What’s better than being the biggest film on planet Earth? Being the biggest film on planet Earth in terms of running time? Well that’s what Avengers 4 is really tryna go for – at least in the superhero genre.
Following on from where we were left behind, the as yet untitled Avengers 4 will see our heroes continue their battle against the evil Thanos who, I think enough time has passed now to say this, did some very naughty things in Infinity War.
I’m talking about violence. When I said ‘naughty’ it sounded a bit dirty, didn’t it?
Anyhow, yeah Avengers 4 is going to be very very very long. The longest superhero film maybe of all time.
Co-Director Joe Russo said as per ScreenRant:
I’ll say it could easily be a three hour film, but I think that we’re very hard on the material, we like it to play at a certain pace. I’m sure that we’ll squeeze it. The running time on Avengers 4 is currently sitting right at three hours. We’ll see if that holds.
Bob Iger, meanwhile, the Disney CEO, confirmed Avengers 4 might not be the last we’re likely to see, which means we might be able to see the growth of the Russo brothers’ apparent child.
Not much is known about 2019’s Avengers 4 considering the huge hype around box-office smash Infinity War, but the people want it. The numbers show.
During an earnings call, Iger revealed a cheeky little bit of info regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
He said:
We meet on a regular basis with our Marvel team, and we’ve plotted out Marvel movies that will take us well into the next decade.
I’m guessing we will try our hand at what I’ll call a new franchise beyond Avengers, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t see more Avengers down the road. We just haven’t made any announcements about that.
Given the popularity of the characters and given the popularity of the franchise, I don’t think people should conclude there will never be another Avengers movie.
Infinity War opened with an estimated $630 million worldwide, smashing previous-holder The Fate of the Furious with $542 million which overtook the record set in 2015 by The Force Awakens, and its $248 million opening.
So what we all predicting for Avengers 4? Surely it’ll be the film that makes the most money ever? So much so, everyone else stops making movies.
