50 free Avengers: Infinity War trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
This Avengers: Infinity War trivia quiz covers the 2018 film that brought ten years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to a head and ended with half of all life turned to dust. The plot questions follow Thanos and his Children from the Asgardian refugee ship through New York, Knowhere, Nidavellir, Vormir, Titan and Wakanda, and cover where each stone was hidden, who died to give it up, and who is left standing on the battlefield when the credits roll. The harder half covers how it was made: the comics it draws on, the working title, the first film ever shot entirely on IMAX digital cameras, the Scottish locations, the rice terraces behind Thanos's final sunrise, the actor who replaced Hugo Weaving, the death scene that was written to be shorter, the record-breaking trailer, and the box office milestones that made it the first superhero film past $2 billion. Easy questions suit anyone who has seen it once; the expert ones will test even committed MCU fans. Every answer was checked against the film's Wikipedia article and its cited sources before publishing. For the wider universe, try our Avengers, Marvel and MCU quizzes.
