Marvel Studios kicked off additional photography on next year’s Avengers 4 this past week, and it seems this latest round of filming is more than just your standard reshoots.
Speaking to The Marvelists podcast (via Comicbook.com), Mark Ruffalo has revealed that the Marvel blockbuster is still a work in progress, and that the Russos are still shaping and tweaking the story based upon the feedback to Avengers: Infinity War.
“We’re doing reshoots starting in September, and then we’ll go back into the international tour, we’ll go on tour,” said Ruffalo. “Then you guys will get the second installment. Which we don’t even know what it’s gonna be yet. We’re not just doing reshoots; we’re going to finish the movie, which we really didn’t get to finish totally when we left it last year.”
“I don’t even know that they [the Russos] really know exactly,” he continued. “Some of it is happening while we’re there. It’s pretty amazing. And we’ll shoot some stuff and a few days later come back and reshoot it cause we wanna take it in another direction. It’s a very living organism, even as we approach it being a locked picture, we’re still working on it.”
Ruffalo’s comments would likely be cause for concern if he were talking about any other project or studio, but Marvel and the Russo brothers have certainly earned our trust these past few years – so much so that there’s little doubt that Avengers 4 is in anything but safe hands.
