Marvel might only be making one Infinity War movie now
Like a comic book collector obsessively rearranging their longboxes—or, more accurately, like a major movie studio delicately tinkering with one of the most lucrative film franchises in the history of the world—Marvel Studios has announced a name change for its upcoming Avengers sequels. For as long as we’ve known about them, the third and fourth Avengers movies have been going by Infinity War Part 1 and Part 2, presumably signalling a two-part story serving as the climax of the Infinity Stones plotline that’s been building for as long as the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been around. Now, though, Marvel has announced that the first of the two films—set for May 4, 2018—is just being called Avengers: Infinity War (no parts required), while the second—May 3, 2019—has been placeholdered to Untitled Avengers Movie.
