A new Russian behind-the-scenes featurette shows off some newAvengers: Infinity Warfootage. In the latest preview,Don Cheadle’s War Machinecan be seen in some serious danger during the Wakanda battle scene. Marvel fans have been hearing a lot about the epic Wakanda fight sequence, which as Anthony Mackie says is 25 pages of script alone. The number of superheroes on the screen during the giant scene is unprecedented and it looks intense.
The new RussianInfinity Warfeaturette mostly focuses on Wakanda,showing Steve Rogers, Black Widow, James Rhodes, Bruce Banner, and Vision stepping off of a Quinjet in the secluded country. Banner humorously bows when meeting T’Challa for the first time, getting a good laugh out of Rhodes. Elsewhere, there’s unseen footage of the heroes banding together to fight against Thanos and the Outriders who have taken over Wakanda. There’s new footage of shields getting placed as well as the tease of a new scene with Steve Rogers on the Quinjet before touching down to meet T’Challa.
The most interesting footage from the newInfinity Warfeaturette has to be War Machine getting tossed by what we can assume are someOutriders. The edit of the clip makes it look like Thanos is delivering the punch, but as we’ve seen in other clips, this footage of the Mad Titan is actually him delivering what could be a deathblow to Iron Man. War Machine gets tossed down hard, though, leading us to believe that there’s going to be some pretty substantial damage if the character can even get up at all.
As with all of the footage that has been released forInfinity Warso far, the new behind-the-scenes featurette does an amazing job of teasinghow massive the movie is going to be. The Russo Brothers and Marvel boss Kevin Feige revealed that they shot the entire movie on IMAX cameras as opposed to just the action scenes to give the audiences a feeling of full immersion, a thought that was at the forefront of the production ofInfinity Warand the still untitledAvengers 4. Even looking at the trailers and TV spots on a computer gives hints of what the moviegoing experience will be like, which is pretty impressive.
Infinity Waris almost upon us, with the movie now officially one week away from opening as of this writing. However, many fans will see the movie sooner with theThursday night previewsand through other ways. It’s definitely an amazing time to be a Marvel Cinematic Universe fan. Now, let’s just hope that the movie can live up to the immense hype that it has built up for itself. you may check out the brand-new footage fromInfinity Warbelow, thanks to the Russian Marvel YouTube channel.
