Avengers 4: Endgame Trailer Breakdown - 12 Things You Need To See
10. Cap Is Still In Mourning
Marvel Studios
One thing that potentially clues us in on just how much time has passed between Infinity War and Endgame is that se see Steve sobbing by an unknown location. Could it be Bucky's grave, or potentially even someone else's? Only time will tell, but it's clear that the scars of the Decimation are still pretty raw and that it'll take a tremendously long amount of time for things to get back to normal.
There's also the possibility that Cap could just be taking a quiet moment of reflection. We know the team (what remains of it) have relocated to the Avengers compound, and with the weight of the world - nay, the universe - on their shoulders, it's understandable as to why the Captain may want to have a bit of a cry.
Since Winter Soldier, the Russo bros. have made most of their Marvel films character-driven affairs. Given just how attached audiences are to these characters, expect them to take advantage and make this film the most emotional one yet.
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.
