Did you know that in Avengers: Endgame?

Transcript

00:00Did you know that in Avengers, Endgame, Tony already knew that only Clint or Natasha would

00:04return alive from the mission to Vormir? That's because he was present when Nebula

00:07explained that Thanos had taken Gamora to Vormir and returned with the Soul Stone,

00:10but without her. This means he had enough information to deduce that the mission to

00:19Vormir required a sacrifice in exchange for the stone. But why didn't he tell the team?

00:23Tony allowed Clint and Natasha to be the ones chosen to go to Vormir because he knew they

00:27shared a strong bond. They were the only ones who genuinely loved each other within the team.

00:31If it had been another pair, they probably wouldn't have been able to complete the mission.

00:34Also, when Nebula brings this up a second time, she doesn't clearly state that Gamora was

00:38sacrificed, she just says that she died on Vormir. The only original Avenger not present

00:42in that scene is precisely Tony Stark. In other words, Tony knew that probably only one of them

00:46would come back alive.
