What really happened during the Avengers: Endgame LA press conference

AVENGERS: ENDGAME opens in theaters everywhere on April 26th!

What really happened during the Avengers: Endgame LA press conference
It is the most anticipated movie release of the year. We have been waiting one year to see what happens after Thanos decided to snap his fingers and wiped out half the universe. It was such a pleasure receiving the email with the invite for the junket, which I have to tell you it was all about a secret location, no Geo tagging and no live feed sharing in our social media chanels.
In attendance were ​ 
  • Moderator: Jon Favreau
  • Robert Downey Jr. (“Tony Stark / Iron-Man”)
  • Chris Evans (“Steve Rogers / Captain America”)
  • Chris Hemsworth (“Thor”)
  • Scarlett Johansson (“Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow”)
  • Mark Ruffalo (“Bruce Banner / The Hulk”)
  • Jeremy Renner (“Clint Baron / Hawkeye”)
  • Brie Larson (“Carol Danvers / Captain Marvel”)
  • Don Cheadle (“James Rhodes / War Machine”)
  • Paul Rudd (“Scott Lang / Ant-Man”)
  • Karen Gillan (“Nebula”)
  • Danai Gurira (“Okoye”)
  • Directors Anthony & Joe Russo
  • Producer Kevin Feige

The set up for the junket was pretty similar to the one last year for Infinity War. Except, that there were a lot of empty seats. Those empty seats represented the "fallen" Avengers. It felt a little sad to be honest, but the actors did a great job at keeping us all entertained, while avoiding any spoilers. Even moderator Jon Favreau said: “Post-Snap, there’s a few empty seats, so I’d like to welcome back the people that you see here onstage.”

One of the best part of the day was able to screen 10 minutes of Avengers Endgame. The clips had no introduction and were showed before the junket. All I can say we were all speechless in the theater

Interesting things we learned

  • The Russo brothers had a hard time finding a word to describe the movie, but finally came out with  “cathartic"
  • In order to not give out any spoilers, most of the questions were about what being part of the Avengers has meant to the cast
  • Scarlett Johansson said that the best part of playing Black Widow during the years is seeing how much the character has evolved since her first appearance in “Iron Man 2.”
  • "There’s a sadness to this press conference,” Mark Ruffalo said: “It’s the family you wish you had, in a way. There’s something very bittersweet about this moment. As actors, we’re like vagabonds. We kind of bounce around. We have these intense relationships and then you don’t see anybody until you get nominated for something or you’re nominated in something and you end up at an awards ceremony.
  • Brie Larson said: “I had to stumble and figure out who this character was, with no script for this and no script for Captain Marvel, and perform for the first time in front of legends". In case you didn't know Captain Marvel was shot after Avengers: Endgame.
  • Avengers: Endgame will close out Marvel’s Infinity Saga, which comprises of 22 films. ​To that Director Joe Russo said: “With Endgame, we get to finish off one of the grandest experiments in movie history. What we’re hoping for is that people feel satisfied with the conclusion.”
  • Anthony Russo said that "We are very committed to the ending of that movie. We think that stories lose their meaning and relevance and resonance unless there are real stakes.”
  • Karen Gillan said “It’s maybe safe to say she (Nebula) suffers from some daddy issues because her dad is Thanos, so who wouldn’t?” She said. “I’m excited for her to face the source of this abuse.”

Funny moments

The funniest moments for me were the following
  • Paul Rudd said he has seen the trailers: "So I do know that I’m in it"
  • By a raise of hands, the cast was asked whether they preferred a bearded or not-bearded Chris Evans. Majority said bearded Captain America, however we loved Paul Rudd, because he raised his hand twice. Robert Downey Jr. did not vote (and now we wonder which cap he likes the most...)
  • Chris Evans made a comment about the Avengers being like a real-life family. Robert Downey Jr. fired back, using recent real-life events. Robert Downey Jr. called out Chris Evans for not attending Paul Rudd’s birthday party the night before, and then Chris Evans replied: “I didn’t make it. It was a long day yesterday. Sorry, Paul.”
  • "This all feels like a test” said Captain Marvel actress, Brie Larson. All the actors were really trying not to give out any spoilers and Brie Larson fell the questions we kind of a trap.

The costumes

One really cool thing during the junket is that they have props from the movie and costumes as well. Here they are for your enjoyment

The merchandise

Other cool thing about attending the junkets is that we get to see all the cool toys and merchandise related to the movie. Can I say I want them all?
