With Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War, directors Anthony and Joe Russo have amassed a rather incredible Marvel resume, but according to the brothers themselves, the best may be yet to come.
“You know, we’re very proud of it,” Joe told Deadline when asked for a few words on the as-yet-untitled Avengers 4. “I think ultimately Avengers 4 may be our best work for Marvel. I think we’ve grown with every movie that we’ve made there. We’ve grown with the characters. We’ve grown with the cast. As filmmakers we’re very happy and very excited with the movie. I feel like with Avengers 4, because it was made before there was any response to Avengers 3, it’s really pure in that regard. The storytelling is very pure. It’s without any sort of external noise creeping in at.”
Now of course, the Russos aren’t going to come out and say the film will be a disappointment, or that it’s not quite as good as the last one, but given their track record with the MCU so far there doesn’t appear to be any reason to doubt that Avengers 4 will live up to – and maybe even succeed – our expectations. Here’s hoping anyway…
