Having shot on location in Edinburgh and Glasgow for Avengers: Infinity War, The Daily Record is reporting that Marvel Studios is heading back to Scotland to film scenes for the currently-in-production – and as-yet-untitled – Avengers 4.
“A second Avengers film is penciled in for filming in Scotland in 2018,” states the newspaper’s source. “People have been put on standby for another movie next year. It won’t be until July because the Infinity War premiere is around May and all the cast will be tied up doing promo for that for a month. It’s exciting news that people behind something as big as Avengers want to come back to shoot another film here. This is a fantastic boost for the Scottish film industry.”

As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
