This is intended as a sort of what-do-we-know/speculation thread. Pile together what can be gleaned from Infinity War, Ant-Man & the Wasp, Captain Marvel (when it comes out), and stuff on social media.
Yes, it seems time travel is involved. We have stuff from the set during filming where they recreated the Chitauri invasion of New York from the first Avengers. Tony is disguised as one of the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents escorting Loki, and is talking to him. About what, we wonder. Given that the events of that film revolved around two of the Infinity Stones, I'm wondering if that's germane.
I am one of those who refuses to believe Loki's dead, regardless of what they say. In Dark World, that was supposed to be his actual death, but they reconsidered and rewrote it so it was him faking them out. But that's the standard set -- when Loki dies, the illusion drops, revealing his true Frost Giant traits. He didn't in Infinity War. So.
A bunch of fan speculation as to the title of this film is out there. The Russos commented that one fan speculation -- "Avengers 4ever/Forever" -- was closer than the others, leading some to wonder if it might be something like "Eternity War". As counterpoint to Infinity, as reference to the entity Eternity in Marvel comics, who Thanos replaced as the embodiment of the universe in the original comic miniseries, and potentially involved in the time-travel element of the story.
What else do we know/suspect/deduce? Some people keep saying it will be five years after Infinity War, but there seems to be no primary source for that rumor beyond the good old "anonymous source".
