Russo's confirmed for Infinity War (Part 1 and 2)
here's the source Npamusic (talk) 21:13, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Filming start date possibly revealed
Potentially January 23, 2017. See here. The source seems a bit questionable to me, but the date does seem plausible. As always, something to keep our eye on. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 02:28, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

Move to mainspace checklist

 * 1) Move to the mainspace! This can happen in two ways: contact an admin to perform the move (which requires the deletion of Untitled Avengers film in the mainspace). User:Czar has been helpful in the past to moving the draft. OR place  at Untitled Avengers film. DO NOT CUT AND PASTE! (We can ping Czar here when we are ready for the move). ✅
 * 2) If the moving admin does not do this, be sure to remove Draft article and unhide the categories. ✅
 * 3) Change the template at List of Marvel Cinematic Universe films from further to main including both this article and the production article. Update the table on the List of films article to link directly to the new article and that its status is "Filming".
 * 4) Update the templates at The Avengers (2012 film), Avengers: Age of Ultron and Avengers (comics) in other media to only include the new film article, not the production article. That doesn't seem immediately appropriate to link from these sections, at least in the hat templates. ✅
 * 5) Add the logo image to the infobox (File:Avengers Infinity War logo.jpg) unless a new one is revealed, in which case, upload that and use it. ✅
 * 6) Fix redirects currently going to Production of Avengers: Infinity War and the untitled Avengers sequel to the new mainspace article. Okay so there are a lot of redirects, so I'm not going to list them all. ✅
 * 7) We'll also have to make sure things are not piped as untitled Avengers sequel, etc. I think once the name change was revealed I handled instances of the first film going to its redirect, with this issue mainly for this film. ✅
 * 8) Add the article link to all the nav boxes used in the article. ✅
 * 9) If Marvel provides us with a press release indicating filming starting, add any info from that to our respective pages (castings mainly).
 * 10) Yeah this would be a blessing. I think if and when we do get a press release (hopefully) listing all the cast members, that one source can be used in the small production info we have on this article.

As always, let me know if there are any questions or concerns. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 21:44, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * This one too. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 06:31, 23 January 2017 (UTC)
 * done and by the way, you can leave the WikiProject banner quality/importance blank and it'll automatically categorize as "draft" in draftspace and as needing assessment when mainspaced czar  06:40, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Where are we moving this too?
Should it be Untitled Avengers film or Untitled Avengers sequel? We use "the untitled Avengers sequel" in the production article title and at the list of films page, but when Marvel and Disney revealed the name changes, they referred to it specifically as Untitled Avengers (Source), with "film" or "movie" after that (not sure exactly). So should we be using "film" or "sequel" in the title until the official name is revealed? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 21:54, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, an unscientific google search returns twice the amount of hits for "Untitled Avengers sequel" . Scratch that. "Untitled Avengers film" returns 3,600 hits, "Untitled Avengers sequel" returns 6,500 hits and "Untitled Avengers movie" returns 23,000 hits. If based solely on that, I'd say "Untitled Avengers film" since we generally refer to films, not movies.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 22:10, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Either would be fine, I think. - adamstom97 (talk) 23:49, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * If we use "film", should the production article be renamed, as well as the section at the List of films article and any template use, etc.? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 07:04, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I think the current title has a better ring to it than "Production of Avengers: Infinity War and the untitled Avengers film." It also has some continuity to it.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 15:01, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Maybe keep the article title (which I agree, is better as is since it is talking about both films together) and other instances, such as the LoF heading, becomes "film". Only reason I'm asking, is I'm going to try and take care of links that go to the production article that should go to this article, to be easier once the move happens. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:25, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Zoe Saldana possibly revealed the title
See here. I've created a redirect article for Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet. Also, can we use her quote "we all have to go back for Gauntlet later this year" be used to source the inclusion of Drax, Rocket and Groot, or is it too broad? It can at least for her, and I will be adding that in shortly. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 22:28, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet
Earlier today, Zoe Saldana revealed the title for the Avengers Infinity War sequel and i made some changes here Untitled Avengers film but i don't know how to rename the article to make is Infinity Gauntlet, could someone please change it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aidan The Editor (talk • contribs) 00:17, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
 * See above, it was an off the cuff remark not anything to be seriously at this point. Besides she said "Guantlet" not "Avengers: Infinity Guantlet". Wait till there's an actual confirmation and we'll discuss a move here.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 00:23, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

Avengers 4 Filming end date?
If Avengers 4 starts filming in August and wraps in October or November, then they should wrap in December or January instead because Infinity War will last till June or July, that's 6 or 7 months of filming Infinity War and it's not fair for Avengers 4 to wrap in 3 or 4 months from August to October or November. I think Avengers 4 should start in mid-late July and wrap in December or January. What do you guys think? - EgyptianGamer

Requested move 29 November 2017

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) James (talk/contribs) 00:09, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

Untitled Avengers film → Untitled Avengers: Infinity War sequel – I suggest moving this article to Untitled Avengers: Infinity War sequel because the current title is overly banal. It is more beneficial to readers to state that it is a sequel to Avengers: Infinity War, however untitled, compared to saying it is some untitled Avengers film with no indication of timeline placement. We need to remember that not everyone follows the Marvel Cinematic Universe religiously. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 15:18, 29 November 2017 (UTC)


 * It seems to me that "Untitled Avengers film" is WP:PRECISE enough. I don't think there are any other untitled films based on the Avengers. The policy states "Titles should be precise enough to unambiguously define the topical scope of the article, but no more precise than that. For instance, Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta is too precise, as Mother Teresa is precise enough to indicate exactly the same topic." Where the film fits in the in-universe chronology is readily available in the prose. That said, I'm pretty indifferent to the name change as its not the film's title anyway.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 16:48, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose Beyond being the "official" name of the film currently from Marvel and Disney, it is also the name used by may reliable sources when discussing it. In addition, per RedirectViews, this name space for the year gets a far superior view count at a daily average of 3,500. The next one is not even close with a daily average of 11 and "Untitled Avengers: Infinity War sequel" which Erik is suggesting this be moved to is currently 4th on that view list. If that daily average between 2 and 1, and the name Erik wants to move it to, was somewhat closer, say at at least 1,000 views, then that would make sense to consider this move. But readers aren't having an issue finding the article or searching for it. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 04:47, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
 * The redirect views aren't relevant here because they are biased toward the current configuration. We are dealing with the ideal descriptive title here. Before the trailer for Avengers: Infinity War came out, Untitled Avengers film could easily have been associated with that film. Now that association is less likely, but it's still not clearly associated with Avengers: Infinity War itself. To use another example, let's say that they already started filming a second Han Solo film. Since we have Solo: A Star Wars Story established, would we resurrect Untitled Han Solo film for that second film? Doesn't that seem ambiguous or nebulous to do? I think it makes more sense to do something like Untitled Solo: A Star Wars Story sequel. For so-called sequels without final titles, we either do " 2" or "Untitled sequel". Essentially, this requested move more clearly associates this film as the successor to a specific predecessor. It is more wordy, sure, but it is more precise. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 15:36, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Support it's a WP:NATURAL title and Erik is right to be giving the reader context. Helpful. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:07, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: Wasn't the idea with this film that it initially was titled "Pt 2" and then it wasn't? If so than I'd have to oppose the move, as we don't know why that title was dropped. It's possible that the film is no longer considered to be a direct "sequel" to Infinity Wars, in which case it would be just guessing if we moved it to that title. --Deathawk (talk) 07:33, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
 * That is getting too nitpicky. "Sequel" is being used here in the simplest sense, that it comes after Avengers: Infinity War, regardless of whether or not it will be some kind of part two. If anything, this title is technically better than The Avengers: Infinity War 2 in avoiding full-on story connection. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 12:52, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
 * But given the history of the project, I would say that it does have implications that wouldn't be inherited by other such page moves. As such my vote still remains Opposed.--Deathawk (talk) 04:45, 4 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Support, while the prose clears up the timeline issue, it's helpful for the title to make this unambiguous. —Locke Cole • t • c 10:32, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose - from what I've read, the producers have repeatedly said they aren't considering this film as direct sequel, but rather a follow on film in the Avengers franchise. That's why they changed the name and dropped the "pt 2". Moving this page to have the film called a "sequel", especially when is goes against recent, reliable sources, is both incorrect and asking for trouble, in the form of on-going disputes and debates on the matter. That said, I would support a move to "Untitled 2019 Avengers film", just for the sake of clarity. - the WOLF  child  20:01, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
 * , that is getting too pedantic. The vast majority of readers aren't familiar with whether or not it is part two. "Sequel" is being used here in the broadest sense, that it comes after Avengers: Infinity War, regardless of storyline connection. Readers benefit more from recognizing more immediately that there is an Avengers film that will be released after Infinity War is released. The details of the premise can be conveyed in the article itself. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 15:25, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Really...? I just posted my opinion, with an explanation, like I was asked to. Like everyone else here. You, on the other hand, pestering everyone who opposes you is kind of WP:DICK-ish behavior. Just let it play out. Sheesh. - the WOLF  child  15:46, 5 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Support simply in the interest of cohesion.Trillfendi (talk) 23:54, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose Title is clear enough already, and it's temporary anyway. Readers aren't having trouble finding it. In the unlikely event they announce production of Avengers 5 before giving this one a subtitle, I'll reconsider. Argento Surfer (talk) 17:30, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

Cast citations need a revamping
Many of the cast citations are simply references to the actors agreeing to a certain number of movies or confirming for Avengers: Infinity War back when it was going to be a Part I/Part II deal and it's assumed they'd appear in both. These need to be examined and re-confirmed or new sources need to be found that don't make those assumptions. I don't follow entertainment news very closely, so I'm not sure where to go for reliable sources. GaidinBDJ (talk) 03:46, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

Untitled Avengers film → Avengers 4 – Although the film is still untitled, many sources talk about it as "Avengers 4" (it wouldn't be a mere descriptive name, but a name that is actually used in sources). A search for "Avengers 4" in Google news (see here gives 4,890,000 results, and a search for the words "Avengers" and "untitled" just gives 53,000, see here.

Plot summary states Loki and others are killed in Part One
The Cast section is currently using the Cast list from Part One without noting the "killed" cast members in Part One. My edit has indicated that the Cast section should include a short notice that some of the Cast members were killed and may not be appearing in Part Two. User:Triiiple is reverting even though the first paragraph of the current plot summary of Infinity Wars is stating that Loki is "killed". FutureForecasts (talk) 16:52, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
 * That’s not the way this works. You made a bold edit, it was reverted, and now you’re expected to discuss, not revert the revert. The film is a work of fiction, there are many ways the character can reappear if he/she was “killed” in a previous film.—TriiipleThreat (talk) 17:14, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Requesting comments from other editors. Should some edit be made to recognize that some of the killed cast members from Part One may not be returning for Part Two? FutureForecasts (talk) 18:29, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Especially given the nature of the story, I don't think we should be making any assumptions about cast members based on the plot of the previous film. Let's wait for reliable sources. Nitpicking polish (talk) 20:56, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I have already responded to this same discussion at Talk:Production of Avengers: Infinity War and the untitled Avengers sequel. I suggest we stick to just one. Either way, we should go by reliable sources not the guesses of editors who think they know what will happen in one film based on watching a different one. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:38, 1 June 2018 (UTC)


 * If sources explicitly state that they are in part two then we follow the sources, with no comment on if they are being brought back from their deaths. In the case of sources being ambiguous or speculative we should just leave them out for the time being. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 14:47, 2 June 2018 (UTC)


 * There is currently no reliable source to tell us that anyone of the killed cast in Part One is returning/reviving/resurrecting for Part Two which I could find published after the release of Part One. None. Since this is a Part One going into Part Two sequence of films, then the fact that Part One includes death scenes of killed cast members is a reliable source for their deaths as is currently shown in the Infinity War plot summary on Wikipedia. If anyone has a reliable source from after the release of Part One for killed cast members from Part One returning for roles in Part Two then let us see it. Otherwise it is original research to claim that they are returning in Part Two. The article should indicate which cast members were killed in Part One, Loki's death and the others. FutureForecasts (talk) 17:38, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * No, it is original research to decide ourselves which reliable sources to ignore based on the fictional events depicted in a film. If there is no new source saying the old ones were intentionally misleading to hide the events of this film, then we don't get to make that decision. - adamstom97 (talk) 23:18, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * We get many reliable sources during the filming part of a production for who has been cast and is appearing. For this film, that happened to be concurrent with Infinity War. Going by on screen deaths is hardly a way to make decisions, especially in this case. Not to mention that what happens plot wise in Infinity War is irrelevant here because there are many narrative options available to allow characters who have "died" to reappear (see flashbacks, dream sequences, alternate realities, etc.). And based on that, if that does happen, we note that for the character in the plot section most likely. All in all, none of the edits that were attempted to add should have been. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 03:05, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Outside reviewers of the film have indicated regret for the death of Loki since he represented such a cult following in the various previous franchise films. So many reviewers have also made the point that these two films (Part One leading into Part Two) are not two random entry points in the Marvel universe but that they are sequenced for release as a Part One followed by a pre-announced Part Two. Therefor some mention should occur somewhere in this article of these deaths since the death of Loki and other killed cast members is already mentioned in the film article for Infinity War. Their deaths should be mentioned somewhere in this article. FutureForecasts (talk) 14:59, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Perhaps add something like "He died in the aftermath of Infinity War"? Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 18:25, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
 * How do you know that his appearance here leads on from his role in Infinity War? You are still making guesses based on a different film from this one. If we get a source saying that Loki will appear as some sort of phantom, then it might make sense to clarify that he has previously been killed off. Or if we start explaining how characters are brought back to life, it will of course make sense to explain that they were killed first. But until we get something like that, we can only go off what we have been told and not what our best guess of the future is. - adamstom97 (talk) 23:49, 4 June 2018 (UTC)


 * If Emir is stating that it is best to keep this edit as short as possible in this article then I am agreeing with him. Also, there is nothing in the new teaser trailers for Costume Upgrades for Part Two published now in June to suggest that any of the killed cast from Part One will be returning for Part Two as published here: . The killed cast members in Part One need to be identified in this article concerning what is stated about the returning cast of Part Two. FutureForecasts (talk) 16:19, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Again, no they don't. Who is or isn't "killed" in the previous film is a plot detail, not even related to this film. Character descriptions do not include plot info, only the basics descriptions for the character. However, if we have statements from either the actor, writers, directors, or producers discussing the "death" in the previous film in regards to this film, then something can be included. But we don't have anything like that at this time for any of the "dead" characters, and we don't just make that statement for the need of identifying that. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:08, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Another editor, Shayan, yesterday is also noting this issue in his edit yesterday in the article. Multiple editors are now noticing this issue about the killed cast members from Part One. The directors of this film are serious filmmakers and it seems odd to think that the killed cast members died in Part One as random thoughts by these directors. Could I suggest that it makes sense to add something to the current description of Loki here in the article which now states: "Thor's adoptive brother." It can be left this way with a phrase added to state that "Loki was portrayed as being killed in Part One". FutureForecasts (talk) 15:47, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I feel like you are not hearing anything we are saying. We are not a fan wikia. Not only is who did or didn't "die" plot info from another film, it does not automatically make any of those actors/characters unable to appear in some form in this film. If reliable sources come out before the film releases stating one of these methods of return, we can include it. Additionally, yes these two films were once a "part 1/part 2" situation, but not as much any more, yet another reason not to note this. And as I said in my previous comment, we can add such a statement if we have context for it with comments from the actor or filmmakers. Other than that, we are just pandering to trivial info, which isn't the purpose of Wikipedia. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:04, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Untitled Avengers film → Avengers 4 – Following the release of Avengers: Infinity War, it appears that this film has become more frequently referred to as Avengers 4. Obviously it is not the official title, but is the most common colloquial title, and we should have that until an official title is established. Similar recent precedent with Terminator 6. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 12:38, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Wait. At some point, this is going to get an "official" title. I see no point in moving it now, when it's just going to need to be moved again in weeks or months time... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 14:36, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * The point of moving it now is for readers, who are likely to search for "Avengers 4" (based on the frequent use of this colloquial title), to land on an article with that title. To redirect to "Untitled Avengers film" may be unnecessarily confusing for some. We have to consider readers who are not full-on MCU fans and may not understand what "untitled Avengers film" means. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 15:06, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Avengers 4 is already a redirect to the same – IOW, readers will find it fine when they search for "Avengers 4". It doesn't need to be moved in the meantime. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:41, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, I know that. This is not a huge problem or anything like that. However, the current article title can be slightly detrimental in an unnecessary way when readers are redirected to "Untitled Avengers film" when it could simply be "Avengers 4". If "Avengers 4" is the most common reference for this film, why don't you want Wikipedia to reflect that? Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 17:24, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Oppose As with IJBall, I'd say hold off still. We went through this recently on June 1 (see above) and as with that one, and now, "untitled Avengers film" is used frequently by sources referring to the film. Plus, since that request, we have from Feige that the title is coming at the end of the year, so it will only be a few more months. I also don't know if this is representative of searches done, but "Avengers 4" is only averaging about 400-500 page views (after a huge spike around the release of Infinity War), so that isn't really that much, or an indication we are doing a disservice to the readers not having the article at that title. Also, Disney ~officially~ title the film "Untitled Avengers film" when they removed the "Infinity War-Part 2" title. Had that not happened, I would be in support of the move. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:31, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above. We'll get the actual title soon anyway. - adamstom97 (talk) 21:48, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Misleading as readers may mistake "Avengers 4" as an "official title".  "Terminator 6" is problematic in the same way, as it has been italicised in the text, something that can be avoided if the article is given a descriptive title.  -- wooden  superman  13:17, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Change Title to Avengers 4
A couple of days ago, I was on the DC Extended Universe Wikipedia page and I was reading in the talk that there had been requests to change it to Worlds of DC or Untitled DC Cinematic Universe. Untitled Avengers Film has the same problem. On Wikipedia it is referred to as UAF but everywhere else calls it Avengers 4. DCEU keeps it's name on the page because it is the most common term for it which is the same as Avengers 4. I search up news about the movie each day and every single webpage I go onto calls it Avengers 4 because it is the most common term for the film. I think we should rename it Avengers 4 until the official title comes out along with the trailer in November/December. Because, people are going to search up Avengers 4, not Untitled Avengers Film. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mystic Moore (talk • contribs) 03:05, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

It has been confirmed by Avengers 4 executive producer Michael Grillo that “when we got Tilda Swinton, she was just a 1-day availability” while shooting the film.

We don't actually know if she's in the film. It's clear she did do filming for the film, but her role would most likely be short if she was only available for a day so her scenes may of been cut. Also we do not yet have confirmation from Marvel about her role in Avengers 4. So until we see her in marketing, get an announcement or see her in the film, I don't feel she should be added yet.

Score
The article cites Comicbook.com for score information for Infinity War and Endgame. However, that announcement was made in June 2016 and the Infinity War score was released in April 2018, per the source cited in the soundtrack article. Now that we know that Alan Silvestri did, in fact, score the film, we should say that, instead of the less precise claim that he had been hired to do it. A pertinent example is James Gunn being hired to direct the sequel to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 - it's a fact, but it would be misleading to place it front and centre in the article without clarifying that he has now been fired. Airbornemihir (talk) 23:15, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
 * The version of the article that you want does not make sense. In June 2016, Silvestri had not even started working on the Infinity War score. - adamstom97 (talk) 00:13, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
 * that's a valid concern. Would it work to cite a more recent source, such as TechAdvisor earlier this month? Airbornemihir (talk) 01:25, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
 * But I don't see why we need to change it. We definitely should be citing the initial announcement, and at that time he was announcing that he would return for both Infinity War and Endgame. The only way we could use an updated source is to add something along the lines of "He did go on to compose the Infinity War score" which seems a bit janky to me, and unnecessary since I think most readers are going to make the assumption unless we say otherwise. - adamstom97 (talk) 00:42, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
 * All right. I don't want to wander into bludgeon territory (although there are only two people in this discussion) so I'll just note it seems janky to me, in a similar way, for the "Music" section to keep looking like it hasn't been updated since June 2016. I guess this is somewhat subjective, so I'm not going to push it further. Cheers, Airbornemihir (talk) 01:02, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
 * To be clear, I agree that it looks like it has not been updated since June 2016, but I do not think that will be an issue once we have some more content in the section which will likely refer to his completed work on Infinity War. So I think WP:NORUSH applies here. - adamstom97 (talk) 01:06, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

"The trailer was originally scheduled to be released on December 5, 2018, but was postponed for the funeral of former President George H. W. Bush.  The first trailer for the film was released on December 7, 2018.

Thank you, sincerely HAL333 HAL333 (talk) 21:59, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

"Intended to be the sequel"
What is the necessity of this phrase? What does it have to do with WP:CRYSTAL? Popcornduff (talk) 17:57, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. Things can still change between now and release. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:51, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * That's an absurd application of the rule. By this logic we should also write that it is intended to be released by Disney, or that it is intended to be in the superhero genre. Popcornduff (talk) 18:58, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I don't think it's feasible to argue that this could end up being an indirect sequel. Is this lack of certainty coming from a source? Argento Surfer (talk) 19:34, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with that "intended to be" is unnecessary. It should be dropped. Keep the language simple. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 19:50, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * My God, how I long to keep the language simple... Popcornduff (talk) 20:20, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Like Favre said, anything can happen. The film is uncompleted and unreleased. The wording should reflect that this is a future event and circumstances may change.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 20:37, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * So the whole article should be written as a hypothetical then? Do sources support the lack of certainty about it's status as a direct sequel to Avengers 3? Argento Surfer (talk) 20:45, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, sources support the fact that it has not been released. The film is not beyond being shelved, scrapped, etc.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 20:51, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I think you know what I was asking for, but please, provide a reliable source that indicates this multi-million dollar production might be scrapped. Argento Surfer (talk) 20:53, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Likewise, I think you know its not about being a direct or indirect sequel, but more about if it will even be the next in a line of a sequence of films.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 20:59, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I never said it will be, but it is not out of the realm of possibility. Stranger things have happened. Point being we do not write about future events as if they have already occurred.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 21:00, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * So it's intended to be distributed by Disney then? Argento Surfer (talk) 21:07, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. Perhaps, we should change the current wording to reflect that.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 21:12, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Done, but I bet it doesn't stick. Argento Surfer (talk) 21:17, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * The word "intended" can be removed entirely. If it was in development hell or the script was getting shopped around, more cautious language would be needed. If there were an actual dispute, such as any sources who actually said "Well, Disney calls it a sequel but it's really a soft reboot" and someone else says, "No, it's a hard reboot, no it's an homage based on the franchise..." But nobody is saying that. Nobody disputes what film they are making or what it is going to be. The only bit of crystal ball reduction we have here is that it's not in the can yet. Readers should be adequately cautioned that we'll see it when we see it and until we see it, nothing about the final release is a fact. It is a fact that they are making the direct sequel Infinity War, it's a fact that they are making Marvel's 22nd film (exhausting! it has to be said) and it's a fact that they're making a movie based on the Avengers comics. We know with sufficient confidence they are working on that, and not working on a musical comedy set in medieval Spain. It's sufficient to just be clear that it's not done yet. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 21:48, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I would say that it's certain beyond reasonable doubt that this will be released by Disney, etc etc. Of course, there could be a meteor strike that kills all of humanity between today and the release date or something, but I would say that a simpler wording is fine. Juxlos (talk) 22:02, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Is "set to be distributed" not a less wonky way of phrasing this? "Intended" just doesn't sound right in this context. Sandrobost (talk) 22:21, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Is there even anyone outside the groupthink involved with this set of articles that even supports "intended to be" here? Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 00:55, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * The problem with this groupthink is that the articles suffer a cookie-cutter approach where everything is exactly the same, to a fault. Here's Google showing similar articles with "intended to be": results. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 01:00, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

What is the fault? It is accurate. For the record, “intended”/“set”/“scheduled” makes no difference to me but we should avoid the finality and prophetizing of “is”, and “will be”. —TriiipleThreat (talk) 01:13, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * "Intended" is a loaded word that casts doubt where there is no serious (serious = non-FRINGE) doubt. See WP:CLAIM. "Disney insisted the movie was going to be based on the Avengers. They claimed that it would be the 22nd Marvel movie. Disney speculated that the released version, if it is ever finished, let alone distributed, would be about superheroes. Disney press releases argued that it would be a sequel to Age of Ultron." Etc. See how silly that sounds? It's a violation of NPOV to introduced loaded terms that express greater doubt or concern for the truthfulness of a statement than is expressed by our sources. None of our sources describe Disney's announced plans as shifty or flakey. The solution is to use flat, neutral language: "Disney said the film was going to be about guys in tights fighting space demigods."<P>You can begin a paragraph saying, " said the movie will have <X>." and then add sentences said what else will do: "The movie will have Y. The movie will have Z." If the first sentence tells us they said will do a thing [in the future], then the sentences that follow can be reasonably assumed to also be things the company said (not claimed, not speculated, not dreamed up) they will do [in the future]. We aren't saying in Wikipedia's voice what will happen; we have provided in text attribution for who is telling us what they will do. Any doubt as to the reliability or the veracity of their intentions must be based on sources, not a knee-jerk skepticism invented out of whole cloth by a Wikipedia editor. That is enough of a disclaimer. No loaded terms like "intended"need to be piled on, out, -- what? -- a apparent lack of respect for the reader's intelligence? --Dennis Bratland (talk) 02:48, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I think this stems in WP:FILM's traditional habit of saying for films' release dates that it is "scheduled/set/intended" to be released on a given date. In general, it makes sense if the date years or months out because dates can change. When the release date is a lot closer, then that qualifier becomes less and less necessary (though I have no idea where the threshold could be). But that qualifier seems to be leaking to other, more definite characteristics of films. For Wonder Woman 1984, it "is intended to be the sequel to 2017's Wonder Woman", and like you said, it casts doubt on that characteristic. With a group of the same editors writing these articles in virtual lockstep, one bad practice affects them all, and outside pressure (like this discussion) is needed to correct such behavior. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 16:44, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * This kind of reminds me of when you find publications still using “allegedly” after a criminal has already either plead guilty or been convicted with undeniable proof. Like “It’s obvious they did it so why is it 'allegedly' still being used?”. I know in some cases “sequel” can be used pretty loosely, like Bigger Fatter Liar, but Endgame and WW84 use the word “sequel” with every ounce of its meaning ever since their respective announcements. Endgame in particular was literally “Untitled Avengers Sequel” for at least a year!--Fradio71 (talk) 20:03, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Definitely release dates are purely hypothetical and they definitely slip and slip again, and even if the movie is done on time, they can move it for many reasons. It's totally fine to use cautious language to make clear the release date isn't certain and the studio's announced release date shuld be taken with a huge grain of salt. Any speculation as to how it will perform or whether it will win awards -- totally different, and should be treated with extreme skepticism, especially claims by the studio about how great it will be. As I said on Talk:Tesla Roadster (2020), extraordinary claims by the manufacturer about how astoundingly record-setting the performance of a future product will be should be presented with very explicit in-text attribution to the biased, conflict-of-interest source, and should often not be in articles at all.<P>But this other stuff? Is it really an Avengers movie? Will it really be distributed by Disney Studios? Not extraordinary claims, and there is litte to no reason to think it will be anything other than what they say. Attribute in-text who the future promises come from, with neutral phrasing: "X said it will be a foo" and don't belabor that point. Saying it once is enough.<P>Is it really a direct sequel? WHO CARES? If they say it is, then sure, it's a direct sequel. Why are we questioning this? Because sources question it? No. Take out the word "direct". WHO CARES if it's a direct sequel or just a sequel? Fussing over direct sequel vs sequel is bikeshedding. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 23:28, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Nobody is questioning, who is the distributor, or what type of sequel it might be. The question is “has it been distributed”. If the answer is no, you cannot factually say that it has been when not a single copy has been shipped. Likewise, you cannot call it the 22nd film before it has been released. As you all say release dates are subject to change. It could bomb in test screenings and be sent back for reshoots, in which case Spider-Man: Far from Home may end up being the 22nd film. This happened recently with both New Mutants and X-Men: Dark Phoenix. Captain Marvel traded slots with two other MCU films, it was originally supposed to be the 19th film and has fallen back to #21. Nothing is a sure thing.—TriiipleThreat (talk) 04:30, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi guys, just joining in here with my opinion. Triiiple is correct in that we cannot be certain of the future and need to carefully word things if they could change. That is a pretty basic CRYSTALBALL issue. Despite that, I would be willing to remove the "set" wording from it being a sequel since we know the film exists now, and that is something that could be applied across the page since filming has begun. So once filming begins, a film article can be certain about some things (it exists, it is being written and directed already, etc.) but we still need to be careful about changing release dates (when it comes out, what order it comes out in a franchise, etc.). - adamstom97 (talk) 20:24, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
 * And it was principally filmed right after Infinity War, so “intended to be the sequel” should be “is the sequel”, even if it never gets released, would still be “the unreleased sequel--Fradio71 (talk) 04:25, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

What The Hell Do U Mean,People Say THIS Isn't A Reliable Source For Crying Out Loud Coolguy3478 (talk) 16:17, 27 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Wikis are considered an WP:SPS, which are unreliable and not permissible.—-TriiipleThreat (talk) 16:26, 27 December 2018 (UTC)


 * , Wikipedia is not a reliable source on its own, you are 100% correct. However, because of the verifiability, no original research and the fact that we try to use reliable sources, you can usually weed out incorrect/fake information by looking to see if something has a source, then looking at the source yourself. —Locke Cole • t • c 02:55, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

Note that the wiki references the Jackson part on this article. It mentions that Sebastian Stan (Bucky) said in an interview "You look around and you just saw everyone from Samuel L. Jackson to Michael Douglas to Michelle Pfeiffer. Everybody was there." And then speculates if that means that he inadvertently spoiled Fury's appearance in the film. But it's just that: speculation. Michael Rooker has also been in the set of "Infinity War", but it was just a deliberate misdirection to make people think that he would be in the film and then make his death in GOTG 2 come as a surprise. Unless we have a direct and clear confirmation, as in "yes, Jackson will appear in the film" (or the film is finally released and he's in it), then we shouldn't add him yet.

Long story short: if you search for "Hugh Jackman" in google, it provides some basic info about the actor, including his films. "Endgame" is listed there. THAT IS ALL.
