Marvel confirmed that Thanos had destroyed all the six Infinity Stones in Avengers: Endgame. The elemental crystals have played an important role in Avengers: Infinity War and the sequel. MCU has now moved towards Phase 4, fans are expecting these crystals to not factor the upcoming narratives as they do not exist in the primary universe.
It took time for Marvel Universe to confirm the existence of Infinity Stones with Captain America. There they are referred to as Cosmic Cube. The next 4 stones that are mind, reality, power and time are factored in films. After gathering all the six infinity stones, Thanos was able to clasp the life in the universe out of existence. He did so by defeating the heroes in the Endgame. Things have taken a wrong turn when the Mad Titan told them that there is no way to overturn the decimation. Because he demolished the Infinity Stones.
Thanos is Not a Liar, He is To Be Believed
Thanos may be egocentric, but as Nebula (Karen Gillan) announced, he is not a liar. Marvel Cinematic Universe confirmed that the Infinity Stones are clearly destroyed.
There is a new Instagram post that reveals the arrival of Infinity Wars on Disney+. This gives a crash course on Infinity Stones. The post includes the current status of them:
Since the Infinity Stones have apparently fulfilled their purpose, Thanos opted to demolish them so the Decimation would not be undone. At that point, Thanos and the Avengers had not thought of the way to acquire Infinity Stones. It was until Ant-Man brought the idea of time travel. While Nebula testified for his adoptive father’s integrity, Thanos was shown eliminating the Infinity Stones. This has left the door open for Marvel Studios to stroll back on this plot point.
Though Joe and Anthony Russo have given the idea that explains, “Thanos only reduced the stones to the atomic level. The stones are still present in the universe.” But with the latest confirmation from Marvel, it is easier to say the gems could make their way back only if they are taken from another timeline or past.
Marvel Studios is in no mood, as of now, to bring these stones back to the universe, after the destruction in Endgame. However, it is possible that the upcoming film reveals the history of the crystals.
