Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige said it’s unlikely you’ll see clips from more than just the first 15 minutes of “Avengers: Endgame” in the marketing and trailers for the film.

What’s going on: Feige told MTV News during a red carpet interview at the Golden Globes that the footage in trailers and sneak peeks will be mostly from the first 15 to 20 minutes of this year’s blockbuster.

“I’d call it somewhat accurate,” Feige said. “As was the case with a lot of our films, this one in particular, being able to generate a lot of excitement without giving away one of the many, many, many secrets. I think the Disney marketing team is the best in the world and we’ll be able to pull it off.”

Compare: As ScreenRant noted, the “Infinity War” trailer showed one of the final scenes of the film, specifically where Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is on the planet Titan after Peter Parker (Tom Holland) disappears after the snap.

“But since at that point, the scene had no context, no one actually thought of the gravitas of that said moment in the movie,” according to ScreenRant.

Flashback: Feige previously said he’s happy with how “Endgame” turned out, ComicBook.com reported.

“We did ‘Infinity War’ and ‘Endgame’ at the same time, but those have been the longest gestating movies we’ve ever made,” Feige said. “Four years now, almost five years. And it was always about delivering on the promise that we had set up. And the way the world received ‘Infinity War’ was amazing, it was exactly what we wanted.”

Context: “Endgame” remains one of the highly anticipated films of the year. A national survey found Americans can’t wait to see the film. It also made our list of movies to see this year.
