Is Loki Bruce Banner in Infinity War?
Banner isn’t actually the only character missing from the film. In reality, there’s actually a fairly strong case for it; not only does it fit rather well with the narrative of Avengers: Infinity War, actually solving some of the movie’s more awkward plot points, but it also has some basis in the original comics.
Does Loki die for real in Infinity War?
Yes, he is definitely killed in Infinity War. Although obviously, he’s also very not dead. Hiddleston apparently said farewell to the character in 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War when the surviving Asgardians were attacked in space by Thanos, who choked Loki to death after an attempted double-cross.
Does Loki fear Hulk?
Of course, fans know from Thor: Ragnarok and Avengers: Infinity War that Loki never gets any kind of comeuppance on Hulk. Loki was, in fact, still terrified of the Hulk in Ragnarok when he was revealed to be the Grandmaster’s (Jeff Goldblum) champion on Sakaar.
Does Loki die in Infinity War?
If that’s the case, any death in Infinity War is open to question. Including, of course, as always, the death of Loki. The death of the God of Mischief was hardly unexpected; he was known to possess the Tesseract, and that meant he was standing in Thanos’s firing line.
Was Loki fooling everyone the whole time?
Former entertainment journalist Josh Dickey has an interesting theory that Loki was really fooling everyone the whole time. Again. And is alive and well posing as Banner. It’s a surprising theory, but taking it a step deeper reveals there’s quite a strong flow of argument to it. Let’s take a look at the evidence:
Did Loki steal the identity of the Hulk?
According to this fan theory, Thor’s tricksy half-brother Loki didn’t shuffle off this mortal coil after his ill-fated tete-a-tete with Thanos. Rather, he straight-up stole the identity of one of of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, the Hulk.
Does Bruce Banner know too much about the Infinity Stones?
The final point here is that Bruce Banner knows far too much about Infinity Stones – more than he has any right to. He also seems to remember everything the Hulk experienced on the Asgardian vessel, and that’s just odd; previous films have established that Banner can remember nothing from his time as the Hulk.
