The latest details and possible spoilers for "Avengers: Infinity War" will feature the new film titles, a crossover with the TV and Netflix series and the X-Men coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe soon.

It seems that an update regarding the possible titles for "Avengers: Infinity War" has been revealed since the film's directors Anthony and Joe Russo confirmed that the two movies will have a seperate storyline, instead of a two-part film. Screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeel told Yahoo Movies regarding the script of two "Avengers" films as they stated they have working on a third draft for the first film, while at the same time they are in the second draft in the fourth film.

Several reports online revealed that the third "Avengers" film will be named, "Avengers: Infinity War", while the fourth movies is not yet been announced and it is still in the planning stage.

In other news, "Iron Man" star Robert Downey Jr. posted a photo on his Facebook page a poster of "Avengers: Infinity War" featuring the cast of Marvel Studios TV and Netflix series. The poster revealed the cast of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." such as Clark Gregg, Chloe Bennet, Ming-Na Wen and company, alongside the ,Marvel Netflix series stars such as Charlie Cox, Mike Colter, Krystine Ritter and many more from "Daredevil", "Jessica Jones", "Luke Cage" and "Iron Fist" leading to "The Defenders" crossover.

However, recent reports revealed that the poster that Downey posted was in fact a fan made art, as Marvel TV head Jeph Loeb stated that logically having the TV and Netflix series characters in "Avengers: Infinity War" is next to impossible due to the schedule and production time to do one series and will have to figure out how they will insert characters like Matt Murdock/Daredevil or Luke Cage in the film.

Lastly, several reports revealed that "Batman" producer Matt Key claimed that 20th Century Fox is open for a discussion with Marvel to have a potential collaboration sometime soon, hence hinting that the Avengers will meet the X-Men in the MCU soon, Screenrant reported.

Fox made a huge success from the "X-Men" film franchise as they recently launched two X-Men related movies such as "Deadpool" and "X-Men: Apocalypse" and looks to continue the momentum with "Wolverine 3", "The New Mutants", "Deadpool 2", the "Legion" TV series and possibly "X-Force" spin off.

Marvel had already successfully brought Spider-Man in the MCU thanks to the collaboration with Sony and it will not be long before Fox can bring the children of the atom, as well as the Fantastic Four into the same universe soon. Directors Anthony and Joe Russon wanted to have Wolverine into the MCU since Hugh Jackman will be retiring the charactet after "Wolverine 3".

"Avengers: Infinity War" is slated to be release on May 4, 2018, while the fourth film is scheduled on May 3, 2019.
