If you poke around the edges of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Endgame, you might just find some interesting fan theories and unusual goings-on hiding in the background of certain scenes. However, the Endgame writers, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, want to set the record straight on some of the stranger potential 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Phase 4 set-ups supposedly hiding in the movie. That includes the likes of Namor and that Ben Mendelsohn Sk🌳rull sighting. Prepare ꦍfor disappointment, folks.

While chatting to , the Avengers: Endgame scribes had the chance to turn spoilsport and debunk some of the best fan theories and possible 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Endgame Easter eggs that you might have seen floatꦉing a🥂round the internet.

One of the best (and most plausible) is definitely the Talos Skrull apparently 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:hiding in the background during the scene where Peter Parker returns to school. It sure does look like Ben Mendelsohn’s character and would certainly be one of the most audacious twists to set up a Secret Invasion or another Spidey movie after 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man: Far From Home.

However, the writers say that they don’t believe Talos is in the movie. That’s not to say they’re lying, be🅺cause even the likes of Kevin Feige might be trying to pull a fast one on even t🐷he writers, but it’s the first they’ve heard of it.

As Markus puts it, “There are things people have told me about these movies, which we have worked on for nearly five years, that I've ne🍸ver seen, so I should probably watch it again.”

That’s not a no… but this next one definitely is. Namor isn’t referenced in the movie, guys. Sorry about that. Okoye’s pointed reference to an underwater earthquake – just reading it aloud makes it sound like an origin story, right? – isn’t to do with Namor. “I wish we were that smart,” admits Marku🔯s.

Finally, on the slate of fascinating theories is the idea that the big non-snap deaths across 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame could be reversed. Not a chance, as Markus explains: “𝕴The Gauntlet, as of yet, has ꦛnot brought back anybody to life that wasn't removed by the Gauntlet. Tony was physically killed.”

So, there you have it. No Namor (yet), no Skrulls (we think), and no Iron Man revival. You ca༺n put those theories to bed – but who knows what other secrets are lurking, just waiting🐲 to be uncovered?
