The release date of Avengers: Endgame is just around the corner and the cast and crew of the film are leaving no stone unturned in promoting the film. Co-director Joe Russo even came down to India to promote the film. During a press conference held at Los Angeles, the team left quite a few seats empty to honour the fallen heroes who could not make it alive after the final snap of Thanos at the end of Avengers: Infinity War.
The event was hosted by Jon Favreau who started the event by saying, “Clearly, things look a little different in the post-‘Infinity War’ Marvel Cinematic Universe." He revealed that the empty seats are a sign of tribute to the fallen Avengers. He said, “Post-Snap, there’s a few empty seats, so I’d like to welcome back the people that you see here onstage.” Check out a few pictures from the event.
