Since the release of Iron Man in 2008, Marvel has built up an incredible experiment with its cinematic universe, introducing a ton of superheroes over the course of 18 films, and setting up for a massive finale team-up, Avengers: Infinity War.
The movie gathers all of the franchise’s heroes as they work to stop Thanos, a supervillain who is working to collect the Infinity Stones, artifacts that could grant him infinite power to control the galaxy.
Avengers: Infinity War, hits theaters on April 27th, 2018. You can follow along with all of our coverage here.
