Since the very beginning of the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe experience, the story behind "Avengers: Infinity War" has been heading to a major conclusion.
Marvel's two-part blockbuster "Avengers: Infinity war" was one of the highest crossover events in the comics' history. The expectation is that the version of the film will bring alongside every Marvel hero met so far. According to the event so far, this may not be the case as getting access to Marvel's slate of TV characters is only slightly a challenge that it would be to get the X-Men, Cinema Blend reported.
It is well known that the TV and movie divisions at Marvel are separate entities, and they do keep each other updated on what they are doing. With this, continuity remains intact although it looks like upon a hero been given to one division or another, that toy remains in that particular sandbox.
By the time "Infinity War" hits, there will be quite a roster to choose from all the characters Marvel will have introduced. With that in consideration, lovers of Marvel's Netflix TV series are not sure whether characters like Jessica Jones or Daredevil will show up in the big fight. Anthony Russo, one-half of the team directing "Infinity War" speaking to a Spanish language site suggest fans might not be willing to hold their breath as they wait to see the Defenders fight alongside the Avengers.
"It's complicated. ... The films are controlled by a group led by Kevin Feige, so they function as a unit. Other products, even if they are from Marvel, are controlled by others. Then there is the possibility of a crossover, but it's more complicated." Russo said.
According to the Goliath, Russo's comments clarify the point that bridging TV shows and Marvels films is not that easy. Before, the two have played nice with Cobie Smulder's Maria Hill and Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury making cameo appearances in Agents of Shield, this means there is always a chance that things could go the other way where TV characters will be making a cameo in one of the movies.
Within the two divisions, crossovers have taken place before, though this is the far they have gone in one direction. Coulson an agent of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D before being drafted by TV to help launch the entire division, he was on the movie side. Also seen, is Samuel L. Jackson a guest star on the series as Nick Fury. All we have seen beyond that, are references on the TV shows to events and characters from the films. As of yet, nothing on the TV series has made an impact on the films.
Among the major hits with audiences is Marvel's Netflix series, many viewers would certainly love to see these characters on the big screen. It is hopeful that they can work with the guys in the next doors' office to put together the crucial deals to make it happen.
