Synopsis
Avengers: Infinity War is a 2018 superhero film from Marvel Studios, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo. It is the nineteenth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and follows The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron.
The central threat is Thanos, a powerful warlord who is hunting for the six Infinity Stones. With all of them in his hands, he could reshape the universe as he sees fit. His search takes him across space, and the film opens with him closing in on the survivors of Asgard, where Thor, played by Chris Hemsworth, is among those caught in his path.
News of the danger reaches Earth. Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) brings a warning to New York, and Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is pulled in with Stephen Strange and Peter Parker. In other places, the Guardians of the Galaxy are drawn into the same conflict, and the heroes split into separate groups, each trying to protect a stone or stop Thanos before he reaches it.
Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle and Samuel L. Jackson are also in the cast, and the film brings together the characters of several earlier stories.
