During a recent interview with GMA, which you can watch above, Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier) and Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson/Falcon) hinted that the film will have a longer battle sequence than fans might expect.
“I heard a rumor,” Stan revealed, “that there was a half hour battle sequence.”
“Probably.” Mackie added. “Probably a one-hour battle sequence.”
With both stars last appearing in the large ensemble of Captain America: Civil War, the actors reassured that it will go even further in terms of scale.
“Somebody asked whether or not it was going to match or be bigger than the airport sequence that we had in Civil War.” Stan explained. “Yeah, it will be way better and worse than that.”
“Much bigger.” Mackie echoed. “Imagine twenty-five airports all put together, with 100 Avengers.”
Fans will have to wait and see those impressive battle sequences when Avengers: Infinity War premieres in theaters on May 4, 2018.
