Yeah, I hope this means we will get some of the female secondary characters in there. Not just making a joke about it like Age of Ultron. I don't expect to see all of them get central roles, but it is a good acknowledgement of how big the Marvel Universe is.
Which is the reason why I won't (likely) be complaining about the long lengths of the Infinity War movies. This has been built up so much that it truly is epic. And that, like Lord of the Rings, actually justifies the more complicated story and longer length.

And yes, if a few years from now if I am complaining about Infinity War part 1's length, I expect someone to quote this post.

I'm imagining scenes like the battles in Kingdom Come (It's DC, but whatever) where the background is just loaded full of characters that the average person might never have heard of but the true hardcore fans could spend a day searching the page and identifying them.

That would actually be awesome. I'm a big fan of Marvel's more obscure, more insane characters. It'd be cool to see some characters that would never get a movie otherwise cameo in the background.

Yeah! When are we getting an Impossible Man movie??? Oh wait... he probably would fall under Fox since he liked to annoy the Fantastic Four...

Getting an Impossible Man movie?  That would be Im...er...um...why, really, really, really hard to do. ;)

I'm actually surprised Fox hasn't just given the rights to F4 over to Marvel saying, "Here. We can't do a darned thing with it."

There is bad blood there for sure.
FINE

Well they don't say 67 superheroes. Some of those scenes may be like- Jane Foster giving Thor a goodbye kiss before battle or something.
I would love a scene where this all sounds familiar somehow...

Pak-Man

That would put Natalie Portman in form-fitting battle armor, which I would not mind one bit. :^)

I'm really looking forward to seeing who's going to be Captain Marvel... but I'm kinda bummed we gotta wait another 3 years to see it.

Any chance it'll be Christina Hendricks as Carol Danvers?  ;D

Power Girl maybe.

I think they should go with Mackenzie Davis.

Well, this shows roughly 60, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were all superheroes or 'hero-related' (e.g. Agents of SHIELD).  [Of course, one has to substitute Guardians for X-Men or the FF, and fill in a couple to make up the difference, but basically it's not outrageous (well - story wise - for films it is ;)).]

Spoiler

I am still going to stay (firmly) on record that Adam Warlock needs to be introduced and well established before Infinity War begins (hopefully in BOTH GotGalaxy2 and maybe even snuck into Ragnarok).  Because without him, Infinity War would be like filming "The Killing Joke" without Batman.

Here is 56 already established characters:



Didn't include most non-hero humans, and one assumes some more will be introduced in the meantime. (Very quickly put together list from a wiki, deleting dead characters, WW2 characters etc. Might have left some in that I shouldn't have or missed some).
