Wait, have we only been waiting a year for the epic cliffhanger that started with Avengers: Infinity War? I don't know about you, but I would have sworn it’s been longer. Plot twist(?): This is Quantum Realm’s world and we’re just living in it. This impatience Marvel fans collectively feel is probably because Avengers: Endgame has easily become one of the most heavily anticipated movies in the history of film. The movie does follow over a decade of build-up and follows 21 other films starring these characters.

The event film has fans guessing left and right about what exactly will happen… and getting real creative too. Have you heard the viral one in which Ant-Man apparently crawls up Thanos’ butt to explode him from the inside out? Good stuff. With so many theories, you’d think some fans have actually already guessed what will happen by the time Endgame closes. Not according to the cast. Here’s what Robert Downey Jr. had to say:

I guarantee you there is no way anybody could guess what's going to happen.

Okay, RDJ! Have a little faith in us! We must have guessed at least some of what goes down in the culmination by now. One popular theory suggests the remaining Avengers will decide to travel back in time via the Quantum Realm in order to reverse the damage Thanos has done. It’s the most logical alternative! Maybe we have it all wrong, though? More of the Avengers have weighed in on the unpredictable and grand spectacle awaiting fans with Endgame.

Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man): Infinity War was nuts, but this one is going to be our finest hour.Chris Evans (Captain America): Every time you think Marvel's pulled every single trick out of the bag, they actually saved the best stuff for this one.Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow): These are the highest stakes that the Avengers have ever faced.Brie Larson (Captain Marvel): This is the end of the fireworks show, the grand finale.Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye): The storytelling is insane, you just don't know what to expect.

Check out some of the Endgame cast go higher, further, and faster with the movie’s expectations with the film’s newest featurette ahead of its release later this month:

As if the anticipation isn’t high already, these are some crazy huge statements from the main Avengers, who seem confident fans will be impressed and surprised with the outcome. Given all that’s resting on this particular MCU installment, I would be personally very extremely impressed and a little shocked if Endgame delivers on completely throwing audiences for a loop on this one -- after all this hype -- but they have pulled it off before.

What do you think? Will Endgame blow your expectations out of the water after already being one of the most anticipated movies ever? The film has a lot of ground to cover even in its three-hour runtime, perhaps including the end to Captain America’s on-screen story. Let us know your thoughts below!
