VIDEO: All Of The Surprising Characters Confirmed For Marvel's Avengers Endgame

In a new exclusive video, CBR catalogs the surprising character returns that will happen in Avengers: Endgame.

Avengers: Endgame will feature the returns of a lot of characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, some of the characters likely to make their returns died in previous films, and -- although it's not clear at this time how they will return -- it's pretty clear that they'll play some role in the film.

A lot of these returns may be made possible through time travel, which many fan theories think will play a major role in defeating Thanos and undoing his snap. It doesn't seem particularly likely that a lot of these characters -- such as Tilda Swinton's Ancient One -- will stick around for long, as it would have pretty major implications for the MCU as a whole. However, time travel might present the chance to have some sweet and touching moments between our heroes and the people they lost.

Check out the video below for a list of all the characters who will return in Endgame.

Those characters killed directly from the snap will likely be revived in some way and play a role in the MCU going forward, which has pretty much been confirmed by Spider-Man: Far From Home and the sequels to Black Panther and Doctor Strange. However, those who weren't killed by the snap -- such as Gamora and Loki -- have much more uncertain fates, so it's possible that they might return only to make their final MCU appearances.
