The Avengers must join forces with the Guardians of the Galaxy to stop him before his onslaught of destruction puts an end to half the universe. Cast Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man : The leader and benefactor of the Avengers who is a self - described genius, billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist with electromechanical suits of armor of his own making. Co-director Joe Russo explained that Stark `` senses this greater threat approaching, so he is doing everything in his power to keep the Earth safe. '' Downey added that Stark would have smaller goals than in previous films, with the idea of him as a tinkerer continued from Iron Man 3. Chris Hemsworth as Thor : An Avenger and the king of Asgard based on the Norse mythological deity of the same name. Joe Russo stated that Thor 's storyline picks up after the events of Thor : Ragnarok, which finds him in a `` very profound... very interesting place '' with `` real emotional motivation ''. Thor now wields a mystical axe known as Stormbreaker, after the destruction of his hammer Mjolnir in Ragnarok. Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner / Hulk : An Avenger and a genius scientist who, because of exposure to gamma radiation, transforms into a monster when enraged or agitated. Banner spends the film trying to reintegrate with the Avengers, and also tries to `` impress upon everybody how dangerous ( Thanos ) is. '' This continues a story arc for the character that was established in Thor : Ragnarok and concludes in the Infinity War sequel, with the difference between Hulk and Banner `` starting to blur a little bit ''. Ruffalo described Hulk in Infinity War as having the mental capacity of a five - year - old. Chris Evans as Steve Rogers : The fugitive superhero formerly known as Captain America, leader of a faction of Avengers. A World War II veteran, he was enhanced to the peak of human physicality by an experimental serum and frozen in suspended animation before waking up in the modern world. Joe Russo said the character will struggle with his decision to no longer be Captain America, as well as with the conflict between his responsibility to himself and his responsibility to others. The character embodies the `` spirit '' of his comic alternate identity Nomad in the film, and receives new vibranium gauntlets from Shuri to replace his traditional shield. Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow : A highly trained spy, and former Avenger and agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Johansson said that Romanoff 's situation in the aftermath of the events of Captain America : Civil War has been `` a dark time. I would n't say that my character has been particularly hopeful, but I think she 's hardened even more than she probably was before. '' Benedict Cumberbatch as Stephen Strange : A former neurosurgeon who, after a car accident that led to a journey of healing, discovered the hidden world of magic and alternate dimensions and became a Master of the Mystic Arts. Aaron Lazar served as Cumberbatch 's stand - in until the latter completed filming on The Current War. At that point, Cumberbatch re-shot scenes where his face needed to be seen. JayFunk once again assisted Cumberbatch with his finger - tutting movements. Don Cheadle as James `` Rhodey '' Rhodes / War Machine : A former officer in the U.S. Air Force who operates the War Machine armor and is an Avenger. Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider - Man : A teenager and Stark 's protegé who received spider - like abilities after being bitten by a genetically - modified spider. Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa / Black Panther : The king of the African nation of Wakanda, who gained his enhanced strength by ingesting the Heart - Shaped Herb. Paul Bettany as Vision : An android and Avenger created using the artificial intelligence J.A.R.V.I.S. and the Mind Stone. Anthony Russo called Vision `` a living MacGuffin. Obviously, that raises the stakes because Vision 's life is in danger, and his life is in conflict with Thanos ' goals, so something 's got to give. '' Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch : A member of Rogers ' faction of Avengers, who can harness magic and engage in hypnosis and telekinesis. Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Falcon : A member of Rogers ' faction of Avengers and former pararescueman trained by the military in aerial combat using a specially designed wing pack. Mackie noted that Wilson has a grudge with other heroes like Iron Man and Black Panther after the events of Civil War. Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes / White Wolf : An enhanced assassin and Rogers ' ally and best friend, who reemerged brainwashed after being thought killed in action during World War II. Barnes, who formerly went by Winter Soldier, is given the name White Wolf by the people of Wakanda who helped remove his Hydra programming. Tom Hiddleston as Loki : Thor 's adoptive brother based on the Norse mythological deity of the same name. Idris Elba as Heimdall : The all - seeing, all - hearing Asgardian former sentry of the Bifröst Bridge, based on the Norse mythological deity of the same name. Peter Dinklage Benedict Wong as Wong : One of the Masters of the Mystic Arts, tasked with protecting some of Kamar - Taj 's most valuable relics and books. Pom Klementieff as Mantis : A member of the Guardians of the Galaxy with empathic powers. Karen Gillan as Nebula : An adopted daughter of Thanos who was raised with Gamora as siblings. Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer : A member of the Guardians and warrior in search of vengeance against Thanos for killing his family. Zoe Saldana as Gamora : A member of the Guardians who is an orphan from an alien world who seeks redemption for her past crimes. She was raised by Thanos. Vin Diesel as Groot : A member of the Guardians who is a tree - like humanoid. Executive producer James Gunn explained that Groot is still an adolescent in the film, in the same state of growth seen in one of the post-credit scenes in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Terry Notary provided motion capture for Groot, and said the character is `` coming of age, so you 'll see the teenager find a mentor to look up to and to model himself after. '' Bradley Cooper as Rocket : A member of the Guardians who is a genetically - engineered raccoon - based bounty hunter and mercenary, and is a master of weapons and battle tactics. Sean Gunn once again served as the stand - in for Rocket during filming, with his acting and expressions serving as motion reference for the character. Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts : Stark 's fianceé and the CEO of Stark Industries. Downey felt that `` Pepper remains the heart of the ( Iron Man ) story '', which was not a focal point in some of the preceding films with Stark. Downey continued that `` we wanted to get back to that reality. Not just for them, but let 's really see how that can add to the something - worth - fighting - for of it all. '' Benicio del Toro as Taneleer Tivan / The Collector : An obsessive keeper of the largest collection of interstellar fauna, relics, and species of all manner in the galaxy. Josh Brolin as Thanos : An intergalactic despot from Titan who longs to collect all of the Infinity Stones in order to impose his will on all of reality, wanting to `` re-balance the universe ''. Producer Kevin Feige added that Thanos believes the universe is becoming over-populated, which led to the destruction of his home planet Titan and is something he vowed not to let happen again, and also said `` you could almost go so far as to say he is the main character of '' the film. Brolin likened Thanos to `` the Quasimodo of this time '' and the novel Perfume, since Thanos was born deformed and considered a `` freak '' on Titan, while Joe Russo would reference The Godfather for Brolin at times, which Brolin felt helped `` to emotionalize the whole thing. '' Thanos does not wear armor in the film, which is symbolic of his growing power as he collects the Infinity Stones. In addition to providing the voice for the character, Brolin performed motion capture on set. Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star - Lord : The half - human, half - Celestial leader of the Guardians who was abducted from Earth as a child and raised by a group of alien thieves and smugglers called the Ravagers. Pratt described his role in the film as `` a cameo... you get to be a little more vibrant ; a little more irreverent ; a little bit more colorful if you want it to be. '' Several other actors reprise their roles from previous MCU films for Infinity War : Danai Gurira as Okoye, the head of the Dora Milaje ; Letitia Wright as T'Challa's sister Shuri ; Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton / Hawkeye, a master archer who has his own `` special '' journey in the film ; Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill, the former deputy director of S.H.I.E.L.D. ; Paul Rudd as Scott Lang / Ant - Man, a former petty criminal who acquired a suit that allows him to shrink or grow in scale while also increasing in strength ; Winston Duke as M'Baku, the leader of Wakanda 's mountain tribe the Jabari ; Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie, an Asgardian who was once a legendary warrior of the Valkyrior ; Angela Bassett as Ramonda, Queen Mother of Wakanda ; Jacob Batalon as Parker 's friend Ned ; Isabella Amara as Parker 's classmate Sally ; and Florence Kasumba as Ayo, a member of the Dora Milaje. Terry Notary appears as one of Thanos ' henchmen, and Tom Vaughan - Lawlor portrays Ebony Maw, a child of Thanos and member of the Black Order. Avengers co-creator Stan Lee has a cameo in the film. Production Main article : Production of Avengers : Infinity War and the untitled Avengers sequel In October 2014, Marvel announced a two - part sequel to Age of Ultron, titled Avengers : Infinity War. Part 1 was scheduled to be released on May 4, 2018, with Part 2 scheduled for May 3, 2019. In April 2015, Marvel announced that Anthony and Joe Russo would direct both parts of Avengers : Infinity War, with back - to - back filming expected to begin in 2016. The same month, Kevin Feige said the films would be two, distinct films `` because they ( have ) such shared elements, it felt appropriate... to ( subtitle the films ) like that. But I would n't call it one story that 's cut in half. I would say it 's going to be two distinct movies. '' By May 2015, Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely signed on to write the screenplays for both parts of the film. A year later, the Russos revealed that they would be retitling the two films, to further remove the misconception that the films were one large film split in two, with Joe stating, `` The intention is we will change ( the titles ), we just have n't come up with ( them ) yet. '' In July 2016, Marvel revealed the film 's title would be shortened to simply Avengers : Infinity War. Anthony Russo said the film was inspired by 1990s heist films, with Thanos on `` on a smash - and - grab ( to acquire the Infinity Stones ), and everybody 's trying to catch up the whole movie. '' Principal photography began on January 23, 2017, under the working title Mary Lou, at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayette County, Georgia, with Trent Opaloch as director of photography. In early February, Marvel confirmed the involvement of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man, Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star - Lord, and Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider - Man in the film. Additional filming took place in Scotland beginning in February 2017. The filming occurred in Edinburgh, Glasgow and the Scottish Highlands, with studio work taking place at Wardpark Studios in Cumbernauld. Filming also began at Durham Cathedral in Durham, England in early May 2017. In late June 2017, filming occurred in Downtown Atlanta, as well as Atlanta 's Central Park in early July, before moving to Queens, New York in the middle of the month. Filming concluded on July 14, 2017. Later in July 2017, Joe Russo stated there were a couple of unfinished scenes for Infinity War that would be shot `` in the next few months ''. In early March 2018, Disney moved the release of Infinity War in the United States to April 27, 2018, to have it release the same weekend as some of its international markets. Visual effects for the film were created by Industrial Light & Magic, Framestore, Method Studios, Weta Digital, Double Negative, Cinesite, Digital Domain, Rise, Lola VFX, and Perception. Music In June 2016, Alan Silvestri, who composed the score for The Avengers, was revealed to be returning to score both Infinity War and its sequel. Silvestri started to record his score in January 2018. Release Avengers : Infinity War is scheduled to have its world premiere in Los Angeles on April 23, 2018. Its worldwide release is set for April 27, 2018, with a few debuts beginning as early as April 25 in a handful of countries, and will be shown in IMAX and 3D on select screens. It was originally scheduled to be released on May 4 in the United States. Ahead of the United States release, AMC Theatres in New York City and Orlando, Florida will air an eleven - MCU film marathon beginning on April 25, leading to a screening of Infinity War. The El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles will also have a similar marathon ahead of the film 's release. Marketing L-R : Kevin Feige, Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Chadwick Boseman and Mark Ruffalo at the 2017 San Diego Comic - Con In May 2017, Robert Downey Jr. and his philanthropic organization Random Act Funding partnered with Omaze to initiate a contest to benefit Random Act Funding. A randomly chosen winner from those that donated would receive an Infinity War set visit. A life - sized statue of Thanos, created by Legacy Effects, was on display at D23 Expo 2017, alongside statues of the Black Order members and Thanos 's children Corvus Glaive, Proxima Midnight, Ebony Maw, and Cull Obsidian, which were revealed at the event. Additionally, Feige, Joe Russo, Downey, Brolin, Bettany, Olsen, Klementieff, Gillan, Bautista, Cheadle, Mackie, Cumberbatch, Stan, Holland, Boseman, Ruffalo and Hemsworth appeared at D23 Expo to present a clip highlighting the 10 years of MCU films along with footage from Infinity War. The footage, which was screened exclusively for the panel, received strong audience reaction, with fans `` literally on their feet and jumping as the footage played ''. Julia Alexander of Polygon commented, `` to say that there was quite a bit happening in the trailer would be one hell of an understatement, but that 's not what got me excited about the promises Infinity War may deliver upon. Seeing Spider - Man in the same movie as Iron Man, Thor, Star - Lord and the Scarlet Witch finally feels like Marvel has made the movie it always wanted to -- and the one we 've always wanted to see. For nearly ten years we dreamt of this reality and to see it play across a massive screen... it was impossible to not feel emotional. '' CinemaBlend 's Eric Eisenberg said the footage left him `` literally shaking '', with the film looking `` like it could be one of the most epic blockbusters ever created, '' concluding `` the hype ( for the film ) most definitely feels very, very real. '' Haleigh Foutch for Collider said, `` It looks dark and dramatic, and utterly epic. It 's clear Marvel is trying to do something different here... to pay off a decade 's worth of narrative and world - building. While it 's impossible to tell from two minutes work of footage, it certainly looks like that gamble paid off. '' The D23 footage was also shown at the 2017 San Diego Comic - Con International. Due to the two convention presentations, Avengers : Infinity War generated over 90,000 new conversations on social media from July 17 to 23, the third-most during that time period behind Thor : Ragnarok and Justice League, according to comScore and its PreAct service. Infinity War stayed in third the following week, with over 41,000 new social media conversations, behind Ragnarok and It. By the week of October 16, Infinity War had generated over 679,000 total social media conversations. To promote the release of the film 's first trailer, Marvel released `` a retrospective video looking back at some of its best trailers '' since Iron Man, `` paired with fan reaction videos to those trailers. '' The first trailer for Avengers : Infinity War debuted on Good Morning America on November 29, 2017. Josh Spiegel of The Hollywood Reporter said, `` The trailer promises, in many ways, exactly what anyone with a passing familiarity with superhero movies would expect... '' but `` the most important part of the trailer is how it carefully, deliberately introduces the notion that the Infinity War films are going to function as a passing of the torch, from one set of Avengers to a newer group. '' Scott Mendelson writing for Forbes noted that even though the trailer was not much different from the convention footage screened earlier in the year, it was `` damn impressive. Moreover, it uses Nick Fury 's big `` Avengers Initiative '' speech, along with Alan Silvestri 's Avengers theme, to excellent effect. '' Conversely to Mendelson, Alexander commented on the different marketing strategy for the film between the convention footage scenes and the trailer scenes, feeling the `` two could n't be more different ''. She noted how the convention footage ( `` meant to please a crowd running on little sleep and jittery with anticipation '' ) was released between Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Thor : Ragnarok, and `` ( i ) t made sense to use Thor and the Guardians to hype up ( Infinity War )... '' because `` Marvel relied on the anticipation of Thor : Ragnarok and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 's success to excite fans, and footage of older movies set to classic Marvel scores as a way to drive home how this movie is an event in itself. '' Conversely, the trailer ( `` designed to explain what 's about to happen, teasing it out with additional background '' ) heavily featured Black Panther and Wakanda, which Alexander said could not have been done earlier without the additional marketing for Black Panther that happened after the conventions to provide additional context. Gael Cooper of CNET observed that the trailer was viewed nearly 500,000 times in its first 15 minutes after it was posted on YouTube but questioned if the trailer broke the site after the view counter appeared to be stuck at 467,331. The trailer was viewed 230 million times in its first 24 hours, becoming the most viewed trailer in that time period, surpassing the record of It. In January 2018, Marvel Comics published a two - issue prequel comic titled Avengers : Infinity War Prelude, which serves as a bridge between Captain America : Civil War and Avengers : Infinity War. A commercial for Infinity War aired during Super Bowl LII. The ad generated the most social media buzz out of all the films advertised during the Super Bowl according to comScore and United Talent Agency ; it was viewed 17.6 million times across YouTube and Facebook. On February 27, 2018, Disney and Marvel announced the Marvel : The Universe Unites charity campaign leading to the release of merchandise for the film on March 3. The week - long event saw stars from the film create social media challenges to provide funds and raise awareness for charities that support children and families impacted by serious illness. If their collective posts reach 1 million likes, Marvel made a $250,000 donation to Starlight Children 's Foundation. Additionally, Disney planned to donate 10 % of sales of all Marvel products purchased at Disney Stores in the United States and online on the weekend of March 3 to the Make - A-Wish Foundation, up to $50,000. Hasbro donated $1 million worth of cash and products to Give Kids the World Village and Funko made a $1 million toy donation to Starlight. A second trailer was released on March 16, 2018, which earned over 1 million views on YouTube in less than three hours after it was released. Alyssa Rosenberg of The Washington Post was not overly enthused about another superhero film having `` special - effects - heavy villains, or the sight of yet another mysterious object hanging over the Manhattan skyline, '' but felt the trailer made her realize `` that I 'm actually looking forward to seeing ( the characters of the MCU ) get to know each other. '' Josh Spiegel of The Hollywood Reporter agreed with Rosenberg about the potential for the character interactions, noting the trailer `` suggests that some of these meetings are going to keep up the playful tone of recent MCU movies ''. He continued, `` It is arguably gimmicky to pile up all of the crossover - style introductions or combinations of heroes in a movie like this, like a superpowered version of two well liked TV shows crossing over primarily in the hopes of getting more viewers to pay attention. But the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe is built on a foundation of these heroes existing within the same space, so their eventual meetings have a level of anticipation that exceeds that of watching them face off against Thanos. '' The second trailer was viewed 179 million times in the first 24 hours, the third-most viewed trailer in that time period, behind the first trailer for the film and It, while also becoming the biggest release for a second trailer, surpassing Beauty and the Beast ( 128 million views ). Box office projection In December 2017, a survey from Fandango indicated that Infinity War was the most anticipated film of 2018. In March 2018, early box office projections had Infinity War grossing between $200 -- 235 million in its opening weekend in the United States and Canada and between $490 -- 590 million for its total domestic gross. Fandango reported that Infinity War achieved the largest initial 24 - hour ticket pre-sales for a superhero film in just six hours, surpassing the record from Black Panther. Atom Tickets also reported that Infinity War sold more tickets in its first pre-sales day than Black Panther sold in its first month. Within 72 hours, the film became the biggest amount of pre-sales for any superhero film at AMC Theatres. AMC noted that Infinity War 's advanced ticket sales were 257.6 % ahead of Black Panther 's, 751.5 % ahead of Captain America : Civil War, and 1106.5 % ahead of Avengers : Age of Ultron during the same time frame. Sequel An untitled sequel is scheduled to be released on May 3, 2019, with the Russos returning to direct, and Markus and McFeely once again writing the screenplay.
