Avengers: Infinity War co-screenwriter Christopher Markus told Screen Rant in a recent interview that, while the MCU movies and TV shows are connected only to certain extents, bringing the likes of The Defenders into Infinity War or Avengers 4 wouldn’t be doing the characters or the story justice.
Avengers: Infinity War will see lots of destruction in New York City, but it won’t see New York City’s heroes step in to help protect their home.
Every Marvel fan has dreamt of a potential crossover between the MCU’s heroes and Marvel TV’s heroes.
This is a sound line of thought considering that Avengers: Infinity War already includes such a massive cast, but that notion doesn’t always make sense.
