That would ruin the legacy of both characters.

They can put Thanos in the What If...? series if they do not want to taint his excellence.

The MCU isn’t a self contained 10 years of story that ended with Phase 3. It’s going to continue what was started in those first 20+ movies and expand upon those stories and characters, even the “dead” ones. Yeah, this universe Stark will stay dead, but a development of his character as an AI, like in the comics, would not only be awesome for a lot of fans, but be kind of fitting for a guy who created AI in the MCU.  I think it’s a certainty we’ll see or hear RDJ return as AI in a MCU Ironheart. 

Same goes for Thanos IMO. He’s too awesome a character to leave dead.

The Infinity Saga was.

Stark and Thanos should both remain untouched. They were already focal points for a decade.

RDJ and Brolin should never return in any way, shape, or form outside of What If...?

"Death is what gives life meaning", as I have already repeated.

The Infinity Saga filtered down was essentially Thanos’ quest for the Infinity Stones. However, Thanos the character is, or should be, more than that. I think that’s something that can be explored.

He really shouldn't. He was, at his core, a genocidal mad man. His story is complete. The MCU would be smart to keep it that way.

What a way to ring in 2021 and Phase 4.

Marvel Studios has released its New Year's Eve Musical Show online, and you can watch it! Hosted by Chinese bilibili, the Musical event was held over in China, which has already celebrated the end of 2020 and the start of 2021. Now other Marvel fans across the globe can join with the Chinese fans by bringing in the new year to the sounds of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, played by a full orchestra. As you can see (and hear), the performance was pretty epic, with the orchestra bringing grandeur to the sounds, while a light show dazzled the eye.

 

The production of this "Musical Show" is truly something to marvel at (pun). The whole thing just looks great, from the laser and lighting effects to the various MCU visual odes that we get. The progression of the musical score is perfectly timed with the visual build, delivering a journey through some of the most familiar melodies and overtures of the MCU films, building to that epic (and now classic) Avengers theme, which is now known all across the world.

 

The way the stage show builds is also classic MCU marketing, starting with the logo, then a teaser of the Avengers members behind red slats, which raise at the climactic moment to reveal (statues? Holograms?) of each original Avengers member. It's truly an entire show packed into five minutes. Marvel fans can (and no doubt will) find some fun ways to use this performance to countdown the last minutes of 2020. If you can time the ball-drop to when the conductor raises his fist with his Infinity Gauntlet on, you win.
