The runtime for Avengers: Endgame appears to have been leaked, confirming it as the longest film in Marvel‘s Cinematic Universe.
The film was listed as three hours and two minutes long on AMC theatres’s official website, with the time later being removed from the webpage for the film.
This fits with previous reports that a test screening had exceeded the three-hour mark, with a tweet by Coming Soon writer Alan Cerny suggesting directors Anthony and Joe Russo were considering an intermission.
There’s no indication that this is still the case, although intervals were standard practice during the mid-20th century, including for epics such as Gone with the Wind and Doctor Zhivago.
The most recent interval occurred in the 70mm print of Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight, which clocked in at thee hours and seven minutes.
“Some movies can be 90 minutes and feel like they’re four hours,” Feige told Collider. “And some movies can be three and a half hours and feel like 90 minutes... And every version of Endgame thus far, and the ones that we’re honing in on, feel very good.”
Avengers: Endgame will be released in UK cinemas on 25 April.
