The latest promo for ‘Avengers: Endgame’ is a harsh reminder of who we lost

With Avengers: Endgame just a month away from coming out and Marvel is reminding us of the heroes we’ve lost in Infinity War. Each actor who had an Instagram or Twitter account posted their character posters with the words “Avenge the Fallen” written over their faces. All posts also had the caption “1 Month. #AvengersEndgame” which refers to the worldwide premiere happening on April 26th. One clever thing Marvel did was colour the posters of the MCU heroes we assume are still alive while leaving those in grey we thought we’ve lost already (Hey! We’re still not losing hope.)

There are fake footage in the ‘Avengers: Endgame’

If you’ve been losing your mind trying to decipher the Avengers: Endgame trailer, we’re going to have to tell you to stop obsessing. One of the film’s directors Joe Russo admitted that there are fake scenes in the trailer to throw off fans from the movie’s true plot. The Russos want to make sure that they don’t give away the story ahead of Endgame’s premiere. They want fans to be truly surprised when they hit the theater next month. While talking to Empire Magazine, Joe said, “We talked about all scales of marketing. The thing that’s most important to us is that we preserve the surprise of the narrative. When I was a kid and saw The Empire Strikes Back at 11am on the day it opened… it so profoundly moved me because I didn’t know a damn thing about the story I was going to watch. We’re trying to replicate that experience.” And we personally think that’s a good way to enjoy a film, especially one as big as this one.

Marvel reissues ‘Avengers: Endgame’ poster after Danai Gurira’s credit omission

A few days ago, Avengers: Endgame got a new trailer and movie poster, which made fans more excited about the upcoming film. The poster featured all the surviving Marvel Cinematic Universe heroes, but fans noticed that Black Panther’s Danai Gurira, who plays Dora Milaje’s general Okoye, was missing from the credits at the top of the poster. Instead, her name was included in the bottom credit block, alongside Gwyneth Paltrow and Benedict Wong. Fans took offense to the omission because she is the only star in the poster that didn’t get above-the-title billing. It got exacerbated by the fact that she’s the only actress of color to appear on the poster.

As Polygon points out, credit billing in posters is a “complex process” that involves a lot of negotiation by agents and the like over things like who earns a “with,” an “and,” or even how big or small names appear on the poster. But fans weren’t having this treatment, especially with MCU having had a predominantly white male presence in the past (which is something they are trying to fix moving forward). Marvel responded and reissued the poster with Gurira’s name now appears before Bradley Cooper and Josh Brolin. It was announced with a tweet that says, “She should have been up there all this time.”

Avengers: Endgame is set to hit cinemas on April 26th.
