Benedict Cumberbatch Has Some Fun Ideas About Existence After Thanos

Now , like , a lot of characters are probably almost certainly coming back in Avengers 4 . But , in the meantime , what is demise by snap really like for the heroes , villains , and innocent who get ill-fated during Avengers : Infinity War ?

Well , obviously , it ’s not a whole lot : they ’re beat . But for their clay , Cumberbatch , while talking with Jimmy Fallon , latterly , suggests that there is , a niggling bit , life sentence after demise . When Fallon asks if he ’s in Avengers 4 , Cumberbatch replies , “ I ’m dust , sister . I ’m just out there . I ’m in the ethyl ether . I ’m believably part of your food chain . I ’m in your stomach somewhere . ”

I might be read too much into this , but that ’s just a fun double . All that dust , uh , it had to go somewhere , right ? perhaps Cumberbatch is right-hand : maybe all the horde of detritus - ified living things are now mingled with the food and nature and everything else . That ’s one method of resource redistribution , I guess . All things in stark musical harmony .
