Avengers 4: Endgame Trailer Breakdown - 12 Things You Need To See
2. A Title Revealed
Marvel Studios
After all the denials, diversions and deflections, the title for Avengers 4 has finally been unveiled, and it's... one... pretty much everyone, really... guessed from the off.
Although the Endgame title is somewhat anticlimactic, it's very fitting and reminds everyone what's at stake this time around. Was it worth all the secrecy? Probably not, but we now have a name to a film and, as far as subtitles go, it's pretty great. Ominous and foreboding sure, but great all the same.
Of course, 'Endgame' itself is a reference to Doctor Strange's closing words in Infinity War. It remains to be seen how his plan comes true, but - as was the case with Infinity War - expect the character to play a key role in the story, even if he spends most of its runtime off camera.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
