Russo Brothers Say Avengers 4 Will Likely Be Even Longer Than Infinity War

Joe and Anthony Russo say Avengers 4 will be even longer than Avengers: Infinity War and if they've considered releasing a 3-hour movie.

Like all of you, I couldn’t be more excited to see Avengers: Infinity War. As a huge fan of what the Russo brothers did on Captain America: Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War, my expectations for Infinity War are probably a bit too lofty, but if anyone can pull this colossal movie off it’s directors Joe and Anthony Russo, screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, and Kevin Feige with his amazing producing team at Marvel Studios.

With the movie set to world premiere Monday night in Hollywood, a massive press junket with the stars and filmmakers was held here in Los Angeles this weekend. Since no one has seen the movie yet, doing the interviews was a bit unusual, so when I sat down with Joe and Anthony Russo yesterday, I decided to use my limited time to focus on the future and not what’s about to come out. After all, since they can’t talk about the specifics of Infinity War, why not focus on what’s next?

During the interview, I tried to get the Russos to confirm if Avengers 4 would be called Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet, if Avengers 4 will be longer than Infinity War, how many post-credits scenes Avengers: Infinity War has, and a lot more. Trust me, if you’re a fan of the Russo brothers, you’ll enjoy watching what they had to say.

Release 3-hour version on BluRay, please!

[Brook]

If the film is like 2 hours and 50 minutes long I don't mind.

[yoavsofer]

I wouldn't mind it being 24 hours long.

[Chris-fjwn]

Interviewer said "infinity gauntlet" and instantly the russos went into kill mode. Theyre comic directors, but i believe theyre past mafia members. This interviewer is done for. Joe was even cracking his knuckles getting ready for carnage.

[zack]

thats fantastic, i dont mind it being 3 hours 30 mins

[gracea]

Infinity war took 2hrs and 30 mins and it feels really short because it is full packed action sci fi. It's a great movie and i barely noticed the 2 hrs and 30 minutes runtime. If the film is really good and the people attention is in it, you wont notice the time at all because you appreciate the story and you are enjoying it which means the film is real good. If the movie has a real good storyline and people is into it and they are so engage of what will happen next, the last thing that they will notice is the time. So i hope Russo brothers will focus on story line and not too much to worry about the runtime. Excited for the avengers 4 and btw, next yr is a long wait lol

No one in their right mind would mind a 3 hour long movie if done right with the pacing. Infinity War was 2:30 but it went by fast as hell.

[Banestudent]

I’m glad Anthony Russo is coming out of his shell because whenever you see interviews with these 2 it’s always Joe answering. My boy Ant👏🏾

[marcpatrol]

Why the interviwers try to get spoilers????
it is like they don't respect the fans at all

[JuanVJuanMe]

I honestly didn’t feel like it was 2 hours 30 min it felt like 30min

[straightouttaalderaan]

Getting so excited. Please give us those extra long reviews and breakdowns! Would love to see a panel just for the red carpet experience and stories, too.

[shaoiliu]

I would GLADLY PAY DOUBLE for a 3h Avengers film. Fuck it. Triple. I'd happily pay 60$ to watch Avengers 4

[danielmedjedovic]

I feel like 2hr and 30 min is quite short for Infinity War, its alot to wrap up but...I trust the Russos and hope everything will be great

[technoir]

Where's the Anthony Mackie interview? 😃 😃

[JACH]

I just saw infinity war, and let me tell you, these guys are geniuses. Idc how long the movie is, as long as these guys are directing it, I'll be fine.

[CoDDisturbed]

Make Avengers 4 around 3 hours long, Russos! Please! We will love you forever!

[thsavior]

Waiting for the interview to miss Mackie or Hiddleston lmao

[bgkid]

I like Frosty....Kinda botched this interview to me

[tankgunner]

We are all here for the Frosty drama, lets be

[obsidian]

The Russo brothers can do no wrong, they are fantastic filmmakers. Infinity War, Winter Soldier, and Civil War are the best of the best.
