Young Avengers

Phase 3 movie

After the rise of the Avengers, a new generation of young heroes begins to emerge. Patriot, Stature, Wiccan, Speed, Hulkling and Hawkeye find themselves drawn together when the criminal scientist Mister Hyde begins distributing MGH, a dangerous substance capable of artificially enhancing human abilities. Their first attempt to stop him nearly ends in disaster, but before they can give up, a mysterious teenager from the future arrives. Calling himself Iron Lad, Nathaniel Richards claims that the world will soon need heroes capable of standing on their own. He helps the young heroes understand their powers and leads them toward Hyde’s main operation, while refusing to explain why he is being hunted by another version of himself. The truth eventually becomes clear: Nathaniel’s future self is Kang the Conqueror, but Iron Lad has travelled back in time because he refuses to become the man he is destined to be. While Kang briefly attempts to retrieve him, the true threat remains Mister Hyde, who plans to use MGH to create an army of enhanced humans under his control. The young heroes assault his laboratory and face Hyde after he injects himself with an enormous dose of the substance. Working together, they defeat him and destroy his operation. Having proven themselves without the Avengers, the heroes officially adopt a new name: the Young Avengers. Post-credit scene: In the distant future, Kang watches a recording of the Young Avengers’ final battle. He switches to another recording showing the Avengers fighting Galactus. He studies both battles in silence before quietly saying, “So this is what they become.”
