Join the community on Reddit for the latest Marvel & DC news!
In the history of superhero films, Avengers: Infinity War stands out as one of the most significant and acclaimed movies. Many fans even argue that it surpasses Endgame, though it’s nearly impossible to view these two films as separate due to their interconnected narratives.
Despite the six years that have passed since its release, discussions about Infinity War, its impact, and its role in shaping the future of the MCU continue to thrive. So, it’s no surprise that we’re still covering this iconic film—it remains highly relevant!
In this report, we’ll delve into a deleted scene from the movie that recently surfaced on social media. This raw footage features Thanos using the Soul Stone against the heroes. While fans find the scene intriguing, there’s a consensus that it’s probably for the best that it didn’t make the final cut!
The battle between the Avengers and Thanos in Infinity War was undeniably epic. With unforgettable moments and expertly choreographed action, fans continue to revisit it fondly. However, not all scenes made the final cut, including the following deleted scene:

As you can see, this raw, unedited version of the scene reveals Thanos using the Soul Stone to separate the heroes from their bodies, making the fight easier for him. Not all the heroes were affected, but those who were—primarily the Guardians—risked death if the separation lasted too long. In this moment, Doctor Strange communicated with Spider-Man, indicating that Mantis could save them, which she ultimately did with her powers.
While this scene certainly adds an interesting twist to the battle and ramps up the action, fans generally feel it doesn’t align with the overall tone of the fight. Here are some of their comments:
it's a cool scene but I get why they cut it, it would take away a lot of the impact for when thanos snaps in regards to the guardians since pretty much all of them except for nebula get dusted so having them almost die just for them to actually die would be really deflating

Pretty cool but glad it was cut definitely didn’t fit the tone of the movie and that scene in particular

Yeh, I heard about this scene.

It's dope, but I do see why they cut it.
It woulda made for a neat callback for No Way Home, tho.

Pete: OMG! I'm gonna die, buglady isn't here!
Strange: Calm down Peter, I can put you back…
Lol 😆
This would’ve been a good piece to leave in for later reference when Mantis…..*(ORIGINAL AVENGERS COMIC BOOK STORYLINE SPOILER ALERT!)* ….is revealed as …..The Celestial Madonna that Kang was in search of! (Very Good story arc by Steve Englehart by the way!)

This would have been cool if Spider-Man wasn't just standing and watching souls being brought back into corpses rather than helping out Iron Man in this solo fight.
