Idris Elba has never been particularly well utilised in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and while that sort of changed with Thor: Ragnarok, many fans are hoping that he'll have a large role in Avengers: Infinity War. The actor is, after all, named with the rest of the main cast members on the movie's poster and that surely means Heimdall is going to have something noteworthy to do in the Marvel threequel.

Could that be...dying? We know that Thanos attacks Thor's ship on the hunt for the Space Stone and kills pretty much every Asgardian in the process. This battle will end with The Hulk arriving in Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum and the God of Thunder being discovered by the Guardians of the Galaxy but that leaves the fates of characters like Korg, Meik, and Valkyrie very much up in the air for now.

As for Heimdall, the prevailing fan theory is that he could actually be the Soul Stone but regardless, it definitely appears as if Proxima Midnight has his sword by her feet here. Bear in mind that various Thor toys have also shown the hero with that and it really does seem as if Heimdall will lose that weapon and probably die. What do you guys think of this possible plot spoiler? Is that the sword among the rubble or is this theory incorrect? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.

🤔 something curious in the new trailer ⏩ it could be Heimdall's sword that sword next to Loki? What do you think? ⤵ ☞ I found this theory in @marvel.hd ↩ #TheGeekPower ↩ . . .

Meh.

@PeterDarker121 - lets turn a negative into a positive with this new “Team Derrell” MCU video.

It’s not even his goddamn sword it literally looks nothing like it. All you have to do is look at the hilt to know.

SonOfAGif - 3/18/2018, 9:47 AM

@AstonishingArachnid - Exactly. Wouldn't surprise me if Heimdall & Valkyrie are going to appear in Wakanda to fight. Three Asgardians fighting for Earth would be phenomenal.

I think Loki will be the one to die. Heimdall could also die.

Btw, have you guys seen these tweets from Amell?
