This is a very rumor filled story and there is no solidity to it at this point but more of a reliable source with evidence to back it up. If you haven’t seen Thor yet (You probably don’t care about The Avengers) then this might be of some shock to you so be warned the rest of this post is a SPOILER!!!!!
SPOILERS AHEAD, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
In Thor we learned that at the end of the credits, Loki is attempting to take the cosmic cube which is in S.H.I.E.L.D’s possession and Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) opens the box with the cube. Also in Thor for a very brief, and by brief I mean maybe a second or two, you can see the Infinity Gauntlet in Oden’s treasure room.
Back at Comic Con last year, Marvel unveiled the Infinity Gauntlet to the public. Was this just a prop for Thor or would this play a bigger role in the universe? I seriously doubt they built this thing just for a few seconds in THOR and others feel the same. We know that the cosmic cube will play a role in the Avengers with Loki possibly using it to summon the alien race The Skrulls.
Where did this cube come from? Well if you have seen the trailers for Captain American, you will notice Red Skull is actually in possesion of the cube at some point in time during the film. How S.H.I.E.L.D obtains it, we will have to wait till the movie comes out to find out.
Here is where the rumor for the new villain comes in. The guys over at Latino Review are reporting that they have spoken with a very reliable source and that THANOS will also play a role in The Avengers and the Infinity Gauntlet will be involved. Now what role he will actually play in the film, they are leaving that a mystery but, with their track record, consider this to be more of a fact then a rumor.
Again this is nothing more but a rumor at this point, but I felt it was a very interesting one with evidence to back it up. Maybe Alex and I can get to the bottom of this mystery at Comic Con this year, where I’m hoping they show a trailer for the film since production started last month.
