Avengers: Endgame Trailers Contained Fake, Old, and Edited Scenes

*WARNING: ENDGAME SPOILERS AHEAD*

Avengers: Endgame will most likely be the biggest movie of the year. Its opening weekend alone put it in the top 20 highest grossing movies of all time, and as of May 8, 2019 it was at number 2, second only to Avatar. It was a truly incredible movie, full of surprises and twists sure to leave viewers dumbfounded. Due to the large scale of the movie, Marvel studios had to keep a lot under wraps. To do this, they altered some scenes in the trailer and filled in some old ones from the past. Here is a list of scenes from the trailer, that weren’t exactly a part of Endgame.

 

  • CAPTAIN AMERICA’S SHIELD

 

      • In the trailer, you may remember seeing a bloody, beaten up Cap strapping his shield to his arm, ready to fight Thanos. While this scene was included in the movie, the trailer scene was altered slightly. In the movie, Thanos had already beaten down Cap quite a bit, and half of his shield was torn off. However, in the trailer, the shield remains intact.

 

  • BLACK WIDOW’S TARGET SCENE

 

      • A scene in the trailer depicts Black Widow, (presumably at the Avengers HQ), quickly firing a pistol at a target. This scene was most likely a filler to have a longer trailer time, as it is not included in the film.  

 

  • THOR

 

      • The trailer shows Thor charging up a lightning blast and wielding Stormbreaker, but this never happened in the movie.
