Many Marvel fans around the world haven’t seen Avengers: Endgame just yet but, to cheer them up, Ant-Man star Paul Rudd is here to share an exclusive sneak peak of himself watching an exclusive sneak peak of the movie. No, really.
The studio’s done its best to keep a tight lid on spoilers for the film, with directors the Russo brothers creating the hashtag #DontSpoilTheEndgame to combat the tirade of trolls spilling things on Twitter. It didn’t help matters that a huge leak arrived online last week, but many have simply avoided being spoiled by taking a break from social media all together.
For those who have seen the film, Rudd’s exaggerated reactions in this promo are pretty much a spot-on replica of your internal monologue while watching. Endgame is a real rollercoaster ride that’s at turns hilarious, thrilling, shocking, heartbreaking and more. If that description is as far as you want to delve into spoiler territory, fair enough. If you’re curious for more info though, here’s a list of every cameo, an idea of how it sets up future movies and, the big one, how it wraps up the stories of the original six heroes.
At least the wait is almost over, though, as Endgame lands in US theaters today and so far, the critics love it. Described as “epic, unpredictable and emotional”, the reactions have been overwhelmingly positive, as the film debuted at a mighty 97% on Rotten Tomatoes, though it’s often labelled as possessing some flaws.
