Overview
As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment - the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.

Leans Progressive
Primary
The film's central conflict revolves around a universal moral struggle against an authoritarian, genocidal solution to perceived resource scarcity, rather than promoting or critiquing specific political ideologies. The narrative champions the inherent value of life and the rejection of extreme utilitarianism, resulting in a neutral political bias.
The movie features a visibly diverse ensemble cast, drawing from various established superhero franchises. Its narrative primarily focuses on a cosmic conflict, portraying traditional identities neutrally or positively without explicit critique or central DEI themes.
Secondary
The film features Black Widow and Okoye, both highly skilled fighters, who engage in and win close-quarters physical combat against multiple male alien opponents during the Battle of Wakanda.
Heimdall, a character traditionally depicted as white in Norse mythology and Marvel Comics, is portrayed by a Black actor, Idris Elba, in this film, consistent with his portrayal in previous MCU installments.
Avengers: Infinity War does not include any explicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses entirely on the conflict with Thanos and the established heterosexual relationships among the main cast, resulting in no LGBTQ+ portrayal.
All major and legacy characters in Avengers: Infinity War maintain their established genders from the Marvel Comics source material and prior film appearances. No character originally established as one gender is portrayed as a different gender in this film.
