In this article, we will examine 5 instances of the Avengers sabotaging their own mission. From personal vendettas to impulsive decisions.
In “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” Tony Stark’s overconfidence and arrogance led to the creation of Ultron, a rogue AI with the intent to destroy humanity.
However, his lack of caution and foresight ultimately led to Ultron becoming a greater threat than the original mission to defeat Hydra.
In “Thor: Ragnarok,” Thor’s recklessness and impulsive nature led to the destruction of his home planet Asgard, which was initially the mission to prevent.
In “Captain America: Civil War,” the Avengers were divided due to infighting and a lack of trust amongst team members.
In “WandaVision,” Wanda Maximoff’s deep grief and desire to bring back her lover, Vision, led her to create an alternate reality within the town of Westview.
In “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” Scott Lang’s accidental release of a quantum virus known as “Ghost” led to a chain of events that sabotaged his mission to save Janet van Dyne.
Scott’s unwitting release of the virus placed both himself and Hope in danger, as they were pursued by both the government and a criminal organization seeking to obtain the virus.
