Although the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been going since 2008’s smash-hit Iron Man, we have yet to see “the purple guy”, better known to comic book fans as Thanos, cause any destruction. However, in next year’s Avengers film, that is all going to change.
Collider recently talked to Marvel President Kevin Feige regarding Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War, and he briefly talked about how big of a role Thanos plays in the movie. We’ve all known Thanos will be an integral part of the plot, but just how much time will the character have on screen?
“Thanos in Infinity War is – in a movie that has a lot of characters, you could almost go so far as to say he is the main character, and that’s a bit of a departure from what we’ve done before, but that was appropriate for a movie called Infinity War.”
Considering that Avengers: Infinity War is one of the largest casts ever put to screen, that’s a bit responsibility to hold for Josh Brolin’s Thanos.
