Marvel has started releasing new Critic TV spots, heaping praise on the 10 years in the making Marvel Studios epic.

Avengers 4 will definitely have some threads to pick up after Infinity War, but co-director Joe Russo has made it clear this is a self-sufficient film.

"In the way that all Marvel movies sit as a stand-alone this one's a stand-alone," Russo told Fandango. "You know there's an experiment in serialized storytelling, so it certainly adds a correlation to the Avengers' story, but it's written in a way that all the Marvel movies have a correlation to each other. One thing that we set out from the beginning and said that we wanted to do from the beginning, was that we'd been disappointed about times we've sat in part one of part two films and it feels like they just took out a pair of scissors and cut the movie in half. And the first film isn't really structured in a way where there's a beginning, middle, and an end. It feels more set up like a first act and half of a second act for the second movie."

"Avengers 3 has a beginning, middle, and a very definitive end and Avengers 4 does the same," Russo said. "Of course, there will be elements that carry over — and elements of the [Avengers] story that carry over, but I think you'll have a complete emotional experience in each film."

Marvel Studios' Black Panther is now playing in theaters as is Avengers: Infinity War. It will be followed by Ant-Man and The Wasp on July 6, 2018, Captain Marvel on March 8, 2019, the fourth Avengers movie on May 3, 2019, the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming on July 5, 2019, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in 2020.
