Since it was first announced that Marvel Studios would be dropping the Part I and Part II titles from Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4, fans have been speculating as to what ‘Untitled Avengers‘ may entail (the title of which is apparently deemed by Marvel to be a spoiler).
Will it continue the Infinity War storyline? Will the Avengers still be fighting Thanos? Is it New Avengers? Why are set photos apparently revealing a number of flashbacks to earlier moments in the MCU?
At this point, ahead of next month’s Infinity War, it’s all just theory and speculation really, and as co-writer Stephen McFeely has pointed out to Heroic Hollywood, these theories all seem to be wide of the mark.
“You have no idea what Avengers 4 is,” said McFeeley. “Nobody knows, and that’s what makes me particularly excited. I look all the time on the internet: people have no idea!”

Meanwhile, in the same interview, McFeely went on to discuss the split between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4, echoing the comments from directors Joe and Anthony Russo earlier this week that the two films will be distinctly different, rather than a traditional two-parter:
“[Avengers 4] resolves the intrigue of Infinity War; [the movies are] clearly linked, but they almost seem to belong to two different genres. We did not want to cut a film in half and say, ‘Pay now and come back in a year for the rest!’ These are two very different stories, on a tonal and structural level.”
So, come on then Marvel fans: new theories please! What’s going on in Avengers 4?
