Hasn’t he been pushing for the movie to be made since 2009?
Avengers: Infinity War' Is Structured As A Standalone Movie
By Matthew Mueller - March 16, 2018
Avengers 4 was originally titled Infinity War part 2, but that's all changed, and now Infinity War will not simply be an opening chapter.
The new film is taking on quite a bit story wise when it comes the insanely beloved Infinity Gauntlet saga from the comics, but Infinity War co-director Joe Russo wants fans to know this will not be a two-parter cut in half scenario.
"In the way that all Marvel movies sit as a stand-alone this one's a stand-alone," Russo told Fandango. "You know there's an experiment in serialized storytelling, so it certainly adds a correlation to the Avengers' story, but it's written in a way that all the Marvel movies have a correlation to each other. One thing that we set out from the beginning and said that we wanted to do from the beginning, was that we'd been disappointed about times we've sat in part one of part two films and it feels like they just took out a pair of scissors and cut the movie in half. And the first film isn't really structured in a way where there's a beginning, middle, and an end. It feels more set up like a first act and half of a second act for the second movie."
While certain aspects of the story and characters will carry over from one film to the next (like the Infinity Stones for instance), Infinity War won't feel like a prelude to another movie, but a whole film in itself.
"Avengers 3 has a beginning, middle, and a very definitive end and Avengers 4 does the same," Russo said. "Of course, there will be elements that carry over — and elements of the [Avengers] story that carry over, but I think you'll have a complete emotional experience in each film."
Jeez even Hawkeye’s secrecy has become publicly gold for Marvel.
Poor WB lol
Not so much AntMan because he’s got his film this year but Hawkeye’s whereabouts has elevated the character into popularity!
