Avengers: Endgame: The Russo Brothers reveal "original title"; SiriusXM spoiler-filled interview details movie events

Almost two weeks have passed since the EPIC and EMOTIONAL finale of Marvel Studios' "Infinity Saga" hit with "Avengers: Endgame" - the 22nd film in the long running Marvel Cinematic Universe that picks up where 2018's "Avengers: Infinity War" left off and sees the surviving heroes make a stand to do "Whatever It Takes" to undo the decimation Thanos caused with the power of the Infinity Stones.


According to a report by Superherohype, during an interview with the HappySadConfused podcast, The Russo Brothers revealed that the "original title" going for Endgame turned out to be "Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet" - which is the title of the 1991 Marvel Comics miniseries "The Infinity Gauntlet" - the story that inspired most of Infinity War and Endgame. Obviously it was one of those things to throw off suspicion that one of Doctor Strange's last words "We're in the Endgame now" was a hint at the title.

Then there is this AWESOME Spoiler-Filled Endgame interview with the director brothers by SiriusXM - which you have to watch.

The Russo Brothers' Spoiler-Filled 'Endgame' Interview Avengers: Endgame is now playing in cinemas worldwide.

Kevin Feige dubs the first three phases of the MCU as "The Infinity Saga"

After releasing the covers to their issue spotlighting one of the most anticipated films of the year, Empire Magazine's feature on "Avengers: Endgame" has come online - and along with it a few trickles of information on why certain things were done to present this kind of scenario where the surviving heroes - including the original six members of the Avengers - were the ones to survive the Snap (which in itself was planned for the beginning of this movie, but instead was kept for the end of last year's Avengers: Infinity War).

One of the glaring reveals from Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige was that Endgame - the 22nd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe  - would be the culmination of what is dubbed as "The Infinity Saga". That means from Phases 1 to 3 - this journey from Iron Man to Avengers: Endgame will make up the 11 year story of how Earth's Mightiest Heroes gathered, how other parts of the universe were explored, and inevitably how Thanos orchestrated events that led to him collecting the Infinity Stones and bringing us to where we are right now. It is truly epic, and you can bet that there will be a box set collection in the future.

Feige said:

"We wanted to bring to a conclusion a series of movies in a way that had never been done before. Harry Potter had an ending because there were only so many books. Lord of the Rings too. But we thought, 22 movies in, wouldn’t it be fun to bring some finality to the storyline.”

You can read the rest of the bits of the Empire Magazine interview feature from Slash Film and Comic Book Movie.

Avengers: Endgame will be released in theaters on April 24 internationally and April 26 in the US.

The Russo Brothers are set to appear in "The Game Awards"; Avengers 4 Trailer to be shown then?

It looks like hype and anticipation for the next Avengers movie will skyrocket again next week if The Russo Brothers have anything to reveal about it, as Joe and Anthony Russo have been confirmed as livestream guests for this year's "The Game Awards" - as confirmed by host and mastermind Geoff Keighley on his official Twitter page! The Russos have been quite busy doing final production work on the as of yet untitled Avengers sequel, even going as far as to not say anything regarding the mysterious MCU film during a Q&A segment following a special screening of "Avengers: Infinity War" in Archlight Cinemas (which you an read about in detail from Superherohype here).

Having The Russos appear in "The Game Awards" - one of the last major events and one highlighting the best and latest video games out there - only furthers the chances that the very first "Avengers 4" trailer will appear there. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige did reassure fans that the first trailer "would come out before the end of 2018", so this is one of those spots before the year ends. Let's hope it happens when The Game Awards broadcasts on December 6 at 8:30pm EST/ 5:30 PST.
