In many ways , the Marvel Cinematic Universefeels like a TV show whose episodes you follow on the prominent screenland ( in other Bible , an old - fashioned pulpy serial ) . And just like many modern goggle box serial , the MCU has down off characters in lurid and emotionally charged agency . There have been many grievous character deaths in the MCU , from Natasha Romanoff to Groot .
The death of Tony Stark will bea problematical one to beat , but the quality deaths are n’t over yet . More character reference will die as Phase Four begin . So , here are 10 characters who could be marked for the MCU ’s next major death .
Thor
Not a lot of fans expected Thor to surviveAvengers : Endgame , but gratefully , he made it to the end . It was Tony Stark who break down on the battlefield , while Steve Rogers returned to the past and aged graciously . Thor ’s survival pave the means for Taika Waititi to continue his revamp of the case withThor : Love and Thunder .
But Chris Hemsworth will undoubtedly want to move on to other projects presently andJane Foster has been announced as Thor ’s replacement , so the God of Thunder might die at the final stage ofLove and Thunder .
Scarlet Witch
It ’s been reported that the upcoming Disney+ seriesWandaVisionwill steer directly intoDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . Scarlet Witch will have a corroborate role in the latter , sothe lead rooter theoryis that she ’ll alter the fabric of reality inWandaVisionbefore helping the Sorcerer Supreme to set everything in his next solo adventure .
As Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch nosedive into the multiverse and possibly face off against the terrifyingvillainNightmare , there ’s a hazard that Scarlet Witch could die .
Hank Pym
Hank Pym had his superhero heyday in the ‘ 60s and he ’s not getting any younger . Michael Douglas has said he ’d fuck to do a fully digitally de - aged prequel about Hank ’s adventures with Janet Van Dyne ’s Wasp during the Cold War , which could be a circle of playfulness .
But in the present day , it ’s potential that Hank wo n’t survive much longer . A futureAnt - Manmovie ( though not necessarilyAnt - Man 3 ) could have a heartfelt funeral scene .
Hawkeye
The primary destination ofAvengers : Endgamewas to mark the end of the saga that set forth with the collecting of the six core Avengers in their initial 2012 team - up . However , only half of those six Avengers wrapped up their arc in the movie . Clint Barton isset to train his heir , Kate Bishop , in the upcomingHawkeyeseries on Disney+ , with Hailee Steinfeld being rumored for the role ( and based on her dramatically resonant crook in the Coens’True Gritremake , that would be awing ) .
Clint could retire to a biography as a husbandman with his married woman and kids , but that would that would be the easy direction out . The toughened ending would be to gruesomely pop him off as he hands the great mullein to Kate .
Nick Fury
The MCU has slang us with so many faux - out death forS.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Furythat when he inevitably does get killed in legal action , it might not come as much of a shock . So , Marvel will really have to push the gravy boat out to give his demise some impact .
Whether he die in battle with Captain Marvel in her next solo motion-picture show or something dread happens to the Skrull command ship we saw him traveling on inSpider - Man : Far From Home ’s post - credits scene , Fury ’s days could be count .
The Hulk
When the Phase Four slate for the MCU was ab initio announced , there did n’t seem to be any elbow room for the Hulk . His discharge is complete , as the duality of Bruce Banner and the Hulk has beenresolved in the form of “ Smart Hulk,”and all his good adventures have been depicted on - screen already .
Despite the fact that Bruce has beenconfirmed for an appearancealongside his full cousin Jen Walters in the upcomingShe - Hulkseries , he could be the next character to go .
Vision
Technically , Vision already had an emotionally charge destruction shot when Thanos ripped the Mind Stone out of his head . However , he ’s about to be bestow back somehow inWandaVision . One fan possibility is that a grieving Scarlet Witch will warp reality to resurrect him and end up screwing up the universe as a result .
This could lead to some dire consequences – consequences that will require the interference of Doctor Strange and the Masters of the Mystic Arts – that send Vision to another early tomb .
Rocket
When James Gunn was rehired to directGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 , he said that the most exciting prospect about helming the threequel was arrive the chance to wrap up Rocket ’s MCU arc , as Rocket is the type that he most identifies with .
There arerumors that Rocket will face his Maker inVol . 3 , or that he could regain a sexual love interest . But the end of a character discharge in the MCU usually only intend one thing : dying .
Bucky Barnes
With Steve Rogers out of the exposure , there ’s not much elbow room in the MCU for Bucky Barnes . Marvel will sure get a lot of gasoline mileage out ofBucky ’s buddy - copper team - up with Sam Wilson coming to Disney+ , but Bucky has find peacefulness . His electric discharge is over . There ’s niggling else for him to do .
Keeping him around will have a negative event on his character . Bucky could be a casualty of the nextAvengersmovie , or his last could make for an emotionally charge time of year coda inThe Falcon and the Winter Soldier .
Spider-Man
Last summer , Marvel fans were horrified to get wind that talk had broken down between Disney and Sony , and Spider - Man would be departing from the MCU on a big cliffhanger . Fortunately , after Tom Holland drunkenly call in the companies ’ CEO , the negotiations got back on cartroad andthe MCU incarnation of Spidey will return to multiplexes .
He ’ll appear in another solo movie to enfold up his standalone trilogy , and he ’ll also have a character in another MCU movie that ’s yet to be announce . To get Spidey out of the MCU and into the Sony - verse full - time , he could be killed off in that mysterious second film .
