'Avengers: Endgame' footage leaked online, directors request #DontSpoilTheEndgame
What's the story
A footage of Avengers: Endgame reportedly has been leaked online, which has the directors worried.
The Russo Brothers- Anthony, and Joe have written a letter to fans requesting them to not spoil the movie for others.
The leaked footage was recorded during a screening and has been described as spoiler-heavy. It is circulating across social media.
Read on to know more about the incident.
Credibility
Fans who saw the footage have claimed that it's real
The leaked footage is five minutes in length and contains some crucial plot points. The picture quality, however, is expectedly horrible.
The film had been kept under strict wraps for the last 3 years and some actors known for giving out spoilers weren't even given complete scripts.
So right after the footage got leaked, the disappointed director-duo posted a letter on social-channels, with #DontSpoilTheEndgame.
The appeal
The Letter: Here's what the directors posted
"The two of us, along with everyone involved in Endgame, have worked tirelessly for the last three years with the sole intention of delivering a surprising and emotionally powerful conclusion to the Infinity Saga. When you see Endgame in the coming weeks, please don't spoil it for others, the same way you wouldn't want it spoiled for you."
"Remember, Thanos still demands your silence."
