Back in October we were thrilled to announce that Katherine Langford, known for her 13 Reasons Why and Love Simon roles had been cast in the coveted Avengers Endgame movie, which was a pretty big deal for the rising Aussie actress. Hannah Baker would have been chuffed. Fans were speculating about the role she would play and whether it was on the side of or against Thanos. With just about every other cameo being filled by the Russo brothers, it was the last opportunity to get a spot in the Phase 3 MCU, unless you count Spider-Man: Far From Home . We don’t count that because Tom Holland cannot be contained even in his own movie.
Now that most of you will be up to speed, it’s safe to assume that there’s no spoilers here. She’s no more present than the dust at the end of Infinity War.
Fans demanded answers when she invited questions on her Insta Story over the weekend.

Imagine our confusion when we watched 3 hours of every character that we grew to love over the last eleven years, appreciating the cameos grand and small. We assumed it would be of the blink-and-you’ll-miss it variety, considering that the final battle had as many combatants as Lord of the Rings. We squinted and scanned, but saw no sign of her.
Yes, we stayed until the final credits just to be sure. There was no end scene, because as the title suggests, this WAS the endgame.
There’s hope that she may appear in a new Marvel TV show, or that somehow she crawls out of the quantum realm.
So far that’s the only logical explanation that we can surmise for her disappearance.
