Avengers: Endgame screenings are expected to take place extremely last-minute due to the fact that Marvel Studios is doing its best to avoid spoilers leaking online, but some members of the press were recently treated to the opening eight minutes of the movie.

Now, we've delved deep into that footage to bring you some key new details about the Infinity War sequel, one of which may actually spoil the final fate of a beloved fan-favourite.

The footage also confirmed how long it's been since the Mad Titan snapped his fingers and wiped out half the universe. It's not the one year-plus some fans have predicted, but certainly more than enough time for the consequences of their loss to be felt (and for Captain Marvel to travel back home).

So, to check out these potential spoilers, all you guys have to do is hit the "View List" button!

Endgame Starts 22 Days After Infinity War

There's been an awful lot of speculation about how much time will have passed since we last saw Earth's Mightiest Heroes at the end of Infinity War, and this footage finally cleared things up.

While Tony Stark is recording that message for Pepper Potts, he mentions that they have been stranded in space for 22 days. He and Nebula no doubt left Titan almost immediately after the Mad Titan teleported himself to Wakanda, so that means they've been drifting through space for at least three weeks.

Presumably, the same amount of time will have passed back on Earth for everyone else.

Is Iron Man Dying?

Tony Stark was stabbed through the stomach by Thanos and, yes, there are seemingly going to be some pretty major consequences.

The hero tells Pepper that Nebula has helped him heal but he's contracted some sort of infection following the battle. While he tells his fiancee that he's recovering thanks to Nebula's assistance, it would certainly make sense for his condition to worsen over the course of this adventure, and for Tony to sacrifice himself because he's going to end up dying anyway.

It's hard to say for sure, but it would be a bit of a cop out for Iron Man to simply recover from what initially seemed like a mortal wound.

Repairing The Benatar

A lot of fans were confused by the appearance of the Benatar in the first trailer for Avengers: Endgame, considering it was widely assumed that it got destroyed on Titan after Thanos pretty much tore the planet apart. However, it sounds like Tony and his new ally have been hard at work trying to repair it.

Iron Man reveals that while the fuel cells were damaged at one stage, they've fixed things up well enough to get two days worth of flight time before the oxygen runs out. Someone clearly comes to Rescue them, though, because it really doesn't sound like much more can be done before it's too late.

The Movie's Opening Scene

Those in attendance have said that they saw what appeared to be the movie's opening scene as "Dear Mr. Fantasy" plays over the Marvel Studios logo, before we catch up with Tony Stark and Nebula playing...paper football.

It's a surprisingly light way to open this adventure but, then, what would you expect them to do after being left stranded in space for weeks? Either way, Tony is clearly making good use of Star-Lord's Zune so he can enjoy some tunes.

The Rematch Happens Early

We've now seen some of the second clip shown to reporters, so won't bother going too much into that - but a little more was shown to journalists than what's popped up online.

Apparently, Earth's Mightiest Heroes do decide to head into outer space to launch a counter attack against Thanos and it seems as if we can expect this rematch to go down fairly early on in the proceedings, which is unexpected.

Not reading a word. This was very cool, I love these people. Made me think of something. Six OG Avengers, six Infinity Stones, I wonder if they'll do anything with that..

Gandressmex - 4/10/2019, 7:31 AM

Yo guys what if the fake trailers are glimpses of the alternate futures Dr. Strange viewed. Lol

TheArlington - 4/10/2019, 7:36 AM

@Gandressmex - I’m counting on it. Bottom line, Cap Marvel is going to get her ass whipped immediately by Thanos and he’ll most likely depower her considerably, due to wielding the full might of the stones. She’s only powered by one so he can easily overpower her with the other 5. Just a theory.

Gandressmex - 4/10/2019, 7:42 AM

@TheArlington - I feel like that is gona happen, the trailers and the clip made it seem as in she's a lil cocky maybe even too confident..

DoubleD - 4/10/2019, 7:35 AM

22 DAYS ONLY THATS AWESOME. 15 Days to go :)

TheBlueMorpho - 4/10/2019, 7:35 AM

The opening scene should be Cap shaving off his beard.

Shroombeast - 4/10/2019, 7:41 AM

Did I miss something? Just because he's been stranded in space for 22 days doesn't necessarily mean that's how long it's been since the snap.

Saga - 4/10/2019, 7:41 AM

Tony getting am infection is kinda weird. Sort of too realistic for these films. Its like if in Homecoming tony reveals he lost teeth due to his fight with cap

Dredd97 - 4/10/2019, 7:54 AM

@Saga - Idk, this happens. Captain Mar-vell got cancer. I like when they add some realistic qualities to the world.

GhostDog - 4/10/2019, 7:58 AM

@Saga - Tony was pretty beat to hell after his fight with Cap. He had scars that were still visible in Homecoming. I'm willing to believe his helmet protected him from losing teeth though. I can believe that.

Although, that being said, Im sure he has lost a tooth or two over the years, countless battles lol.

bkmeijer2 - 4/10/2019, 7:44 AM

I really expect the first act to be set in those weeks after the snap, only to have act 2 and three 3 take place a year or more later

TheBlueMorpho - 4/10/2019, 8:06 AM

@MalseMarcel -

I'm thinking that support group Cap is in or shown in that Super Bowl spot takes place after they get whooped by Thanos after they decide to go after him.

Remember in the 1st trailer when him and Black Widow are in the Quinjet. And she says "This will work" and Cap says "I know it will. Cause I don't know what I'll do if it doesn't". Well it doesn't work and a dejected Cap goes to a support group to cope with it.

TheArlington - 4/11/2019, 10:20 AM

@TheBlueMorpho - I agree with you 1000%. This is definitely what happens. Plus, Captain Marvel gets killed in that initial encounter. Bet on it.
