plot line for him.

 

[Pulp]

I am assuming he will be back, but probably not as a main villain.
