Avengers: Infinity War Had A 45-Minute Scene Which Got Deleted; It Featured How Thanos Got His First Infinity Scene!

All four movies of the Avengers franchise have created a permanent fanbase globally. Out of the lot, most of the discussions are usually around Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. While people love the action sequences, stunts and twists, they have many questions about the time machine and infinity stones. One major question is – How did Thanos get the first infinity stone, the power stone? Comic artist and Thanos creator Jim Starlin has finally spilled the beans. Scroll on to learn more.

Thanos was seen in the Avengers franchise in the movie Avengers: Infinity War. He was after all the six infinity stones – Space, Mind, Reality, Power, Time, and Soul stones. He found the space stone from Loki in Asgard at the film’s beginning. While he got the remaining four from different battles, he already had Power Stone with him.

The Power Stone was last seen in Xandar in Guardians of the Galaxy. As per Jim Starlin, Avengers: Infinity War would have shown Thanos acquiring the stone in Xandar after a battle in a 45-min sequence. But, the makers decided to chop that bit and start the film with Thanos torturing Thor and the Asgardians. While talking to the Near Mint Condition, Jim said, “About a month before the movie came out, I got an email or something from Joe Russo saying, ‘the 45 minutes of Thanos that we had at the beginning of ‘Infinity War,’ we had it cut.’ There was a whole sequence of him getting the first gem, and they had to cut that out.”
