¿? But: "He will do his homework."
Exactly. The periphrastic future in go uses the form of the infinitive with to. The periphrastic future in will does not. Doesn't stop the version without the to from being an infinitive. I changed the example sentence to avoid using go in both the future marker and the base verb of the sentence.
