Avengers Infinity War SHOCK: Iron Man and Captain America TEAMED UP in early drafts

WARNING SPOILERS FOR AVENGERS INFINITY AHEAD

Fans hoping to see Steve Rogers and Tony Stark make up in Avengers Infinity War did not get what they wanted.

But to be fair Captain America and Iron Man didn’t even get to share a scene.

In an early scene Tony almost called Cap on the mobile phone he was sent by him at the end of Marvel‘s Captain America: Civil War, but the arrival of Ebony Maw in search of the Time Stone took priority. So what were the original plans for their big reunion?

Well screenwriters Markus and McFeely told Yahoo! they thought about a reunion before Thanos’ threat level was fully known.

McFeely said: “Our first sort of wonky draft [had] the idea that they had to get back in the same room together and deal with that.

“[But it] meant that you’re slowing down your Thanos [Infinity] Stones [quest] to deal with other threats from other movies.

“And that became, as much as we wanted to do, and as many times as we wrote those scenes, it became clear that this movie needed to be propulsive and be about Thanos and what he represented to the Avengers.”

And what else could that be but the Avengers working together, united, to save the world?

The Russos even recently let slip that the closest guess to date is Avengers Forever.

Captain America and Iron Man will reunite in Avengers 4, released in UK cinemas on April 26, 2019.
