This Minor Endgame Moment Is Actually Pretty Major
Warning! Full SPOILERS ahead for Avengers: Endgame!
Avengers: Endgame, the epic culmination of Marvel’s 22-film Infinity Saga, involves a major narrative time-jump for its characters, resurrecting those who fell in Avengers: Infinity War five years later.
The MCU timeline had generally been lined up with the year that an MCU movie came out. So that’s why the Battle of New York is definitively set in 2012, the year Marvel’s The Avengers was released. Of course, Spider-Man: Homecoming infamously mucked things up when it opened in 2017 by saying the Battle of New York happened eight years earlier, which would have set it in 2009 instead of 2012. And just to make things even more confusing, it turned out that Homecoming was actually set in 2016, the same year as Captain America: Civil War meaning the Avengers would have had to take place in 2008. But Endgame clearly reaffirms that the Battle of Manhattan took place in 2012 so Spider-Man: Homecoming messed up.

How Avengers: Endgame Picks Up On THAT Infinity War Plot Thread
Warning: This story contains FULL SPOILERS for Avengers: Endgame!
Thanks to a little time travel to the year 2014, Gamora plays a key role in Avengers: Endgame despite being killed by Thanos in Infinity War. However, her whereabouts at the end of the movie raise some questions, so here’s a breakdown of what happened to her and if the original Gamora is dead or alive.

First things first...
Is the Original Gamora Still Dead?
Unfortunately, all signs point to the original Gamora still being dead. Thanos did kill her to trade her soul for the Soul Stone in Infinity War, but with all the time travel hijinks, Black Widow also dying for the Soul Stone, and the Hulk snapping the Vanished back to life, it’s not unreasonable to think the original Gamora could have also found a way back to the land of the living. But as Hulk explained, he tried his hardest to bring Black Widow back to no avail, so we can assume the same rule applies to the original Gamora. It seems when a soul is traded for the Soul Stone, it’s a permanent exchange that not even the combined Infinity Stones can reverse.
