Avengers: Endgame

Captain America exit to space for the first time inAvengers : Endgameincludes a elusive reference to Iron Man ’s experience . As the pillar of the Marvel Cinematic Universe , Steve Rogers and Tony Stark ’s grandness in the ongoing story mostly maintain Earth as the basal location for the MCU . The cosmic side of the universe   was set up throughThorin stage 1 , but it was inThe Avengersthat it became absolved space would play a larger role moving forward , specially with thetease of Thanosas a looming menace .

Thanos ' original endeavor to stamp down Earth , led by Loki , failed inThe Avengerswhen Iron Man sent a missile through the wormhole above New York and destroy the Chitauri fleet . But , the Mad Titantook matters into his own hands inAvengers : Infinity Warto bring Libra the Scales to the universe . His success in wiping out one-half of all life across the macrocosm left the remaining MCU heroes in disarray .

When the Avengers fly into place aboard the Benatar and Rocket start their lightspeed locomotion , the photographic camera focuses on Captain America as he takes in the wonder of the cosmos . His eye broaden in amazement of this experience as the vibrant colors of place reflect in them . This is n’t just a great snap of Steve still being in awe of what his life has become , but also mirror a panorama with Iron Man inThe Avengers . When he wing the nuclear warhead into the wormhole and let ’s go , his first sojourn to space is one he trust will end with his death . Instead of a wide - eyed look coming across his fount , Tony slowly closes his as he waits for his fate .

In many slipway , this pocket-sized callback is a perfect summation of the differences between the mind-set of Steve and Tony . Steve istypically more of an optimist and hoping for the best , while Tony is more pessimistic and plans for the worst . Steve is well aware that this mission he ’s run on is a dangerous one , but he ’s not going to let that potential fear kibosh him from taking in a once in a lifetime moment .   On the flip side , Tony assume that death could be   the outcome when he took the atomic warhead through the wormhole and was ready to take over this destiny . While he live on that moment , Tony did end up sacrifice his lifeto save everyone inAvengers : Endgame .

And as far as this moment of Captain America pass to outer space goes , it is just the latest example ofAvengers : Endgamemanaging to reference films and second that amount before . Whether or not this specific   consequence was designed on the part of directors Anthony and Joe Russo is not confirmed , so this may have been a bit of a coincidence . However , hold how much detail is put intoAvengers : Endgameand the teemingness of callbacksit include , it would n’t be too surprising to teach they wanted to replicate the memorable scene from the firstAvengershere .
