HELA IN INFINITY WAR THEORIES

Cate Blanchett is playing the Goddess of Death, Hela, later this year in Thor Ragnarok. Many people have come out with theories of Hela's role in the film and the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), especially Avengers Infinity War.

So the first theory states that Hela is going to be the replacement for the physical embodiment of Death in the Infinity War film, which seems like it is going to be inspired by the Infinity Gauntlet story. So in that story, Thanos wants to impress Mistress Death, to do this he plans to wipe out half the life of the universe. To carry out this task, Thanos assembles the Infinity gems, however, his plan is interfered with by the Avengers.

What fans are proposing is that Hela is going to be the replacement of Death in the MCU, she is the one Thanos wants to impress. It makes sense, as she is the goddess of Death, and it will save a new character from being developed in the film. It works out in favor of the film and the cinematic universe.

The other theory is that Hela dies in Thor Ragnarok. Killing the love of Thanos would send him on a personal vendetta against Thor, and the other Avengers for killing his love. This would bring the story on a slightly more personal level and not have Thanos be another stereotypical bad guy, wanting to kill the Avengers, for just the reason of destroying the universe. If this is the case, Thanos is the Avenger, avenging Hela's death.

Anyway, I would really like to hear your thoughts on these theories of Hela in the MCU, please comment below your thoughts on them below, and any other theories you may have on Hela in Thor Ragnarok and beyond. As always thanks for reading, take care.
