Cobie Smulders and Benedict Wong confirmed for Avengers: Infinity War

October 22, 2016 by Gary Collinson

We all know that the cast of Avengers: Infinity War is going to be packed with as many characters from the MCU as Marvel can fit into the movie, including of course the returning members of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes alongside Thanos, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange and Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel.

Well, it looks like we can now add a couple of supporting players from the Cinematic Universe, with Cobie Smulders seemingly confirming to Jimmy Kimmel that she’ll be back as Maria Hill, and Benedict Wong telling Comic Book that he will also be reprising his Doctor Strange role as Wong.

SEE ALSO: The Wasp won’t be in Avengers: Infinity War, but will feature in Avengers 4

Avengers: Infinity War is scheduled for release on May 4th, 2018.

Originally published October 22, 2016. Updated April 15, 2018.
