10 Easter Eggs You May’ve Missed In Avengers: Endgame

Community Cameos

Speaking of the Russos, the filmmakers are known for working on hit comedy Community back in the day and they’ve always been keen to tip their hat to the series in their Marvel films. Jim Rash previously turned up in Civil War, for instance, as an M.I.T. professor who badgers Tony for extra funding. Endgame, meanwhile, features not just one, but two further cameos from stars of the show.

First up, you might have spotted Ken Jeong behind some glasses and a beard as the security guard of the parking lot in which Scott Lang finds himself when he emerges from the Quantum Realm in his van. Later on in the movie, Yvette Nicole Brown gets more to do as an employee of the S.H.I.E.L.D. base who shares an elevator with an incognito Cap and Iron Man and ends up ratting them out to the authorities.

Familiar Faces At Camp Lehigh

Speaking of the S.H.I.E.L.D. base in question, this is Camp Lehigh, a location that previously featured in both The First Avenger and The Winter Soldier as the camp where Steve trained in WWII and which he later visited with Black Widow in the present. It’s a place with a lot of MCU history, then, which explains why there are so many familiar faces there in its Endgame appearance.

Most notably, Tony reunites with his father Howard Stark at the base, with John Slattery reprising his role from Iron Man 2, Ant-Man and Civil War via de-aging tech. We also get our first glimpse of Peggy Carter in the film here. Less noticeable though is James D’Arcy’s Edwin Jarvis from Agent Carter, which makes him the first character to move from Marvel TV to the movies.

There’s also a namedrop of another familiar character, reminding us that they’re around at this time, too. When entering the bunker where Tony’s pinching the Tesseract, Howard’s calling out for “Zola.” Dr. Armin Zola was revealed to have ostensibly switched to S.H.I.E.L.D.’s side after the war, though TWS revealed that he was still secretly working for HYDRA.
