Before any questions were evenasked, Joe Russo dropped a pretty big snippet about the film's development: "We literally just finished the film, two days ago, Monday morning at 6am."

Firstly, that's a painfully long evening. Secondly, it means, for the directors, there's now an agonising wait for it to be unleashed on the world. They actually talked about this, elaborating about the conflicting emotionswith releasing a film; they love that fans finally get to see the film, but are naturallyworried that their vision may not be pulled off - it's Schrödinger's movie.

Of course, locking the movie in early April is no real suggestion of quality -it's not uncommon for films to come down to the line, withSpectrefinished mere days before its first press screening - butat the very least the brothers have pleased the Marvel and Disney suits.
