With Avengers: Infinity War coming up soon, plenty of theories have floated around on what exactly will go down. Some that make sense, and some that may be nothing more than just a pipedream. One of those pipedreams consists of the Netflix Marvel superheroes; like Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and The Iron Fist, appearing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. They both live in the same world, so why not? Well, Joe Russo explains why it may be out of the realm of possibility. 

 

"We've all considered," Russo said to Premiere.fr. "But the trick is that we already have at least sixty characters with whom we must tell a story! And it's hard enough to communicate with Taika Waititi, Ryan Coogler, Scott Derrickson, Peyton Reed and James Gunn at the same time, not to add all the showrunners and TV crews to this. The latter is also led by totally different people. So it's practically impossible. Our job is to focus on the Marvel film world and offer a satisfying climax."

 

The work that goes into making these movies are certainly complex. So just thinking about adding television characters to the big screen, just makes things even more complicated. Would it be nice to see the Defenders in an upcoming Marvel movie? For sure. However, it seems pretty unlikely at this point. 

Unless they're keeping something under wraps, us fans have to face the facts that our "Netflix Avengers" are staying put where they are. 

Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters April 27th.
