Cast: Nearly every major person of color in the MCU reprises their role here. Many of the newer characters played by POC are killed in order to advance the narrative. POC Actors who meet their demise include Idris Elba, Zoe Saldana, Chadwick Boseman, Vin Diesel, Dave Bautista, Pom Klementieff, and Samuel L. Jackson. Most critics believe many if not all of these characters will come back in later MCU entries. Josh Brolin’s Thanos has his biggest portrayal yet — again, he was originally portrayed by black actor Damion Poitier.

Crew: None of the main creative crew are people of color.
